As he was the only surveyor who was able to get down under the floor and ruled out ground water but queried the pipework,we are having our plumber return on monday 23rd ,after his holiday to investigate the matter thoroughly. We don't think that the solum needs to be tackled as things stand right now however, we were impressed with Mr Stewart who does seem to be a 'wise' surveyor! S Findlay" Testimonial: Grateful for the quick, professional and friendly fashion our works were dealt with... From: Ruth and James Hilton Date: 16.02.12 "I just wanted to let you know that the sale of our house completed today. This was in no small part due to the hard work everyone at Wise Property Care put in on our behalf. We are very grateful for the quick, professional and friendly fashion our works were dealt with. Because of the timescales, I know we put the schedule under a little pressure but you always accommodated our requests and as a result we managed to conclude the sale. Whenever we called the office whoever we spoke to was friendly and helpful. We would unreservedly recommend Wise in the future. Please pass on our thanks to everyone in the team. With many thanks to you all and best wishes for the future, Ruth and James Hilton-Robinson" Testimonial: Pleasure working with your team...

The staff and our clients have been exceptionally impressed with all survey reports, together with the actual works carried out by yourself and your team.

Kind regards Nikki Coutts Branch Manager" Testimonial: Thank you for your invaluable advice... From: Ms P Gormez Grant Date: 15.08.11 "Thank you so much for your invaluable advice regarding the damp and mould issue in our cupboard. As the damage is extremely limited we do not think it warrants the expense and hassle of a complete cupboard rehaul, so we will deal with it by using a mould removal killer and anti damp paint as recommended by you. Thanking you once more for your expertise and advice. Best regards Mr and Mrs Grant" Testimonial: Very professional, polite and tidy... From: Kinnell Family Date: 03.08.11 "Just a quick thanks to the team at Wise Property Care and Lynx plumbing. It was nice to see decent tradesmen working in my house.

