Services
Damp Proofing
Our damp proofing solutions address rising damp, penetrating damp, and condensation issues using advanced techniques and materials. We conduct thorough surveys to identify root causes, then implement tailored treatments including damp-proof courses and ventilation improvements. Ideal for homeowners and businesses seeking long-term protection against moisture damage in both modern and historic properties.
Timber Treatment
Specialist timber treatments combat woodworm, dry rot, and wet rot through chemical preservation and structural repairs. We use industry-approved methods to restore compromised timbers while maintaining aesthetic integrity. Suitable for residential properties, listed buildings, and commercial spaces requiring compliance with conservation standards and building regulations.
Structural Waterproofing
Structural waterproofing systems protect basements and underground structures from water ingress using membrane systems and drainage solutions. Our installations meet British Standard 8102 standards, ensuring durability in both new builds and retrofit projects. Clients benefit from enhanced property usability and reduced maintenance costs over time.
Property Renovation
Comprehensive renovation services address decayed masonry, damaged renders, and degraded plastering systems. We employ specialist techniques for historic buildings while delivering modern upgrades like thermal wall insulation. Our approach balances heritage compliance with energy efficiency improvements for residential and commercial clients.
Thermal Wall Upgrades
Thermal wall upgrades improve energy efficiency through cavity insulation and internal/external insulation systems. We integrate these solutions with damp remediation to prevent condensation issues. Ideal for property owners seeking reduced heating costs and improved environmental performance without compromising structural integrity.
