Services
Damp Proofing
Our damp-proofing service identifies and eliminates rising, penetrating, and condensation damp through industry-approved methods. We install silicone damp-proof courses, apply salt-resistant renders, and implement ventilation systems to prevent recurrence. Every treatment comes with a 10-year warranty, ensuring long-term structural protection for residential and commercial properties.
Timber Preservation
We treat timber structures against fungal decay, insect infestation, and moisture damage using specialist chemical preservatives. Our team repairs compromised beams and joists while maintaining original aesthetics. Services include Bower Beam installations and dwarf wall construction to reinforce weakened structural elements in both historic and modern buildings.
Property Maintenance
Our maintenance services cover lime rendering, mortar repointing, and roof void insulation to enhance property longevity. We address ventilation issues through extractor fan installations and perform minor renovations including kitchen refits and electrical upgrades. All work aligns with traditional building practices while meeting modern efficiency standards.
Condensation Treatment
We resolve condensation issues through humidity control units and improved ventilation strategies. Our solutions prevent mould growth by maintaining optimal relative humidity levels, particularly in kitchens and bathrooms. Automated extractor systems ensure continuous moisture management for healthier indoor environments in both residential and commercial spaces.
Lime Rendering
Our lime rendering service restores porous walls using breathable materials that absorb and evaporate moisture naturally. This traditional technique prevents water penetration while maintaining structural integrity. Ideal for historic buildings, our renders enhance weather resistance without compromising aesthetic character or original architectural features.
