Valley Compliance Testing is an independent property inspection business run by Dean, serving homeowners, letting agents and landlords across South Wales.
VCT was built on one non-negotiable principle: we don't sell remediation. No damp proofing, no render, no membranes, no building work. That independence is the whole point — when there's nothing to sell, a report can be completely honest. You get an accurate diagnosis, not a sales pitch dressed up as a survey.
South Wales is built of pre-1919 solid-wall stone terraces — exactly the buildings where standard, modern damp advice does the most harm. VCT specialises in diagnosing these traditional buildings correctly, referenced to BS 7913, using a breathability-led approach that respects how the fabric actually works.
Further qualifications in Energy Efficiency Measures for Older & Traditional Buildings and PAS 2035 Retrofit Assessment complete in summer 2026.
Wales has its own, stricter landlord legislation. Every VCT report is referenced specifically against the Renting Homes (Wales) Act 2016, the Fitness for Human Habitation standards, HHSRS and Rent Smart Wales requirements — written to be forwarded directly to landlords, tenants, solicitors or councils.
You deal with Dean directly on every job — consistent standards, full continuity.
