FAQ's
Damp Proofing FAQs
How do I know if I have rising damp?
Common signs include tide marks on walls (usually up to about 1 metre high), peeling wallpaper, white salt deposits (efflorescence), and a persistent musty smell. Our professional damp survey uses calibrated moisture meters and thermal imaging to give you a definitive diagnosis, not guesswork.
How long does damp proofing treatment take?
Most rising damp treatments can be completed in 1 to 3 days depending on the size of the property and extent of the damage. Penetrating damp repairs vary based on the external work needed. We provide a clear, realistic timeline during your initial survey so there are no surprises.
Do you offer guarantees on your work?
Absolutely. All our damp proofing work is fully guaranteed and compliant with building regulations. We provide company backed guarantees on every project. We stand behind our work because we're confident in the quality of our treatments and materials.
Will I need to move out during treatment?
In most cases, no. We work room by room and keep disruption to an absolute minimum. We protect your floors and furniture, and clean up thoroughly at the end of each day. We'll discuss any specific requirements during your survey.
How much does damp proofing cost?
Every property is different, which is why we offer free surveys. We'll assess the specific issues in your home and provide a clear, no obligation quote. We believe in honest pricing. No hidden costs, no inflated estimates to cover subcontractor margins.
