5 Under Street Cellars converted by Kingston Preservation at our West End of Edinburgh Spiritakst Centre. Big Thanks to the Kingston Team for doing a great Job. Not an easy Job to do, and they handled the project with speed and performance at a really good Price. You won't go wrong with this family Business.
Great job done by Kingston Preservation…
Great job done by Kingston Preservation to sort the Damp in our Flat in Musselburgh. We marketed the flat, but there was a smell of Damp in the property. Kingston did a survey and gave us a really comprehensive report and a good Price. We went with Kingston, and great job done. We will definitely use this company again.

We got 5 quotes to remedy the Dry Rot we found in our Property, ranging from £55k to £5k. That was the quote from Kingston Preservation, who I have to say did a great job. Big Thank you to Cameron, Daniel, and Stuart at Kingston Preservation --a no-brainer for us.

I actually got another company in to look at my floor which appeared to have rot in the floor they quoted my 5k to fix it. I though it would be Wise to get a second quote Stuart from Kingston Preservation came to my house and pointed out to me that I had a concrete floor with plywood over fitted. I was Wise and I went back to the company who charged me 150 pounds for the report. Wisely they returned my money and said the so called surveyor was gong on holiday and was very busy and a mistake was made. Kingston did the job for 300 pounds this industry is full of big companies ripping folks off do your self a favor and get a quote from Kingston Preservation that's the Wise choice I'd give you.

Please pass on my praise and thanks to your members of staff who recently undertook extensive damp proofing and re-plastering to the basement of my property in Murrayfield. You also waterproofed and dry-lined my two under stair areas, turning them into dry spaces. All works were carried out to an excellent standard, the job ran smoothly, and I was kept up to date with the progress at all times.
Thank you to Stuart and his two boys
Thank you to Stuart and his two boys, Cameron and Daniel, for sorting the damp in my property. It was not easy as I have white carpets, and they managed to fix the damp in my bedroom, hall, and hall cupboard without shoes on. I have them now fitting a new kitchen for me. Nice people who I totally trust with my property and recommend highly.

The Kingston Team kept me up to date on what they were doing as the job progressed. Cameron and Daniel were very helpful and they hoovered up when the job was finished fitting the damp membranes. The plasterer John was also very neat and tidy with a quality plaster finish and we are now damp-free, which is a relief. Nice work and a nice job. I will be using this company again.
Stuart owes me thousands
It’s so interesting to see all these recent positive reviews. This isn’t representative of Stuart and the experience I’ve had of Kingston Property.
Stuart owes me thousands of pounds because both cellars he converted for me are damp and unusable and for the past 3 yrs he’s ignored requests to repair them He took my money and didn’t deliver on his contract and couldn’t care less. He’s unreliable and untrustworthy if things go wrong. Avoid!
I needed to convert our under street…
I needed to convert our under street cellar in Gayfield Square into dry storage space as we really need extra space. We got Kingston to undertake the project as there quite was good and they showed us several cellars they we are currently working on before we want ahead with the job. The job was done in one week to a very high standard of workmanship and at a fair price a job well done.

We were recommended Stuart's Company Kingston by a family friend. We needed 2 cellars waterproofed and extensive Damp proofing to our house in Murrayfield in Edinburgh. Stuart came out and done an extensive survey and provided a report and quotation to rectify the issues. The job was done quickly and efficiently would highly recommend.
