We offer a range of damp remedial works to suit your needs.
Damp proofing is a method used to prevent moisture from entering the walls and floors of your property. It is essential for protecting your home or building from structural damage, mold growth, and other issues caused by dampness.
There are various types of damp that can affect your property, including rising damp, penetrating damp, and condensation. Damp proofing involves the use of barriers, coatings, or treatments to stop moisture from causing damage. Our team specializes in identifying the source of damp and providing tailored solutions to keep your property safe and dry.
Rising damp occurs when moisture from the ground travels up through the walls of your property. It can cause peeling paint, damaged plaster, and mold growth.
Penetrating damp is caused by water entering your property through walls, roofs, or windows. It often results from structural issues or poor maintenance.
Condensation occurs when warm, moist air comes into contact with cold surfaces. It can lead to damp patches, mold, and poor air quality.
Protecting your property from damp requires a combination of preventative measures and effective fixes. Here are some of the steps you can take:
A damp-proof course is a barrier installed in walls to prevent rising damp. It is one of the most effective ways to protect your property.
Proper ventilation helps reduce condensation and prevents moisture buildup in your property.
Fixing leaks in roofs, walls, and windows is essential to prevent penetrating damp from damaging your property.
