Frequently Asked Questions
Common signs include damp patches or tide marks on walls, peeling paint or wallpaper, black mould, a musty smell, and crumbling plaster or skirting boards. Because different types of damp need different treatments, the first step is a professional survey to identify the cause accurately.
The three main culprits are:
- Condensation
- Rising damp
- Penetrating damp
Condensation is the most common, caused by moisture in the air settling on cold surfaces. Rising damp travels up through walls from the ground, while penetrating damp comes through walls, roofs or windows from outside. Each requires a different treatment.
Damp proofing covers the treatments that stop moisture getting into the fabric of a building. The right treatment depends entirely on the cause of the damp, which is why an accurate survey comes first.
- Rising damp treatment
- Damp proofing
- Condensation treatment
- Basement waterproofing
- Basement excavations
- Concrete resin injections
- Dry and wet rot removal
- Woodworm treatment
- Wall tie replacement
All carried out by our own in-house team.
It depends on the cause and the extent of the damage. Some treatments are completed in a day or two; larger jobs involving replastering or structural repair take longer. Once we’ve surveyed the property, we’ll give you a clear timescale before any work starts.
Not if the cause has been correctly identified and treated – which is exactly why we lead with diagnosis. Our work is covered by a 30-year insurance-backed guarantee, so in the unlikely event a treated problem returns, you’re protected.
