| Damp-proofing is a classic example. All reputable damp-proofing firms will offer a guarantee – usually for 30 years - that they will revisit and repair a damp course should it fail. But how many of them are around in 10 years, let alone 30? A failed damp course is usually only picked up when ahttp://stroibud.comli.com property is sold and a new survey required, so if, in the meantime the installers have gone out of business or moved out of the area, the seller is left to pay the price all over again. To overcome this, many damp-proof companies also offer insurance backing against their guarantee, which will cost around 5% of the work done, and it’s well worth it, though do read the small print. Some schemes guarantee the work for 30 years, but only include the insurance for 20.
