FAQs
What causes condensation and black mould?
Condensation forms when warm, moisture-laden air comes into contact with colder surfaces. This excess moisture can lead to black mould growth, particularly in kitchens, bathrooms and poorly ventilated rooms. Improving ventilation and reducing indoor humidity are often key to preventing condensation problems.
Can damp cause health problems?
Persistent damp and mould can affect indoor air quality and may aggravate allergies, asthma and other respiratory conditions in some people. Addressing damp issues promptly helps create a healthier living environment and prevents further damage to your property.
How long does a damp survey take?
Most residential damp surveys take between 60 and 90 minutes, depending on the size of the property and the complexity of the issue. Your surveyor will inspect the affected areas, identify the source of the problem and explain the recommended course of action.
Do you offer damp surveys for commercial properties?
Yes. We provide damp surveys and property preservation services for residential and commercial buildings, including offices, retail premises, schools, housing associations, listed buildings and investment properties.
Can I stay in my home during damp proofing work?
In most cases, yes. Many damp proofing treatments can be completed while you remain in your property. If more extensive work is required, your surveyor will explain what to expect and advise if any rooms need to be temporarily vacated.
How long does damp proofing last?
Professionally installed damp proofing systems are designed to provide long-term protection when installed correctly and maintained appropriately. Many treatments are backed by guarantees for additional peace of mind.
