What makes us different

We look at the building, not just the damp patch.

Moisture issues are often mislabelled because the inspection starts in the wrong place. Westland Diagnostics reviews the roofline, render, masonry, ground levels, abutments, rainwater goods, ventilation, heating patterns, humidity, dew point and internal moisture distribution.

That means the report explains the likely mechanism — not just “high readings” and a generic treatment recommendation.

Core services

Independent diagnostics for buildings, moisture and internal conditions.

For contractors, councils, property managers, landlords, buyers, surveyors and anyone needing a proper answer before spending money.

Building Fabric Assessment

External and internal fabric review covering render, masonry, roof details, abutments, rainwater goods, ground levels and construction defects.

Moisture Ingress Diagnosis

Investigation of penetrating damp, trapped moisture, saturated masonry, defective detailing and hidden moisture pathways.

Condensation & Mould

Assessment of surface condensation risk, mould patterns, heating, ventilation, dew point and internal environmental conditions.

Formal Reporting

Written reports suitable for contractor review, council property issues, landlord disputes, defect analysis and pre-purchase decisions.

Environmental monitoring

Real temperature and humidity data, not guesswork.

Environmental monitoring records how a building behaves over time. This is especially useful where condensation, mould, tenant use, heating patterns or ventilation are being disputed.

  • Temperature and relative humidity logging
  • Dew point and condensation risk review
  • Short-term or longer-term monitoring packages
  • Useful for HMOs, rentals, holiday lets and council property issues
  • Data-led conclusions in a written report
