Services
Damp Proofing
Specialist damp proofing services identify and resolve condensation, rising damp, and penetrating damp issues. Treatments follow British Standards, including chemical damp proof courses and breathable membranes. Guarantees of 20-30 years ensure long-term protection against moisture damage in residential and commercial properties.
Condensation Treatment
Targeted condensation treatments address mould growth and humidity problems through eco-friendly ventilation systems and lifestyle adjustments. Free surveys identify causes, with solutions ranging from extractor fans to advanced air filtration systems that improve indoor air quality sustainably.
Rising Damp Solutions
Rising damp treatments involve installing chemical damp proof courses in accordance with BS-6576-1985 standards. Internal plaster replacement and anti-sulphate treatments prevent salt contamination, restoring structural integrity while maintaining heritage compliance for older properties.
Penetrating Damp Repairs
Penetrating damp repairs address water ingress through walls using tanking systems and SecoTherm coatings. External brickwork treatments and structural repairs prevent moisture penetration, with guarantees ensuring long-term effectiveness for properties in wetter climates.
Timber Treatments
Comprehensive timber treatments combat dry rot, wet rot, and woodworm infestations. Infected materials are removed before chemical preservation, ensuring structural stability. Treatments protect against future decay, maintaining timber integrity in damp-affected properties.
Questions
What causes rising damp in Nottingham properties?
Rising damp occurs when ground moisture travels upward through walls via capillary action, often due to failed damp proof courses. Older properties without modern damp membranes are particularly vulnerable.
How do you diagnose condensation issues?
Our surveyors identify condensation through moisture readings, mould patterns, and property inspections. Free surveys assess ventilation, insulation, and lifestyle factors contributing to humidity problems.
Are your damp treatments guaranteed?
Yes. We provide 20-30 year insurance-backed guarantees on damp proof courses and structural repairs, ensuring long-term resolution of moisture problems.
Can penetrating damp cause structural damage?
Untreated penetrating damp weakens masonry, causes plaster decay, and damages timber structures. Our treatments prevent water ingress through external coatings and structural repairs.
Do you offer emergency damp services?
We prioritise urgent cases but don't provide 24/7 emergency services. Contact us for prompt free surveys to address worsening damp issues.
How much do damp surveys cost?
All surveys and quotations are free of charge. We provide written quotes within 48 hours following your no-obligation property inspection.
