Services
Damp Proofing
We specialise in resolving rising damp, condensation, and penetrating damp through advanced techniques. Our solutions include chemical DPC injections and tanking for basements, ensuring long-term protection. With up to 30-year guarantees, we use premium materials and certified surveyors to deliver tailored results for residential and commercial properties.
New DPC
Our new DPC installations use Perma Guard chemical creams to create a durable moisture barrier. This method prevents rising damp by forming a continuous layer within walls. Backed by 30-year guarantees, the process ensures structural integrity and compliance with building regulations for both new builds and renovations.
Tanking
Tanking involves applying a cement-based slurry to walls and basements for waterproofing. We apply a minimum of three coats to ensure full coverage, ideal for properties with high external ground levels. This method provides a permanent solution to water ingress, backed by our 30-year guarantee.
Timber Treatments
We address dry rot and fungal decay in timber structures by removing affected sections and treating remaining areas. Our treatments prevent further degradation, ensuring structural safety. This service is critical for maintaining the longevity of wooden joists and beams in damp-prone environments.
Plastering & Rendering
Our expertise covers internal and external plastering, including hardwall, skim, and silicone-based renders. We use high-quality materials like K-Rend and Monocouche for durable, weather-resistant finishes. This service ensures seamless surfaces for both aesthetic appeal and moisture protection.
