Services
Damp Proofing
Our damp proofing solutions address rising damp, penetrating damp, and condensation issues. Using advanced techniques and materials, we install damp-proof courses and tanking systems to protect properties from moisture damage. All work includes a 10-year insurance-backed guarantee, ensuring long-term structural integrity and improved indoor air quality for residential and commercial clients.
Basement Conversions
Transform underutilised basement spaces into functional living areas with our conversion services. We handle structural modifications, waterproofing, and finishing touches to create durable, habitable rooms. Projects include home offices, guest suites, and entertainment spaces, completed with minimal disruption to existing property structures.
Lintel Installation
We provide lintel inspection, replacement, and reinforcement services to maintain wall integrity above door and window openings. Using steel, concrete, or timber solutions, our installations distribute structural loads effectively, preventing cracks and ensuring compliance with building regulations for both new constructions and renovations.
Cavity Wall Ties
Our cavity wall tie services restore structural stability by replacing corroded or missing ties. We use durable stainless steel fixings to reconnect separated wall layers, preventing bowing and moisture ingress. The process includes wall cavity inspections and integrated damp-proofing measures to extend building lifespan.
Tanking Systems
Specialist tanking solutions create waterproof barriers for basements and subterranean structures. The process involves surface preparation, membrane application, and finishing plasterwork to create dry, usable spaces. Ideal for properties in damp-prone areas, our systems meet British Standard 8102 requirements for below-ground waterproofing.
