Services
Rising Damp Treatments
Our rising damp solutions involve chemical damp-proof course injection and plaster replacement. We use moisture meters and salt analysis to diagnose issues, then install chemical barriers to stop capillary action. This prevents structural damage and ensures long-term dryness in older buildings.
Woodworm Treatments
We eradicate woodworm infestations through targeted insecticide treatments and timber replacement. Our CSRt-qualified surveyors identify beetle species, assess damage severity, and apply sterilising treatments to break the infestation cycle while preserving structural integrity.
Dry Rot Repairs
Our dry rot treatments include antifungal applications, affected timber removal, and structural reinforcement. We address moisture sources and install ventilation systems to prevent recurrence, restoring properties to safe, habitable conditions.
Condensation Solutions
We resolve condensation issues through ventilation system installation, thermal plaster boarding, and moisture control. Our surveys identify causes like poor ventilation, followed by tailored solutions to eliminate black mould and improve indoor air quality.
Basement Tanking
Our basement conversions use cavity drainage membranes and epoxy coatings to prevent water ingress. We provide complete refurbishment packages including electrical work, carpentry, and final decorations for habitable underground spaces.
