Rising Damp
20 Year Guarantee
Most UK properties are equipped with a damp proofing course designed to prevent rising damp from damaging the interior. However, issues can arise if this course is improperly installed, damaged, or “bridged” by high external ground levels. When this occurs, rising damp can harm your property’s decoration, plaster, and timber.
Solution:
Rising damp can be effectively treated by injecting the affected wall with our advanced silicone based damp proofing course. The damaged plaster may need to be stripped and replaced using renovating plaster or our specialised cavity wall membrane system.

Penetrating Damp
20 Year Guarantee
Excessive dampness on walls, unusual watermarks, mould growth, and damage to decorations are common signs of penetrating damp. This can result from defective or porous masonry or render, poor window pointing, and damage to the roof or rainwater goods. If untreated, penetrating damp can cause severe internal deterioration, rot infestation, and structural weakening.
Solution:
Our surveyor will assess your property, identify the source of the damp, and evaluate the necessary repairs. Once diagnosed, our damp proofing specialists will remove the affected materials and apply a physical waterproofing membrane to expedite drying. External defects will be repaired, and we may coat the external wall with a water repellent to keep water out and protect your home.

Condensation and Mould
While insulation, draught proofing, and double glazing are beneficial, they can sometimes create conditions for moisture-laden air to condense on cold surfaces within your property. This condensation can lead to unsightly mould growth, damaged decorations, and furnishings.
Solution:
Our surveyor will visit your property to diagnose the cause of the condensation and recommend the most effective solution. Options may include installing efficient extraction fans, positive input ventilation systems, or repairing cold spots within your home.

Basement / Cellar Waterproofing
Damp from the surrounding ground can often lead to flooding in your basement or cellar, damaging internal walls and personal belongings. Converting and waterproofing your basement or cellar not only solves this problem but also significantly increases your property’s value.
Solution:
Our advanced basement waterproofing systems utilise cavity wall and floor membranes to manage water penetration. This system directs water to a drain or a sump and pump extraction unit, ensuring a dry and secure basement.

What To Expect From Our Free Damp Survey?
Our damp surveyors are highly trained and use an array of digital instruments to help them come to the correct conclusion. They will then explain the problem to you, talk about any dangers that your problem could cause you, and fully explain a solution. We offer valuable insights into the causes, consequences, and remedies related to damp and mould. We do this by offering a free damp survey to all UK property owners. If you’re in need of a damp proofing specialist, our team is ready to assist.
Some of the solutions that we use will even save you money in energy bills, so much so that HMRC has reduced the VAT rate.
