Services
Rising Damp Treatment
Our rising damp treatment addresses moisture intrusion through brickwork and masonry. Using industry-approved damp-proofing methods, we install barriers to prevent water migration. This service includes wall drying, plaster replacement, and chemical injection, ensuring long-term structural protection while maintaining COSHH compliance.
Condensation Control
We resolve condensation issues through tailored ventilation systems and moisture management strategies. Our approach includes identifying cold spots, improving airflow, and applying anti-mould treatments. These measures eliminate black spot mould growth and improve indoor air quality across residential and commercial properties.
Dry Rot Remediation
Specialised dry rot treatment involves identifying fungal outbreaks, removing infected materials, and applying biocidal treatments. We replace compromised timber with preservative-treated alternatives and implement moisture control measures to prevent recurrence in affected structures.
Cavity Wall Tie Replacement
We address structural weaknesses caused by corroded wall ties through discreet replacement with stainless steel alternatives. This service restores masonry stability, prevents bulging walls, and maintains building integrity without requiring extensive demolition.
Waterproofing and Tanking
Our waterproofing systems create impermeable barriers against groundwater ingress. Using cementitious coatings and cavity drain membranes, we protect basements and subterranean spaces while complying with British Standard 8102 requirements for long-term structural defence.
