The survey

A survey first. Then a report.

It depends on whether the damp is rising or penetrating. Once the issue has been identified, we outline a specific solution to eradicate it and email you a report with all actions required.

  1. 01

    Identify the type

    Rising damp, penetrating damp or condensation. We treat all three, and each needs a different answer.

  2. 02

    Outline the solution

    A specific solution for the property in front of us — not a standard package.

  3. 03

    Email the report

    A report with all actions required, in writing, so you can see what the work involves before it starts.

  4. 04

    Treat and plaster

    Our skilled workforce completes the treatment and plasters the walls, leaving the surfaces ready for you to decorate.

  5. 05

    Guarantee

    All qualifying preservation works are backed by a 30-year guarantee.

A full-house survey can take around two hours. Identifying the cause of a smaller issue is a lot quicker.

03

Rising damp

Ground water climbing the brickwork.

Rising damp is caused by ground water travelling up through the brickwork. Our primary method is typically installing a new chemical damp-proof course (DPC): injecting specialist solutions into the masonry to create a permanent, watertight barrier that stops moisture migration.

Once the DPC is in, the affected plaster is renewed and the room is left ready to decorate.
