Services
Damp Proofing
Our damp proofing services address rising damp, penetrating damp, and condensation using chemical damp proof courses and neutralising solutions. We diagnose moisture sources and apply targeted treatments to prevent long-term damage. Our work includes plaster removal, damp proofing injection, and replastering, ensuring properties remain dry and structurally sound.
Basement Conversions
We transform basements into functional spaces like utility rooms, games rooms, or additional living areas. Our comprehensive service includes design, tanking systems, and structural modifications. We focus on waterproofing, space optimisation, and maintaining property value while adhering to strict timelines and client specifications.
Timber Treatments
Our timber treatments tackle dry rot, wet rot, and woodworm infestations through chemical sterilisation and timber replacement. We identify decay causes, apply preservatives, and ensure structural integrity. All work is guaranteed, with a focus on eliminating moisture sources to prevent recurrence.
Waterproofing
Specialist waterproofing solutions include cavity drain systems, pumped systems, and membrane installations for basements and underground spaces. We manage water ingress during heavy rainfall and install drainage systems to prevent flooding. Our methods ensure long-term dryness and usability of subterranean areas.
Basement Refurbishment
We refurbish basements by removing walls, installing tanking systems, and adding finishes like screeds and dry linings. Projects range from utility rooms to luxury living spaces, with a focus on practicality, aesthetics, and compliance with building regulations.
