If you have woodworm holes, soft timber or signs of rot in Rushden, we carry out a free timber survey and explain whether treatment or repair is actually needed.
Rushden is shaped by rows of older boot-and-shoe-era homes as well as newer housing, with plenty of original timber and solid walls. Many homes still include original joists, roof timbers and floorboards, so it is important to confirm whether damage is historic or active before treating it.
Our CSRT-qualified, PCA registered team surveys timber in Rushden and nearby areas including Higham Ferrers, Irthlingborough, Raunds and nearby villages. We check moisture, woodworm activity and signs of wet or dry rot, then explain the practical repair or treatment options.

Trevor has just recently completed a damp and woodworm survey on my home (as part of a home buy/selling process). Trevor came around within a few days following my request for an assessment and was highly knowledgeable and professional. He then produced a report which was informative and helpful. Would recommend.
I was very impressed with this company. They carried out damp proofing and replastering, and although I knew it might be messy work, the house was kept clean throughout and the team were polite and friendly. I would not hesitate to recommend.
I brought a new house and discovered I had wood worm and needed damp proofing to be done. I called 3 companies and was quoted £1500, then called Meadow Wood Preservation and Trevor came around and quoted a really competitive price that I decided to go with him. He came to following week and did the work one afternoon. They did a fantastic job, and I’ve already recommended him to a friend who has a damp problem on her house.
We will assess the problem and recommend the right solution for your home.
