Coverage
Areas We Cover
We treat woodworm across England, Scotland and Wales. Local surveyors, a free inspection and a 30-year guarantee — wherever your timber is.
Nationwide cover
One national team, a surveyor near you
Woodworm does not respect postcodes. The common furniture beetle (Anobium punctatum) — behind roughly three quarters of UK infestations — is found in period terraces, suspended timber floors and neglected roof spaces the length of the country. So are we.
We work across all three home nations of mainland Britain — England, Scotland and Wales — through dedicated teams based in eight cities. Each team covers its city and the surrounding towns and villages, so the surveyor who inspects your timber knows the local housing stock: the sandstone tenements of Glasgow, the Georgian terraces of Bristol, the coastal Victorian villas of the South West.
Every job starts the same way, wherever you are. A qualified surveyor visits, identifies the species, confirms whether the infestation is active or historic, and gives you a fixed written quote — with no pressure and no obligation. Treatment is then carried out with the right method for your property, from water-based permethrin spray to deep-penetrating boron paste, and backed by a written certificate and a 30-year guarantee.

How it works locally
National standards, local knowledge
Every team follows the same surveying and treatment standards, so the service you receive in Plymouth matches the service in London. What changes is the local detail — and that detail matters.
Local property types
A surveyor who works your area knows its housing: Victorian suspended timber floors, interwar softwood roof joists, sandstone tenement joist ends bedded into damp masonry. That context speeds up an accurate diagnosis.
Correct species identification
In historic cities like Exeter, old oak can harbour death watch beetle (3mm holes); elsewhere it is almost always furniture beetle (1–2mm holes). Getting the species right decides the right treatment — and whether you need to worry at all.
Same guarantee, everywhere
Wherever your timber is, the work is covered by a written treatment certificate and a 30-year guarantee — accepted by mortgage surveyors and useful when you come to sell.
If you are not sure which beetle you are dealing with, our free woodworm survey settles it. And if you want to understand the work before you book, our woodworm treatment page explains each method — water-based spray, boron paste, fogging and structural timber repair — in plain English.
Can't see your town? We almost certainly still cover it
The towns listed above are a guide, not a limit. Our surveyors travel well beyond their home city, and between our eight teams we reach the great majority of England, Scotland and Wales. If your town isn't named, it does not mean we can't help — it almost always means we simply haven't listed it yet.
The quickest way to find out is to call. Tell us your postcode and the rough scale of the problem — a single garage, a roof space or a whole house — and we'll confirm cover and arrange a free survey at a time that suits you. You can also book a survey online.
