Company Description X is a specialist provider of damp, mould, and timber restoration services, backed by over 40 years of combined industry experience. The company focuses on protecting residential and commercial properties from moisture, decay, and structural damage through professional, guaranteed treatments. X works closely with clients to diagnose issues accurately and deliver long-lasting, reliable solutions. Team members benefit from working in a knowledgeable, supportive environment with a strong emphasis on technical excellence and customer satisfaction.
Role Description The Damp Surveyor is a full-time hybrid role, with a mix of on-site surveys and some work from home for reporting and administration. Day-to-day responsibilities include visiting residential and commercial properties to assess damp, mould, and timber conditions, identifying root causes, and recommending appropriate remedial treatments. The role involves taking detailed measurements, photographs, and notes, preparing clear survey reports and quotations, and explaining findings to clients in a straightforward, professional manner. The Damp Surveyor will collaborate with the operations team and technicians to plan and schedule works, ensure compliance with relevant standards, and maintain accurate records. This position requires regular travel to client sites, adherence to health and safety practices, and consistent, high-quality customer service.
Qualifications
- Experience in damp, mould, timber, or building pathology surveys, with the ability to diagnose moisture-related issues and recommend appropriate treatments.
- Strong technical understanding of building construction, property maintenance, and structural integrity, ideally supported by industry training or certifications.
- Proficiency in preparing survey reports, using digital tools for data collection (e.g., moisture meters, tablets, CRM systems), and managing documentation accurately.
- Excellent communication and customer service skills, including the ability to explain technical findings clearly to clients and collaborate effectively with colleagues.
- Good organizational and time-management skills, with the ability to plan site visits, prioritize workloads, and work independently in a hybrid environment.
- Valid UK driving licence and willingness to travel regularly across Dorset, Hampshire, and surrounding areas.
- Relevant qualifications in surveying, construction, or a related field are beneficial; previous experience in damp proofing or remedial works is an advantage.
- Commitment to safe working practices, attention to detail, and a proactive approach to continuous learning and professional development.
