Is woodworm, wet rot or dry rot damaging your property's timber? If so, contact GCL Damp-Proofing & Services. We can spray the timber and carry out the corresponding treatments to ensure your timber retains its strength and supports the structural integrity of your home. Are your floorboards weak? Have you noticed any small round holes in the timber joists? If so, the timber in your property may be infested by woodworm. You may not realise that your property has a woodworm infestation until the damage to your property is visible.

Cellars are often damp and unusable beyond storing bottles of wine and used tins of paint. You can make full use of your basement or cellar by keeping it dry. Tanking can help. It is an impermeable waterproofing coating applied to the walls and floor of cellars that prevents damp getting in. Damp walls are common in cellars because they are built below the ground. Water from the surrounding earth can penetrate through the walls, carrying salt and minerals with it. Damp walls can create issues with condensation and also provide the perfect base for mould growth.

Black mould can develop where there is excess condensation. At GCL Damp-Proofing & Services, we sell black mould sprays for temporary removal and paints for a permanent finish, preventing mould regrowth. Contact us today! Black mould control involves certain procedures that can prevent or control mould growth. However, as different properties have different environmental conditions, so we need to assess properties individually. Contact GCL Damp-Proofing & Services for black mould treatment today!
