About Us
Over 40 Years of Damp-Proofing Expertise – With Your Health at Heart
At AAA Damp Control, we’re a small, family-run business with a big commitment to making homes across the North West healthier, drier, and more comfortable. Based in Wigan, we proudly serve areas including Manchester, Liverpool, Preston, Bolton, Blackpool, Chorley, and everywhere in between — offering straightforward advice and real solutions to damp, mould, timber, and ventilation problems.
Led by Alan Buckley, a time-served expert with over 40 years’ experience in the building trade, our focus has always been on treating the cause, not just the symptoms. From rising damp and dry rot to stubborn condensation and black mould, we’ve helped hundreds of homeowners across the region get their properties back to a safe and healthy standard.
But it’s not just about walls and woodwork — it’s about the people who live there. Damp and poor ventilation can aggravate conditions like asthma, allergies, and respiratory issues. That’s why we specialise in Positive Input Ventilation (PIV) systems, improving airflow and reducing allergens in your home.
We’re not a faceless firm or a high-pressure sales outfit. We’re friendly, straight-talking, and proud of the work we do. As verified Checkatrade members with many glowing reviews, you can trust us to treat your home as if it were our own — with honesty, care, and a cuppa if the kettle’s on.

Real Feedback from Real Homeowners
Alan fitted a PIV unit some weeks ago but this stopped working yesterday along with the bathroom mirror. I contacted Alan and there was no hesitation in coming round to see what the issue was. In the end it was a loose electrical box done by an earlier contractor that was the problem and all is now fine. Would highly recommend
Alan arrived on the same day as my initial enquiry for help/advice with a damp problem. On inspection he discussed what the problem was, (condensation and not damp) how it could be rectified (with a PIV unit fitted in the loft) and what other additional measures could be put in place to ease the problem. He was very knowledgable on his 'subject'.
