🌧️ Damp Is Common in Older & Coastal Homes—But It’s Preventable
Homes in North Wales, especially those near the coast or built with solid walls, often experience damp due to high exposure to rain, poor ventilation, and moisture retention in walls.
Whether you live in a stone-built cottage or a coastal terrace, our combined tanking and plastering systems help protect your home from persistent damp—without compromising on breathability or finish.
🧱 What is Tanking – and When Is It Needed?
Tanking is a method of applying a waterproof barrier to internal walls to prevent moisture from penetrating the surface. It’s ideal for:
✅ Ground floor rooms with moisture ingress
✅ Properties with no DPC or failed render
✅ Older homes exposed to driving rain or high external ground levels
We use high-performance tanking materials from PAM Ties, ensuring a strong and lasting moisture barrier.
🎨 Why Breathable Plastering Matters After Tanking
Once tanking is complete, using the right plaster is key. Breathable, salt-resistant finishes allow the wall to manage internal moisture while preventing salts and condensation from causing damage.
✔️ Salt-resistant backing coats
✔️ Breathable finishing plasters for heritage walls
✔️ Smooth, durable surfaces ready for painting
These are essential for properties with historic value or traditional construction—and we follow best practices outlined by several North Wales councils for maintaining wall health and longevity.
