Damp proofing.

Penetrating damp, rising damp and salt-bloom. Cause diagnosed, treated, and re-plastered with a proper salt-retardant system. The full fix, not a quick cover-up.

What We Cover

What's included.

Diagnosis First

We find the cause before we treat, so the damp does not just come back through fresh plaster a year later.

Salt-Retardant Plaster

Proper undercoat system that holds salts back and stops them migrating to the finish coat.

Rising Damp

Chemical DPC injection where appropriate, plus full re-plaster to the affected wall up to a safe height.

Penetrating Damp

External cause traced and treated, internal plaster removed and rebuilt with the right specification.

FAQ

Common questions.

Can damp be fixed permanently?

In most cases yes, once the underlying cause is sorted. Plastering over damp without treatment is what fails.

Do you treat the inside or outside?

Both, depending on cause. Penetrating damp often needs an external fix, rising damp is internal DPC and re-plaster.

How long does the wall need to dry?

Salt-retardant plaster needs proper drying time. Usually a few weeks before final finish, sometimes longer in cold months.

Will the damp patch come back?

Not if the cause has been sorted properly. We explain what we found and what was treated so you know.
