Services
Damp Proofing
Our damp proofing service addresses rising damp through chemical damp proof courses, salt inhibition, and specialist rendering. We remove affected plaster, inject damp-proofing solutions, and apply breathable finishes to ensure long-term dryness. All work includes a 30-year guarantee, protecting property owners against recurrence.
Basement Conversions
Basement conversions involve tanking systems with waterproof membranes and cavity drainage to create habitable spaces. We install sump pumps, insulation, and ventilation while ensuring compliance with building regulations. A 50-year guarantee covers our basement waterproofing systems for complete client confidence.
Wet Dry Rot
We identify and remove wet/dry rot by addressing moisture sources, replacing damaged timber, and applying fungicidal treatments. Our 20-year guarantee covers rot removal, ensuring structural integrity is restored and protected against future decay through specialist remediation processes.
Black Spot Mould Removal
Our mould removal service includes humidity testing, anti-microbial treatments, and ventilation solutions like SRHRUs. We eliminate existing mould, treat surfaces with fungicidal paints, and install heat recovery units to prevent recurrence, addressing both health risks and property damage.
Flood Damage
Flood damage remediation involves water extraction, dehumidification, and anti-microbial treatments to prevent mould and rot. We replace damaged materials, sanitise affected areas, and restore properties to habitable conditions, minimising long-term structural and health risks.
