Services
Rising Damp
Our rising damp treatment involves installing a chemical damp-proof course to halt moisture ascent. We address salt contamination and replaster walls to ensure structural integrity. Customers benefit from long-term protection and increased property value.
Dry Rot
Dry rot eradication includes removing infected timber, applying fungicidal treatments, and replacing wood with pre-treated alternatives. Our method restores structural safety and prevents recurrence, ensuring compliance with building standards.
Plastering
Post-damp treatment, we apply bonded plastering systems to guarantee adhesion and durability. Our City & Guilds-certified team reskims walls and artex ceilings, leaving surfaces smooth and ready for decoration.
Basement Tanking
Basement tanking creates a waterproof barrier using cementitious coatings and membranes. This prevents groundwater ingress, transforming damp cellars into habitable spaces with lasting results.
Wall Tie Replacement
We replace corroded wall ties with stainless steel alternatives to restore cavity wall stability. The process involves drilling, inserting ties, and repointing mortar joints to maintain structural integrity.
