    I am very impressed and pleased with all the work that Aquaproof Ltd have carried out for my property. Damian provides a reliable, highly skilled service.


    A burst pipe caused serous water damage throughout the bungalow, requiring a complex program of works over 7 months to resolve multiple issues. 


    Damian kept me informed every step of the way, discussing all the options and offering good information and advice when needed. The work has been carried out to a very high standard, and all the timescales given have been realistic, and Damian has certainly gone the extra mile! 


    I have very much appreciated how clear, honest and straightforward he has been in all his communications about every aspect of the process. He also ensured all necessary checks were carried out and has provided all certificates. I am grateful to Damian for the beautiful renovation, and for his lovely combination of professionalism and warmth. 


    I have no hesitation in recommending Aquaproof Ltd.

    1st August 2023


    Damian and his team are excellent at their jobs, nothing is ever too much trouble and they have a great eye for the smaller details too!

    Damian was originally supposed to start work in January but down to things out of both of our control he couldn’t start until May/June, throughout this whole time

    Damian remained committed to the job and has been right up until the last day. 


    He has kept us updated Continuously and has helped us work out what works best and

    where for the space we have. He is very fairly priced and doesn’t add unexpected costs to the bill. Damian is clearly very experienced in not only damp proofing but

    building work also, this shows through his knowledge he openly shares when talking

    layouts/designs. 


    If we needed anymore work doing we would 100% without a doubt

    ring Damian and his team first.

    Finally, a massive thank you to Damian and his team for delivering us the most perfect house!

    Incredibly impressed with Damian and the whole team that completed the

    damp proofing work, Roof repairs and fitted extractors and possative air unit.

    Everyone put in an immense effort to get everything completed quickly and to

    a very high standard. Everyone had a 'hustle' work ethic, constantly busy to

    get the job done quickly. The attention to detail was great, with each piece of

    work and each room affected checked over afterwards to make sure it was to

    our satisfaction.

    I cannot fault them in any way.

    Great work.

    Many thanks

    A friend recommended Damian to help with a damp problem in my parents house. He and Lorraine were lovely to deal with from the start. Responsive and helpful by phone and in person.

    We had roofers, wall painters, plasterers and damp proofers. They all arrived

    at the time agreed, in nice clean vans, parked up sensibly and were all very

    pleasant cheery people. Floors, cupboards and pictures were all covered up

    and cleared up afterwards, nothing was too much trouble and no radios!

    The cost of work was very reasonable and we felt that we had their full

    attention to get the job done.

    I am asking Damian to do my house next.

    Everything sorted, receipt received, all within a month of asking.

    We definitely recommend Damian.

    Damian, Lorraine and their team were excellent! They carried out extensive

    carried this out at short notice, but on time. They can be trusted to undertake

    the work competently, professionally and to a very high standard. Nothing was

    too much trouble. The property was cleaned after the work - (thank you

    Lorraine). I would have no hesitation in either using them again, or

    I really cannot recommend D. Moore Aquaproof enough. I called after a

    recommendation from a friend and from the first phone call and free quotation,

    Damien was friendly, transparent and helpful.

    We weren’t anticipating as huge a job as we ended up needing, but everything

    was well explained and organised—from contractors repairing external walls to

    fitting skirting boards and tidying everything up we’ve been so impressed.

    Damien has flawlessly managed the whole project. Everything happened on

    time (if not faster!) and around us. Nothing has been too much trouble, and

    amazingly I don’t seem to be able to ask too many stupid questions either(!)

    The work looks absolutely amazing and I’m so confident with the standard and

    guarantees too. D. Moore has given us our peace of mind back about our

    house—thank you all so much.

  • Total refurb on old, neglected new home.

    ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐

    12 Sep 2022


    Following an initial damp proofing job in our kitchen- Damian and his teamwho were all great- then undertook a complete house renovation project on our very old, very neglected new home. This involved a new damp proof course throughout the ground floor, new plaster work throughout the whole house, new electrics, complete re-plumb, plus bathrooms and toilets, roofing and guttering repair and replacement, remodelled bedroom with en-suite, new ceilings plus coving and ceiling roses. Effective clear communication throughout ensured that we knew what was being done, by whom and when and how long it would take- which helped enormously with planning furniture delivery and carpet fittings. Damian and his team were particularly supportive and positive throughout the 7 months of work. They were totally trustworthy and a pleasure to make cups

    Damian and his team (of 4) carried out some internal and some external damp-proofing work to a high standard. Real attention was made downstairs to provide floor protection and sheeting to protect from traffic & dust whilst the work was being carried out ... and I am very happy with the work carried out itself. The French drain (35 metres) installed along the outside of the house was completed to a high standard, with all of his team being really helpful, friendly and professional. Sound and knowledgeable advise from Damian. I would not hesitate to recommend you to friends.

    ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐

    Dear Damien, 

    Just wanted to drop a few words to thank you and your team for the work you carried out on our new home.

    I would like to note that the damp course work, woodworm treatment and the large scale plastering I found to be of the highest quality.

