Services
Damp Proofing
Our damp proofing solutions address penetrating and rising damp through chemical DPC installation, tanking systems, and waterproof membranes. We assess structural risks, treat affected areas, and implement long-term barriers to prevent recurrence. Ideal for residential and commercial properties in damp-prone regions.
Dry Rot Treatment
We eradicate dry rot by removing infected timber, treating masonry with fungicidal injections, and replacing compromised structural elements. Our methods include wall tanking and ventilation improvements to halt fungal spread and restore building integrity.
Cellar Conversion
Transform damp cellars into functional spaces using waterproof membranes, structural repairs, and condensation control. We complete projects from initial damp proofing to final plastering, ensuring habitable, dry environments suitable for living or storage.
Woodworm Treatment
We eliminate wood-boring beetles through chemical treatments, replace damaged timber, and apply protective coatings. Our approach targets both active infestations and prevention, preserving structural and decorative wood elements in homes and businesses.
Radon Gas Proofing
We mitigate radon gas risks with underfloor ventilation systems, sealed membranes, and pressure differential controls. Our solutions comply with safety standards, reducing radon levels in basements and ground-floor properties across high-risk areas.

Report
Would highly recommend. Work carried out on time just what I needed after being flooded a second time in 6 years. Neil and his crew did an excellent job and finished when they said they would so I could organise my insurance to do the rest. Excellent crew very friendly and did an excellent job at keeping everything clean which was very appreciated as I was still trading. Thanks Neil and crew
