Services
Damp Proofing
Our damp proofing specialists identify and eliminate rising damp, penetrating damp, and hygroscopic salt contamination. We install physical and chemical damp proof courses while addressing structural defects causing moisture ingress. Treatments include wall replastering with waterproof renders and remedial work for affected masonry.
Plastering
City & Guilds-certified plasterers handle internal and external repairs, including skimming, artex removal, and waterproof rendering. We specialise in damp-affected wall restoration using salt-retardant plasters and provide decorative finishes like coving and tyrolean.
Dry Rot Treatment
We eradicate dry rot through controlled fungicide application and replace compromised timber structures. Our process includes moisture control measures to prevent recurrence and meets PCA certification standards for structural integrity.
Condensation Control
Our specialists address surface condensation through improved ventilation systems and thermal insulation. We tackle mould growth on walls and timbers while resolving underlying humidity imbalances in residential properties.
Wet Rot Repair
We repair wet rot damage caused by persistent damp masonry contact. Our process involves removing affected timbers, applying protective treatments, and implementing drainage solutions to prevent future moisture accumulation in structural elements.
