Services
Damp Control
Our damp control specialists identify and resolve rising damp, penetrating damp, and condensation issues through comprehensive surveys and targeted treatments. We implement damp-proof courses, ventilation solutions, and structural repairs to prevent property damage. Our approach combines technical expertise with long-lasting materials to protect building integrity and occupant health.
Structural Waterproofing
Specialist structural waterproofing services create dry, usable spaces in basements and underground structures. We apply membrane systems and cavity drainage solutions to prevent water ingress while maintaining structural integrity. Our methods comply with British standards for below-ground waterproofing specifications and building regulations.
Timber Preservation
Comprehensive timber preservation treatments combat dry rot, wet rot, and wood-boring insect infestations. Our process includes affected timber removal, chemical treatments, and preventive measures to protect structural elements. We restore compromised wooden structures while maintaining their original characteristics and load-bearing capabilities.
Flood Restoration
Emergency flood restoration services return properties to habitable condition following water damage incidents. Our systematic approach includes water extraction, structural drying, and mould prevention measures. We employ thermal imaging and moisture mapping to ensure complete drying before implementing permanent repairs.
Wall Ties Replacement
Professional wall tie replacement restores structural stability to cavity wall constructions. We diagnose failing wall ties through detailed inspections and install remedial ties using stainless steel materials. Our process maintains building integrity while addressing corrosion and structural movement issues in both residential and commercial properties.

Report
We had a damp and mould problem at home. Luke from Dorset DPC carried out a survey within just a few days of us contacting Dorset DPC. He was very knowledgeable and honest with his advice. We had our report within an hour so arranged to have the work done and we were fitted in the next day! Richie installed vents for us and he turned up on time, was very friendly and finished the work promptly. He left no mess at all! I would highly rate and recommend Dorset DPC; very quick, reliable, professional, honest and friendly team! Thank you so much to everyone there.

Report
Luke and his team came round to sort out a hole in our roof! Luke quickly diagnosed the problem and was able to provide a solution that means we should hopefully never have the same issue again! The work was done to a really high standard by Richie and the apprentice and everything was left tidy. Thank you!!
