MY ROLE
I founded the business in 1996, and have developed it to become among the most recognised and established building preservation companies in Cornwall.

WHAT OUR CLIENTS SAY
“we can hardly believe our old, damp cellar is now a wonderfully dry, cosy games room for the kids”
“The team were efficient and polite, and did a really great job. They were very tidy too”
“David is refreshingly free of any tendency to over-specify or to recommend work which is unnecessary”
“We had been confused by conflicting advice about our damp issue previously, but David really understood what we wanted and what our old house needed”.
“we were very pleased with the service, from start to finish”.
“We always contract David Reynolds for all our basement waterproofing jobs. He’ll always design a simple and effective system and we like the insured long-term guarantee”.
CORONAVIRUS - COVID.19.
With the Coronavirus risk presently escalating significantly, surveys and site inspections are largely curtailed and will be considered strictly on a risk-assessed basis, and only to unoccupied properties or open construction sites and when considered to be urgent and strict criteria will apply.
All non-urgent inspections and surveys are now curtailed until further notice.
WAITING TIME
Should your enquiry qualify as being suitably urgent and where safety of all parties can be ensured, current lead-time for surveys and inspections is approximately 3-4 weeks depending on location.
In many cases we can provide advice and estimates based on sufficient photographs or drawings etc, which can be emailed to us directly for a desktop inspection.
We are still providing our popular desktop waterproofing design service.
