Damp Proofing
Our damp proofing services address rising damp through chemical damp proof courses and membrane systems. We assess moisture levels and install tailored solutions to prevent further damage. Our team ensures properties are protected with long-term, effective treatments.
Timber Treatment
We eradicate fungal decay and infestation using industry-standard methods. Our surveyors identify issues early and apply treatments to restore structural integrity. Replacements and repairs are carried out to preserve building longevity.
Basement Conversions
Transform underused basements into functional living areas. We handle waterproofing, structural work, and finishing to add value and space. Projects include entertainment rooms, kitchens, and additional bedrooms.
Structural Stabilisation
We reinforce buildings affected by movement using Cintec and Thor Helical systems. Our solutions bond walls and floors to restore stability, addressing cracks and load-bearing concerns in older properties.
