 COMPANY PROFILE

DRY ROT, DAMPNESS, WET ROT, STRUCTURAL DEFECTS,
CONDITIONAL SURVEYS


Robinsons Preservation Ltd have been established 50 years and have, throughout those years, built up the reputation of being one of the leaders in the field of restoration and preservation.

Since 1956, Robinsons have been actively engaged in the restoration of our architectural heritage. These buildings range from terraced houses to historic castles.

Buildings are inspected by fully qualified surveyors to provide independent and unbiased reports. Robinsons has qualified surveyors to provide expert witness report and legal advice.

We offer traditional timber repairs, Dry Rot / Wet Rot treatments, insecticide treatment of timbers affected by Woodworm, DeathWatch Beetle and Weevil. Structural repairs carried out by Robinsons include wall tie installation, restraint straps and upgrading of timbers. Fully qualified technicians carry out all works.

One of Robinson's specialities, is the repair and upgrading of timber beams using Epoxy resin resins. These enable the reconstruction of large timber without recourse to unsightly steelwork.

A recent addition to the services is infra-red thermograph. This system has been developed for detecting water ingress and cold bridges in the structures of ecclesiastical and historic buildings. This measures the temperatures of surfaces
(i.e. walls / ceilings) and can measure the temperature accurately to a tolerance of 0.1 Degrees Centigrade. Early detection of water ingress can help control Dry Rot or even prevent. Full detailed reports with coloured photography are provided after an inspection.

Robinsons are members of the British Wood Preserving and Damp-Proofing Association (BWPDA). For membership Robinsons has to demonstrate standards, quality, safety and technical competence in the remedial treatment industry. The BWPDA regularly vet to ensure our high standards of workmanship and financial stability.

All remedial works carried out by Robinsons is guaranteed and in addition we are able to offer the added benefit of the Guarantee Protection Trust Ltd "Back-up Guarantee". This ensures the continuity of your guarantee should we, for any reason cease to be engaged in this type of work.

The area covered by Robinsons is Nation-wide with recent contracts as far apart as Glasgow, Exeter, Brecon and Norwich.
