Services
Damp Proofing
Our damp proofing solutions address rising damp, condensation, and penetrating damp through chemical injection, plastering treatments, and ventilation systems. Certified surveyors identify moisture sources and implement lasting remedies. Treatments comply with building regulations and include 20-year guarantees for structural protection.
Timber Preservation
Specialist timber services tackle wet rot, dry rot, and woodworm infestations using preservation treatments and structural repairs. Our certified technicians remove decay, apply protective coatings, and replace damaged timbers while maintaining structural integrity.
Basement Waterproofing
We install Type C waterproofing systems with cavity drains and membranes for basements and cellars. Solutions meet British Standards and include guarantees against water ingress, ensuring habitable spaces remain dry and compliant.
Rising Damp Treatment
Our chemical damp proof course injection stops moisture ascent in walls. The process includes plaster replacement and salt neutralization, backed by guarantees and performed by PCA-accredited specialists.
Woodworm Removal
Professional woodworm treatment involves infestation assessment, insecticide application, and structural repairs. We use EPA-approved treatments to eliminate beetles and prevent recurrence in treated timbers.
