Pest Control
Our pest control services address infestations of rats, mice, wasps, bedbugs, and other pests using humane, environmentally responsible methods. We conduct thorough site surveys to identify root causes and implement targeted treatments. Commercial clients benefit from discreet operations minimising business disruption while ensuring compliance with health and safety regulations.
Damp Proofing
Specialist damp proofing solutions tackle rising damp, condensation, and penetrating damp through cavity drain membranes and cementitious coatings. We provide guaranteed treatments for basement tanking and structural waterproofing. Our approach includes identifying moisture sources and implementing ventilation improvements to prevent recurrence in domestic and commercial properties.
Timber Treatment
Comprehensive timber services address dry rot, wet rot, and woodworm infestations affecting structural integrity. Treatments include antifungal applications, affected wood replacement, and moisture control solutions. We assess timber decay stages to determine appropriate interventions, ensuring long-term protection for period properties and modern constructions alike.
Structural Waterproofing
Structural waterproofing protects below-ground spaces using cavity drain systems and waterproof membranes. We specialise in new build and existing basement tanking, complying with building regulations. Our methods prevent water ingress in residential cellars and commercial underground facilities while addressing associated masonry repairs.
Bird Proofing
Bird proofing services deter pigeons, seagulls, and starlings from roosting on commercial buildings and residential properties. We install physical deterrents like spikes and netting while adhering to wildlife protection laws. Solutions prevent property damage from bird droppings and nesting activities across urban and rural locations.

Called Nathan due to a problem in our loft. He came out really quickly and set up a camera to see what we were dealing with, then used the correct process to rid them (mice). He was always at the end of the phone to listen to my concerns and came out a few times as required. Always prompt, polite and updated me when I could not personally be there. Would not hesitate to recommend or use again!

I moved into a new property and not long after found there were fleas, I contacted Nathan who was really helpful, he asked for photos and supplied a trap to ensure that the appropriate treatment would be used and to avoid unnecessary contact prior to treatment during the restrictions in place for the pandemic. Nathan arranged a time to suit and was on time, he gave clear instructions on post treatment to make sure it was as effective as possible and arranged the return visit when he was there during the first treatment. Nathan followed up to make sure I was happy and the treatment had worked. I