    Not only did you complete the work on time it was very reassuring that you & your team did a full days work. You were not flitting in between jobs as I have experienced in the past.

    I would have no resitation in recommending you to other potential clients/customers.


    If I have any further need for your services, I will be in touch.

    We have traded with D Moore Dampproofing for over 10 years in the capacity of supplier and customer.


    As a supplier we are more than happy to have had this company as an approved contractor, over this period we have had no complaint clients or claims from guarantees issued. When the opportunity arises we will always pass on leads to this company in confidence that the work will be completed to specification and to the customers satisfaction.


    D Moore Dampproofing has also carried out work for me, I have been satisfied with the work and effieciency of the operators on site.


    J Beadman, MD

  • Impressed

    ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐


    I initially employed this company to carry damp proofing/tanking on the whole of the ground floor as part of a renovation project.


    As it became apparent they could offer an almost complete building service; Damien quoted for additional work to include: Laying of new insulated floor, woodworm treatment, loft insulation, inner wall insulation, various reconstruction work; carpentry including new skirting, external paving and drainage.


    I have to say his costings were unquestionably very competitive.


    I was impressed as to how Damien went about his work; immediately organising and setting his men to task as soon as arriving on site. He and his colleagues worked in an orderly fashion, treating my home with repect and completed the job within the agreed time frame.


    I would not hesitate in giving Moore builders further work, based on the overall service (price being secondary).


    K Knowles

  • Very Happy

    ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐


    We have recently made use of the services of Damien Moore and his team of tradesmen and workmen to undertake remedial work within our Grade II listed home and are pleased to recommend their services to you.


    We were very happy with the manner in which Damien and his colleagues conducted themselves in particular with care they took to keep the premises clean and tidy, their punctuality and reliability. We also found them willing to be flexible with regard to changes of plan or materials and willing to rework if necessary to ensure our satisfaction.


    Finding a good builder you can rely on and communicate easily with is not always easy but we feel that we found that in Damien Moore.

    Damien Moore has carried out extensive work for me in recent months including dampproofing, plastering, insulation, brickwork, flooring, painting, carpentry, woodworm treatment, electrics and plumbing.


    All of this work was executed to a high standard. Mr Moore provided detailed quotes quickly and the work was all completed within his time schedules. His management of the different aspects of the work and the different trades involved was effieicient. The workers he employed were skilled, worked together well and left the premises clean and tidy. They always took care to protect carpets, etc.


    I was more than satisfied with Mr Moore's services.

  • They have done an excellent job

    ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐

    Damien Moore and his team have just completed two weeks of damp proofing two rooms and the kitchen of this very old house and they have done an excellent job. Damp proofing is inevitably a process that involves considerable upheaval, with the removal of plaster and skirting boards and lifting of carpets, resulting in a great deal of dust. All this was managed expertly, with great care for the property and as much protection as possible of the areas treated and the surroundings. Any questions we had were answered and Damien kept us informed of progress throughout the work, with a quick phone call about any decisions required.


    Most of all he remained cheerful right through the work and dealt promptly with one or two changes that needed to be made. My wife and I are very pleased with what Damien and his men have done and we will happily recommend him without hesitation to anyone wishing to have work carried out reliably and efficiently. We would certainly make use of his services again.

  • We felt completely 'safe' in their hands

    ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐

    We have recently had quite a lot of work done at our Village Hall inclduing a Damp Proof course, kitchen re-fit, walls plastered, a substantial amount of electrical work and redecorating.

    When we thought we just needed a small area of our kitchen damp proofing and the wall reskimming, we started to get a number of companies to visit.

    Damien Moore was the company we chose and we would highly recommend them, they were extremely helpful and we felt completely 'safe' in their hand! Damien and his team were very quick and efficient and nothing was too much trouble, they were clean and tidy and did exactly as asked and we found them to be extremely competitive in their price, we will definitely be asking them back to do the rest of the works needed in our community hall.

    I would like to thank you and your contractors for the way in how the work has been completed. The house has always been left tidy and given the extent of the work I was delighted by aspects such as dust management etc. I was anticipating the entire house being affected but this hasn't been the case. As we have "lived" in smaller areas this has been greatly appreciated.


    I am also grateful for your advice throughout the work and your quick response to organise the right contractors to keep the work moving.

  • Damp proofing work carried out

    ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐


    Damian Moore was recently recommended to me by another tradesman as I needed to have the ground floor of my house re-damp proofed, having had it done previously by a less than adequate company! I found Damian to be friendly and approachable when he came to do a quote, and the rest of his team were also the same. Having plaster removed is quite a dusty, dirty job but every day before they left they cleared up and did not treat my property disrespectfully.

    I admit I am no expert, but I was very pleased with all the work carried out – the plastering and skirting boards look great, the level of workmanship is very good.

    Any questions I had for Damian or any of his team were fully answered so I was never worried about the job whilst it was being undertaken.

    Finding a decent tradesman who you can trust to do a good job these days can be difficult, but Damian (and his team!) is one of those - I have kept Damian’s contact details and will definitely be passing it on to anyone who needs any work doing; in fact I have already given it to one person, and will always ring him first if I need any work doing myself in the future.


