Timber and Damp Treatments - Rising Damp

We install new chemical Damp Proof Courses.

Older properties may not have been built with a damp proof course or, as is sometimes the case, the existing damp proof course may have broken down over time, or have become "bridged".

Examples of this may be either:

Increased external ground levels, or

Blocked cavities

Remedial work/treatments:

Depending on the type and severity of the damage caused, we will identify the source(s) of damp ingress and advise on all remedial work required, including:

Replacement or insertion of Damp Proof Course

Treatment of saturated brickwork
