Kenwood Damp Proofing Reviews 

Had a great experience with the damp proofing of my downstairs bedrooms. Noel and Amin were awesome, would recommend!

James O' Malley from Kenwood responded very quickly having already arranged a start date for the work at the property.
I am impressed.

Jim was very efficient dealing with the tenants and the landlord. They carried out the survey within 24 hours and provided a survey report for the damp course treatment and prices within 48 hours. Jim has now liaised with all parties to book in the work next week. Jim was very professional and helpful

Exceptional Support During a Difficult Time
After my father passed away last year, I was faced with the daunting task of managing his flat—sorting through belongings, preparing it for rental, and addressing necessary damp proofing. It felt overwhelming until I contacted Kenwood and spoke with Jim O’Malley.
Jim’s expertise, patience, and practical advice have been truly outstanding. He took the time to explain everything clearly, breaking down the work into manageable parts that allowed me to move forward while juggling the complexities of estate management. His understanding of both the technical aspects and the emotional weight of the situation made a real difference.
I’ll likely be reaching out to Jim again as the work progresses, and I have every confidence that his guidance will continue to ensure things are handled efficiently and professionally.
Thank you, Jim—I genuinely appreciate your support.

Speedy service. Tom and Reece were polite and helpful and did a great clear up at the end.

Both James O’Malley and Karen Sturges were very patient and helpful in helping me understand and resolve issues in a building survey and booked a damp survey in really quickly, thank you!

Christopher was very helpful . it is second time I am using Kenwood and both times I had great service .
I would recommend this company as their professionalism and knowledge makes the difference .

Extremely efficient! I emailed, asking for a copy of a certificate of guarantee for work that had taken place a few years previously. I received the certificate within a couple of hours of sending my email. I can't believe how efficient this company is!!!!

Tom and Reece were very friendly,professional, helpful and understanding.They kept things very neat and tidy. After finishing each Room vent they vacuum and made sure everything is at its place.

Tom and Reece were excellent from start too finish , clean and tidy and did a thorough job , would recommend.

The surveyor was at my property for about 15 mins and the report came back within hours with blurry photos which I think indicates the complete lack of thoroughness. The recommendation was (of course) a damp proof course for rising damp.

I have since commissioned a water damage report from an independent company who don't sell any remediation products and they have concluded that the main issues are the result of internal water leaks and they don't believe there is rising damp. They were at the property for 2 hours and used thermal imaging devices.

The survey from Kenwood was completely inaccurate and it was quite obvious they just wanted to sell me a damp proof course for thousands of pounds which it turns out I don't need

very poor - I do not recommend these people - be very careful - this is borderline fraud

Kenwood did an excellent job of damp proofing on our property nearly 14 years ago but when I had a query following a recent surveyor's report they could not have been more helpful. Having contacted them via their website I received a follow-up email and then a call from Chis Allum, Customer Services Manager.
This was excellent customer service that is increasingly rare these days.

Extremely efficient, helpful and kind. would definitely recommend. Chris has been a great help!

Glenn & Dan dream team
This was our second time using Kenwood. We chose them because their work is high standard, comes with guarantees and very professional. We had to damp proof a lot of our ground floor, a job that apparently is normally done when there are no dwellers. Glenn & Dan were knowledgeable, lovely and efficient and worked around a 4 person family containing and clearing all dust. Our one hiccup was on day one when we found out the job would take longer than the office described and that we had to remove radiators. This information was in the original report but buried in 17 pages of info. I'd recommend the office to ensure customers have read your small print and as a customer ask for the dream team Glenn & Dan

Tom and Reece were excellent. Professional and very hard working. For such a messy and dirty process they were very clean and tidy first class and kept the rest if the house free of dust at all times. Thanks Pat Kane

Kenwood has ruined my rental set up. I committed to spening nearly 7k on a damp course, which has left me with recurrent damp patches. The aftercare, and the one particular person (Christopher Allum) whom I have been left to deal with, is rude, stubborn and seems to hate communicating with his customers. There has evolved to be a new intensively damp patch, as they decided to leave a single small 1ft area untreated, right in the middle of the wall. So all the moisture has been now capillaried to that spot. Its a direct result of their poor decision making on my job. They have made me pay twice 180 to revisit and discuss things, so thats £360!!! Just to communicate! Are wont take any responsibility for their work, and keep sending me week late monosyllabic and rude replies offering to quote me for new works. A guy came to review the job yesterday, who seemed nice, and verbally admitted that they should have included that small area in the works, so he would try to help me, but yet again Christopher Allum, who I would never want to deal with again, has shut all of it down and offered to quote me for works. 7K!! PLus horrific after care.. and £360 for even a conversation. And still a damp house, that the council is now on my case about. Never using Kenwood again. feel like its a power game rather than customer service, They have clearly screwed up.

Tom and Reece was very professional and thorough and done an excellent job highly recommend

I sent a request and was called back immediately. After sending images, I got a call from Jim O'Malley who, after look v at our images, gave me some very helpful advice, advising that our problem probably isn't a damp issue and we need another professional. He could easily have come out, charged us a survey fee and then said the same thing but he didn't. Extremely helpful and professional and wouldn't hesitate recommending Kenwood for one second!

Noel and Amin were top blokes super friendly, helpful and respectful. Brilliant service all round, would highly recommend.

Tom and Adam completed a fantastic damp proofing job. Very happy with the service, good communication throughout.
