Hospitality and hotel groups

Bathrooms, floor voids and wall linings in hotels can hide mould and dry rot for years, concealed by finishes, and found only when a refurbishment programme opens them up. By then, the discovery is competing with a live programme, rooms out of service, and a fixed handover date.

We help hotel groups find these problems earlier. A pre-refurbishment survey, run ahead of a room or floor refurbishment, uses moisture mapping and targeted openings to establish what’s actually there before the main contractor mobilises; see our pre-refurbishment surveys page. Findings are scoped and priced so they’re part of the programme, not a variation to it.

Where remediation is needed, we work room by room in contained, negative-pressure work areas, so neighbouring rooms can stay in service and the hotel keeps trading. Our hotel refurbishment case study sets out how this looked in practice: targeted openings established the extent of a dry rot outbreak, sound sections were treated and retained rather than stripped out wholesale, and the works were phased around a trading building.

Every instruction closes with clearance testing before a room is handed back, and a photo-documented report for your asset records. See our mould remediation and dry rot services for how we approach each specific defect.
