Commercial Property Preservation Experts

Peter Cox are the UK market leader in commercial property preservation and restoration services with a network of branches across the country.

We are fully trained in dealing with woodworm, wet rot, dry rot, damp proofing, basement waterproofing and structural repairs on commercial projects.

We have a proven track record working with commercial clients to deliver fast, effective preservation solutions while ensuring full compliance with industry regulations and health and safety standards.

Whether it’s a one off commercial project, or a tender for on-going social housing maintenance, Peter Cox offers the expertise and responsiveness to support your project.

Commercial Damp Proofing

Effective damp proofing comes from correct diagnosis and a thorough understanding of the problem at hand. There are many different causes of damp within properties including rising damp, lateral and rain penetrating damp, or through condensation problems.

This is why a thorough damp and timber survey is essential as preservation issues can be more complex than meets the eye.

Across the country our team of trained surveyors are carrying out commercial damp surveys on various projects, meaning no matter the type of property, we can provide you with professional expertise and advice.

Our experienced technicians can be relied on to get the job done first time, completing projects on time and to an exceedingly high standard. Many of our treatments are backed by long term guarantees, up to 20 years for some services.

Commercial Timber Treatments
