Shaw Preservations is the leading damp, woodworm and dry rot specialist in the Surrey area. We specialise in the eradication of woodworm, fungal decay and rising damp in buildings, plus cellar waterproofing. Our staff are fully qualified and committed to providing work of the highest possible standard and a friendly, responsive service to our customers.
Damp in properties is a serious problem with the damage ranging from slight, as in decorative staining, to more severe such as structural damage. There are several forms of damp such as penetrating, rising, lateral, condensation and plumbing leaks etc. Shaw Preservations has many years of experience in delivering effective and appropriate timber solutions to hundreds of properties in Epsom and Surrey.
Our timber services include wet rot, dry rot and woodworm infestation. Basement waterproofing is a technique of applying a waterproof lining to areas of a building that are partially or wholly below ground or water levels. This process enables a normally un-inhabitable wasted part of a building to be successfully transformed into a usable functional area.

Damp Experts
Report
Damp in properties is a serious problem with the damage ranging from slight, as in decorative staining to more severe such as structural damage. There are several forms of damp such as penetrating, rising, lateral, condensation and plumbing leaks etc. Each of the above require different treatments in order to solve the problem and it is vitally important that the correct diagnosis is initially made and the recommendations undertaken.
Condensation Experts
Report
Condensation is usually first noticed on the windows, settling on the window sills in the morning. Black mould can develop on the decorations and furnishings touching the wall. Generally, the brickwork and wall plasters are not affected however, if severe and unchecked, it can damage the plaster and timbers in contact with the damp walls.
Wet Rot, Dry Rot and Woodworm
Report
Wood is a durable material which is resistant to most biological degrade providing it is kept dry. When wood becomes wet decay occurs with the type of decay depending on the type of wood, moisture content and atmospheric conditions. As a Company we often find Dry Rot and Wet Rot Fungii misdiagnosed due to inexperience or insufficient training.
Types of Property Surveys
Report
Of course, We can carry out a range of services to suit you from a single wall in one room to a whole house inspection. Has the mortgage company asked for a whole house inspection as a precaution or just one room that has been highlighted as a cause for concern? No matter, we can help. We have surveyors that are specialists in this field and are happy to liaise with your conservation officer to ensure sympathetic repairs are carried out.
