❌The Problem with "Free" Surveys
In the damp industry, a "free" survey is often just a disguised sales pitch. Because these surveyors aren't paid for their time, they are under pressure to find problems that require expensive, often unnecessary chemical treatments—like damp-proof course (DPC) injections—to make the visit profitable.
🖥️Being Professional
At Maljon, we charge a professional fee for our surveys because our value lies in accurate diagnosis, not a sales quota. By paying for our time, you ensure an unbiased investigation using advanced tools like thermal imaging and moisture mapping to find the actual root cause of the issue, whether it’s a hidden leak, poor ventilation, or rising damp.
🏡Integrity in Remediation
While we are fully equipped to carry out remedial works, we only undertake what is strictly necessary. If the solution is a simple maintenance fix—such as clearing a blocked air brick or repairing a gutter—that is exactly what we will report. Our goal is to protect your property's structural integrity, not to inflate a quote with "ghost" repairs.
💵Long-Term Savings
A paid survey is a small upfront investment that can save you thousands in the long run. By identifying the correct issue the first time, you avoid the cost of "quick-fix" treatments that fail to work. You receive a transparent, evidence-based report that gives you—and your lender—total peace of mind.
