Types Of Damp We Treat?
Rising Damp
Rising damp is when water enters a building and rises up through the walls. It's caused by poor ventilation which allows moisture
to accumulate around the foundations, seep through cracks and into the walls. This leads to discoloration and damage to the structure.
Penetrating Damp
Penetrating damp is a problem that affects buildings and causes damage to both the structure and contents.
It happens when water penetrates through walls or floors, or from rising damp from the ground. Mold growth and black staining on walls are common signs of this dampness, making it imperative to take action quickly..
Condensation & Mould
Condensation, a natural occurrence in homes, is more likely in high humidity areas such as bathrooms, kitchens,
and cellars. This excess moisture can lead to mold growth, causing health and property damage. To prevent mold, it's crucial to address condensation promptly.
Woodworm Treatment
Woodworm encompasses insects like termites and carpenter ants that damage wood in forests and homes, furniture, and structures.
They cause severe structural harm by consuming dead wood, but can be controlled with natural or chemical solutions.
Wet and Dry Rot
Wet and Dry Rot are two types of wood decay caused by fungi. Wet Rot occurs when wood absorbs too much water,
allowing fungi to grow and spread, eventually rotting the entire piece. Dry Rot, caused by Oomycetes fungi, spreads from wood surface to nearby pieces and can cause serious structural damage.
Structural Damp
Structural damp is a slow and gradual process of water damage to a building caused by moisture in the foundation or walls.
It can result in structural damage, such as rotting timber, peeling paint, and mold growth. Common causes include water seeping through the building exterior from a leaky roof, faulty gutters, or clogged downspouts

Excess moisture absorption in your property can cause damp issues and damage the walls. So it is essential to use a Damp Proof Course (DPC) to protect your property against moisture rising from the ground. Therefore, you must ensure that your property has a practical damp-proof course to repel water from the land.
Several types of Damp-proof courses can be used on your property's walls. Mainly three types of DPC used are
- Damp Proof Course Injection
- Mortar Injection Damp Proof Course
- Electro Osmotic Damp Proof Course
The DPC course is provided wherever there is a doubt of water rise due to capillary action. In buildings with a brick wall structure, a DPC is a layer of waterproof material running continuously around the building, usually just above ground level or above flood level, such that although the brickwork below it is going to get wet, the water will not rise by capillary action within the wall.
Look out for black spot mould forming on interior walls, plaster peeling off walls, wet rot, watermarks created by either rising damp or penetrating damp and other damages caused by moisture. If all these signs are present, you need a damp proof course to save your property from timber decay or structural damage.