    A Rogers

  • Nothing was too much trouble for Damian

    ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐


    I initially had three quotes for a rising damp problem but I quickly knew Damian was the person for the job. His competitive price, knowledge & experience of dealing with rising damp & his cheerful manner set him apart. The work was done by Damian & his team to a very high standard & I was kept informed of the progress throughout, which was important to me as I didn't live near the property.


    I rarely give recommendations but in this instance I feel it is more than deserved as reliable, highly organised, good builders are not easy to find in my opinion. I would recommend Damian without hesitation.


    S Cooper

  • Hard workers who keep their word

    ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐


    Damien's quote for the work of tanking our cellar was reasonable and even though the cellar was under several inches of water when he first saw it he reasured us that he had seen worse and his firm could cope with re-establishing the integrity of the cellar. After testing the depth of the water beneath the floor, he returned, a month later, when it had dried out sufficiently.

    His team were efficient, polite and hardworking, even though our cellar was less than head height with uneven footing.

    When water broke through the cellar floor after the first layer was laid, Damien bought in extra men and assured us that he wouldn't leave us until the problem had been overcome (even though the end date over-ran his other scheduled work).


    We have no hesitation in recommending Damien and his workforce to anyone considering works done, they are friendly, helpful, polite and above all hard workers who keep their word and complete their brief, most efficiently and at reasonable cost.


     

  • Full damp proof course installed

    ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐


    We recently had a full damp proof course installed in the entire ground floor of our house. This was quite a lot of work and it was over the Christmas period.


    We tried other companies in the area and had conflicting quotes and more than one confusing survey. When I contacted Damien Moore he came over as soon as humanly possible. He gave me a straight forward and down-to-earth quote there and then without any hassle.

    The work was done quickly and efficiently at a very busy time of year and he co-ordinated it around our schedule happily. Once the work was done he left the house neat and tidy and even made sure the skirting boards matched. I couldn't recommend him highly enough.


    Clare B

  • ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐


    Thank you so much for all the work you have done for me. It was great to have you co-ordinating all the different parts of what became quite a big renovation project.

    I particularly appreciated the way you kept me up to date with progress and made me feel in control of the whole process. I was in new territory here and your advice was invaluable.

    You have a great team working for you. All their work has been to a high standard and you all have an eye for detail. The neighbours have commented on how friendly you all were and were very happy to have you around. Thanks too for being so patient with all the curious children who wanted to "help"! 

    I am very glad to have found you and will certainly be recommending you to anyone who asks me if I know a good builder and of course I know where to come for any work I need doing in the future.

    I don't get to do this very often but credit where credit is due.

    I picked you at random from a google search, never having had to use a damp proofing company before.


    All I can say is I am glad I did. You and your team have done a great job and even cleaned up properly at the end!


    The plaster finish between the new and old is almost invisible and all the new skirting has been done to a very high standard.

    ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐


    Damien carried out a number of building works for me. Mainly his firm extended my kitchen but also did some insulation, roofing and garden work for me as well as replacing windows and doors.

    From start to finish, I've been so impressed with the standard of the work and how lovely the workmen have been - super helpful, really polite and hard working. They always cleared up after themselves and left the area neat and tidy after a day's work. Damian Kept me regularly up to date with the works and I found him really approachable.

    I'm so happy with everything that they have done and I would highly recommend them to anyone looking to carry out improvements to their home.

    This letter is to thank you and tell you how pleased we are on the renovations of our rental property in Fleckney Leicestershire which covered both damp prrofing/Carpentry and decoration all of which has been completed to a high standard within budget and most importantly on time which has now allowed us to market the property in summer.


    As I stated, the renovation project was especially difficult for us being based 130 miles away in Essex, as we know the previous tenant had left the property in a terrible condition but your team quickly took away our nervousness due to prompt communication/cear schedule of works and a proactive approach to extra work required.

    It looks amazing. The work is fantastic. 


    Damian could not have been more helpful. I could ring and text anytime he was always there to help. I would not hesitate to use him again and I can highly recommend him. I would give more than five stars if I could.

  • problems with damp in our living room and kitchen

    ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐

    6 October 2023

    Honest, reliable, efficient and thoroughly professional.

    We had problems with damp in our living room and kitchen, some due to water

    ingress from a poor-condition chimney. After discussion and receipt of a

    detailed quote, Damian's team arrived promptly to fix the chimney, remove wall

    plaster/skirting boards, then tank and, some days later, plaster the affected

    walls.

    Damien's team was thorough in providing total protection to floors, furniture,

    etc., prior to the work being carried out. After the first day's preparation of the

    walls, all rubbish was removed from the site, leaving no unsightly mess in the

    drive.

    Damian was quick to respond to messages and provided clear explanations of

    the reasons for all work being undertaken.

    Like most people, we were nervous about anyone carrying out such work on

    our lovely home, but we needn't have been:

    Damian's company are consummate professionals and completed all the work

    to an extremely high standard and bang on time. We would recommend them

    without reservation.

    Thank you, Damian and your team.
