About Us
All our staff are extremely well trained and offer an efficient, friendly and above all professional service at all times. You will find that our staff are ready and willing to share their valuable experience and advice with our customers. Established since 1979 all our work is provided with a 30 year insured guarantee.
We are not tied to any of the Chemical manufactures and do not subscribe to their guarantee schemes. This is a very important point when considering a contractor. Many chemical companies insist their dealers use their chemicals solely and have to buy unnecessary chemicals to undertake unnecessary treatments. We simply buy our chemicals monthly from the best market deal offered at that time, thus can pass on considerable saving to our customers.

Experience
Working for surveyors, architects, property owners and managers, local authorities and contractors, the company has wide ranging experience in the repair of housing both privately owned and public sector, commercial and public buildings, as well as churches, including many listed properties. Much of our work on owner occupied housing is the result of recommendation by surveyors and mortgage lenders.
Guaranteed Service
Generally our treatments carry a long term Guarantee that is assignable in the event of a change of ownership. Over the years we have issued well over 10,000 and Lifecote Ltd is one of the few companies whose trading history exceeds the terms of its guarantees.Westminster Guarantee Trustees Ltd underwrite the Lifecote guarantee and this is sound reassurance that if Lifecote Ltd ceases trading a well founded and established guarantee trust will up hold our guarantee. Westminster Guarantee Protection Ltd (the trustee) are both Dti and Financial Service Authority approved. In addition our work has been checked and approved by the NHBC on a recent five million pound property development project in North West London. We undertook the entire damp and timber remedial works on this commercial development. We are also a contractor for local councils. Lifecote History
The company was founded in 1979 as essentially an external weather protection service before expanding into the specialist remedial treatment process of damp proofing and timber preservation. In the 1990s Lifecote diversified into woodworm and dry rot control and then remedial wall ties. Lifecote reached market leadership in 1996 in the Essex and London regions. Lifecote has now expanded across the country with offices in most locations with highly trained specialist surveyors awaiting your instructions.
Over the years the company has worked on numerous national building companies and regional historic buildings throughout the UK. The group of companies prides its self with providing an exceptional service at minimal cost to the homeowner.
