Damp Proofing treatment

Need Advice?

When considering any form damp treatment it is vital to correctly diagnose the actual damp problem and the source of the dampness first. Is it rising damp, condensation, penetrating damp or simple a floor/wall junction bridging? It might even be the case that you do not even need any form of damp treatment.

What you need to be aware of is that not all damp problems are the same and different damp issues require different treatments to rectify the issue. Get the diagnosis wrong and the damp treatment will likely be wrong too resulting with the damp issue continuing and any cost incurred during the failed treatment totally wasted.

What we would strongly suggest is that if you are unsure as to the cause of the damp problem and even more unsure regarding the type of damp you have, do not fire ahead with any quick fixes such has painting over the problem. It might cover up the damp issue over the short term, however, it will most likely come back with a vengence in the long term.
