Kevin Evans brings a wealth of knowledge and hands-on experience to the Damp Detectives team. With a long-standing background in property restoration, Kevin has worked extensively in the insurance sector, managing the assessment, restoration and repair of buildings affected by moisture damage and structural issues.
His previous role required a deep understanding of building pathology and water ingress, along with the practical know-how to manage repair works from diagnosis all the way through to completion. This solid foundation has shaped Kevin into a skilled damp surveyor across residential and commercial properties. Kevin is capable of identifying underlying causes of damp, mould, and condensation and offering cost-effective, tailored solutions.

At Damp Detectives, we understand the challenges homeowners and property managers face when dealing with damp, especially during times of rising costs. While free surveys may seem appealing, they are often carried out by companies who also offer remedial work—potentially leading to biased advice and costly treatments that don’t address the root cause.
Kevin provides independent, specialist damp surveys focused on identifying the source of the issue without upselling unnecessary building work. With no hidden agenda, you’ll receive honest advice and clear, actionable recommendations—saving you both time and money in the long run.
From the moment you get in touch, Kevin will guide you through a straightforward process designed to give you peace of mind:
Initial Consultation – Once you complete the contact form, Kevin will reach out to learn more about your property and concerns. He may ask for images or other information to help assess the issue before arranging a visit.
Site Visit – If you’re happy to proceed, a convenient appointment will be booked. Kevin will carry out a full inspection using specialist tools and techniques to uncover the source of any moisture, mould, or condensation.
Survey Duration – A standard survey typically takes around three hours, though this can vary depending on the size and condition of the property.
Report (if requested) – If you’ve opted for a written report, Kevin will compile a detailed document outlining the findings, causes, and recommended actions. Reports are usually delivered within 5–7 working days of receiving payment, due upon completion of the survey.
Every customer benefits from:
Unbiased Assessment – A professional opinion based solely on evidence, not tied to any building service.
Quick Turnaround – You’ll be advised promptly of survey availability and timescales.
Professional Reporting – Where required, you’ll receive a thorough PDF report covering the full scope of the inspection.
Fair Pricing – No guesswork or hidden fees—just clear, honest quoting tailored to your specific issue.
As every property and situation is different, a fixed price cannot be offered upfront. Kevin will provide an estimate based on the initial consultation and any information you’re able to provide, such as photographs or descriptions of the issue. In many cases, our surveys offer better value than a standard homebuyer’s survey and can prevent unnecessary expenditure on remedial work.
