Customer (Lancing)
My partner and I recently noticed some damp areas in our lounge. Prokil Brighton were recommended to us by a work colleague. We contacted them the next day and after a quick discussion on the phone, they came out to look at the area affected. Simon was very knowledgeable on the matter and explained what they could do to rectify this. After agreeing what needed doing, they arrived promptly and worked swiftly to correct the issue. They completed the work in the set time and left our house very tidy.

Customer (Hove)
Could not be happier with the service offered from Prokil Brighton, from start to finish the operation was very smooth. Simon the surveyor took extra care in ensuring that the whole property was inspected for damp and talked me through every step, the office team were very helpful in booking in the works and Trevor and Jake took pride in their work. Me and my partner are ecstatic with the results. I couldn't recommend Prokil Brighton highly enough.

Customer (Brighton)
Arrived when they said they would. They were very friendly, explained what they were going to do and when I returned after work on day one, they had left everything tidy. They completed the job the next day and left no real trace of being there except the beautifully finished wall. So nice to see people who take a pride in their work. I would use them again.

Customer (Wokingham)
Prokil were suggested by friends and after their first visit and detailed report, I felt confident to approve them to work on our grade 2 listed building. When work started, their site team were very professional and friendly, both of their guys explained what they were doing and why. Once exception- holes were made. They explained in detail the best solution and finish for our walls, in this case, a waterproof membrane with a plasterboard/plaster finish. I will be contacting Prokil again when we start on the kitchen and cellar, we hope we get the same team, I would recommend this company.
