Services
Damp Proofing
Our damp proofing solutions address structural moisture issues in basements and cellars. Using traditional tanking methods and modern membranes, we create watertight environments that prevent water ingress. This essential service protects properties from damage caused by rising damp and groundwater pressure, ensuring long-term structural integrity for both residential and commercial buildings.
Rising Damp Treatment
Specialist treatments for rising damp in older properties where original damp proof courses have failed. We implement effective remedial solutions that stop moisture migration through walls, preventing salt contamination and decorative damage. Our approach combines proven techniques with careful diagnosis to resolve this common issue in historic buildings.
Basement Conversions
Transforming underused basements into functional living or commercial spaces. Our comprehensive conversions include structural waterproofing, ventilation solutions, and habitable design integration. We handle projects from initial damp eradication through to complete interior fit-out, creating valuable additional space for homeowners and businesses.
Timber Treatments
Professional timber preservation services combat rot, fungal growth, and insect infestations. We treat structural woodwork affected by moisture issues, implementing protective measures against dry rot, wet rot, and wood-boring beetles. Our treatments restore timber integrity while preventing future degradation in both traditional and modern properties.
Cellar Tanking
Traditional basement tanking systems create complete waterproof barriers in subterranean spaces. We install seamless lining systems that form protective 'tanks' around vulnerable areas, effectively managing groundwater pressure. This specialist service transforms damp-prone cellars into dry, usable spaces while maintaining structural authenticity in older buildings.