Many thanks, The Kinnell family" Testimonial: Our thanks to your team From: Dr Andrew Staines Date: 16.02.11 "I was just emailing to say how good the positive pressure system you installed in our house has been over the last year. We had a bad case of condensation and mould in our sandstone terrace flat (Flat 2, 59 Feus Rd, Perth) and it was hard to see a viable solution. However after finding out about positive pressure systems and getting you in to assess our problem and install a system the problem has reduced dramatically. It' is not often I get back in touch with companies after having some work done but i'd just like to say thanks for solving our condensation problem and associated damp/mould. Dr Andrew Staines" Testimonial: Our thanks to your team From: Mr and Mrs Spencer Date: 20.12.10 "Please convey our thanks to all at Wise Property Care for the work carried out our floor in our kitchen, especially to your technicians Craig and Stephen for their efficient way they dealt with things in the bad weather. All the best for 2011 Mr and Mrs Spencer" Testimonial: pleased with the work From: Mrs Ferguson Date: 01.11.10 "Just a quick note to say how pleased I am with the work which has been done at my home. It all went very smoothly thanks to Stuart McGinlay's organisational skills and it certainly removed a lot of stress for me. Your technician Peter Morris was great and dealt very well with the other sub contactors you organised including Jamie the plasterer, Steven the plumber, the stonemason and the drain cleaner...who were all excellent. I hope I can sit back now and wait for the house to sell. Thanks again, Kind regards Mrs Ferguson" Testimonial: impressed with your surveyor From: Mrs J Bruce Date: 22.10.10 "Just writing to say how very impressed I am with your service. I rang the Dundee number yesterday and spoke to a very helpful lady and today your surveyor, Mr Stewart, came to look at the problem. He checked thoroughly and assured me that there was no woodworm in the area, he took his time to answer my questions and then said there would be no charge for his visit. I have kept the business card and would not hesitate to call the company in the future and will certainly recommend you to others. Thank you again. Kind regards Mrs J Bruce" Testimonial: outstanding service from your surveyor From: C.Bell Date: 10.09.10 "Following a visit from your surveyor, Roddy McKenzie, this afternoon I felt I had to write to say how impressed I was with the professional service offered by Wise Property Care. Not being in the trade myself I was somewhat alarmed when a joiner told me this morning that I had a serious damp issue that would affect the work he was undertaking for me. I wasn't quite sure where to turn but when I called your Barrhead office I was told within a short time that a surveyor would be out to have a look at the problem this afternoon. Roddy was both friendly and extremely professional, and immediately put my mind at ease. He went that extra mile to check out various potential issues and I felt his honest, no nonsense, advice was a breath of fresh air. At this stage there does not appear to be any remedial work required, however, I would have no hesitation in coming back to Wise Property Care should I need any further assistance regarding my property, nor would I have any problem in recommending your services to others. Thank you again for your quick and professional response. Kind regards C Bell" Testimonial: condensation mould kit and helpful surveyor From: Mrs Odette Raymond Gladstone Date: 02.08.10 "To whom it may concern "My flat was recently vacated by the tenants and when I went to see my property I was very shocked and upset to discover that the walls were covered everywhere by a thick black fungus! I was in despair as to how to proceed cleaning this growth until my husband found Wise Property Care after a search on the internet. We contacted the company and the area surveyor, a Mr Derek Marshall, called to see the damage. He was very kind, helpful and very reassuring and identified the problem as being caused by condensation due to a total lack of ventilation. He advised us to use one of the company's condensation mould kits. We purchased this product and followed Mr Marshall's instructions to the letter and the results were really fantastic! The walls are now back to normal! I can warmly recommend Wise Property Care to anyone who has a problem with either condensation mould or fungus and cannot thank Mr Marshall enough for his help and advice. Yours gratefully Mrs Odette Rayond Gladstone" Testimonial: outstanding service From: J. Jamieson Date: 22.07.10 Dear Sir/Madam, Just wanted to let you know that we had outstanding service from the team that came to Gower St to fix the damp problem on the back wall. You technicians Craig Murray, James Pender and Gordon the electrician all turned up on time (they actually were early most days waiting to get started), and were really helpful. They minimised any mess and carried out the work in a really professional manner. I was really impressed." Thank you for your help. J. Jamieson" Testimonial: helpfulness of your Glasgow team From: J. Ralston Date: 09.06.10 "I would like to pass on my sincere thanks to Wise Property Care and especially Derek MacLeod who's organisation of the job was first class. He pulled out all the stops to get the job done and it really puts my faith into companies like Wise Property Care who delivered a first class service." Testimonial: Helpfulness of your surveyor From: J. McDonald Date: 27.05.10 "Dear Sir/Madam, I am just writing to commend your surveyor Roddy McKenzie. His helpfulness an advice put my mind at rest and nothing was too much trouble for him. He also arrived on both days when he said he would. It was a pleasure to deal with your company and I would have no hesitation in recommending Wise Property Care to friends and family. Thank you for your help and especially to Roddy McKenzie. Your Faithfully J. McDonald" Teatimonial: surveyor visit From: B. Preston Date: 05.04.10 "Dear Sirs My wife and I felt we had to write to say how pleased we were with the service we received from your company. Your surveyor arrived on time and carried out a well informed survey in a very courteous manner despite the survey being a bit of a waste of time in that it did not confirm our worst fear of severe water damage and rot. Despite this Michael completed the survey and gave us useful advice on how to treat the problem and what to look for in case of a recurrence at that site or elsewhere in the house, which is 150 years old. You can rest assured that should we, or our neighbours have a problem in the future we will not hesitate to call you. It was a pleasure getting such good service, which is not always the case with other companies. Thanks for your assistance Bob" Testimonial: Re: Condensation From: K. Young Date: 25.02.10 "Hello, Karen! Thank you very much for the information, which is a great help. I will try the steps advised and to air the rooms in question more thoroughly and daily. I much appreciate your advice and knowledge of the problem. Should we require work to be done in the future, I will most certainly contact you at Wise Property. Thanks again and all the best for 2008 and way beyond. You have been amazing and it is just good to know that there are professionals in your line of work, who can identify and fix property problems with speed and expertise. Kind regards K. Young" Testimonial: survey thank you.. From: C. Smurden Date: 21.01.10 "Dear Sirs, "I am not normally one for following up on any services provided to me but I feel I have to send this email to you to thank you for the superb service I received from your company today (25th April 08). I had a small patch of 'damp' on an external wall which I had another local company come to survey the previous day and was told it would require extensive work to correct the situation with removal of cement render inside along with the application of a waterproof membrane which I found a bit strange because the patch in question was only about 18" square!!! Anyway I never accepted the first quote which I was told would be 'in the hundreds' of pounds to correct so I contacted your company at about 4pm on the Thursday and arranged for your surveyor to attend my property the next day at 10am. This was duly done and your surveyor attended at the stated time. The situation was explained to him and a visual inspection was carried out. During this inspection a conversation took place between us and I was not spoken to like and idiot or someone who knew nothing about the problem. Following a complete visual survey it was relayed to me what the problem was - ingress of rain water through the window frame seals - and how to remedy the situation which would cost me about £10. I must thank you and the surveyor for his honesty and integrity and please do not hesitate to use me as a referee if anyone requires a third party independent reference. I was /am more than impressed with the service I received and would be happy to relay my thoughts to anyone else. Please accept my thanks again to all concerned the receptionist, surveyor and all... If I ever require the services of one of your guys I will not hesitate to use you or recommend you. Thanks once again Yours Sincerely C. Smurden" Testimonial: White Preservation team From: G. Stewart "Dear Gavin, May I thank you for your personal attention and for your colleagues Jimmy and Colin for undertaking the installation of a chemical damp proof course and common furniture beetle treatment to the property at Kingsbarns. Jimmy and Colin were a delight to have undertaking the work. I cannot praise them more highly for their care and attention during the contract. I would also like to thank Laura for her helpful advice and after-sales attention. May I ask you to express my thanks to both Jimmy and Colin as I did not have the opportunity to personally thank them the way I would have wanted when they departed as I was giving instructions to my main contractor in the upstairs of the property when they both shouted up their farewell. I will have no hesitation in recommending you and your company to others. Yours sincerely G.
