Damp Proofing London | Trusted Solutions for Damp Issues

To the untrained eye, and without the proper tools, everything could seem fantastic on the surface. However, it isn't unheard of for people to buy a property they think is perfect until a few months down the line when signs of dampness start to show. Often, this is because the previous owner has paid for quick-fix and cheap repairs. If this has happened to a property, it stands to reason that the dampness issue was never resolved, and it has been getting worse, damaging the structural integrity and the woodwork within the walls. Unfortunately, when dampness isn’t properly addressed, it will keep resurfacing, and in the most severe cases, it could cost thousands in repairs.

When you book with us, we will send a professional damp surveyor kitted out with all the best tools to identify dampness in your walls. They will carefully examine the interior and exterior of the home while checking for potential concerns, such as gaps in window frames or damaged brickwork. They will also use specialised equipment to look inside your walls to see anything that isn't visible from the outside. The external inspection will cover every external area of the property, including the roof, gutters, pointing, and downpipes. The interior inspection will check for signs on every wall, floor, and ceiling within the property.

This process will help them identify any condensation, penetrating damp, rising damp, and other areas of concern. They will give you a full report of the humidity and moisture levels in your home, any dampness they have discovered, and advice on structural issues, landscaping, drainage, and ventilation that will help ensure your home remains damp-free forever. This detailed report can be used to help determine the home’s value and strike a much fairer deal. Our team are professional and transparent and strives to ensure you make an informed decision.
