Tenant "We've had the council round and the damp specialist and they say it will dry out now that the drains are fixed" Our surveyor "eh, no, it looks like a leak to me".... 5 minutes later and the bath panel is off...... it pays to use a @PCAPropertyCare member.

A good working well together meeting. Kindly facilitated by HB Projects at their Bradford site. As an SME it really helps when bigger construction firms reach out to help us comply with health and safety legislation and best practice. #notimetolose #TimeToChange #healthandsafety

Oh dear. The small extractor fan to the wet room in this house struggles to move air through over 3m of convoluted and flexible duct. Condensate forms in the duct, mould grows on the wet room ceiling and elsewhere in the house due to the poor extract rate. #mould

Sub-floor ventilation is crucial.... air-tight homes are a modern phenomenon and the idea doesn't transfer well to old, poorly insulated housing stock... wet rot or worse can be the result of this daft action. #Leeds #damp #surveying

It's always nice when a new van receives its company livery. Thank you @paulturnersigns of Garforth #Leeds another great job!

What's hidden behind the skirting board? In this case a severe #dryrot outbreak. Dry rot can cause widespread damage to structural timbers. To deal with this you need correct diagnosis; a full, detailed survey and a skilled workforce. That's Brick-Tie! #PCA #survey #Yorkshire

Lots and lots of damp proofing going on around Yorkshire. Here's Julie with a delivery of #dryzone and #drybase from our friends at @SafeguardEurope The most professional service in Leeds, Sheffield and York.

A borescope is useful for wall tie inspection. However, diagnosis takes some skill and experience - the visible section in the cavity is at a fairly early stage of corrosion. Exposure of the tie in the bed-joint reveals a horror story. #wallties #helifix #bricktie

What's the point of replacing a rotten floor joist, carefully isolating it from a damp wall but failing to fix the cause of the damp and as seen, providing only 10mm of bearing for the new end? #misplacedingenuity

A lovely poured bitumen DPC under a 120 year old church in Leeds. This DPC is working a treat. The extensive dry rot and wet rot found by our surveyors has been caused by poor maintenance. #damp #dryrot #Leeds

Who says Bryan is too old to do a full sub-floor inspection? It was worth it - dry rot and wet rot under this former Church in Leeds. #dryrot #timberdecay #leeds
