What is damp proofing?
Damp proofing can mean many different things, depending on the location and cause of the damp.
The most common type of damp proofing is a damp proof course. This is used in above ground rooms to stop rising damp. It is a chemical injection into your brickwork that helps to create an impermeable barrier to moisture.
Basement tanking is used in below ground rooms. This is ideal for spaces where a damp proof course would not be effective and the risk of damp and moisture ingress is very high.
In some cases, improved ventilation is needed to help address the problem of damp. This is because everyday activities lead to an excess of moisture which cannot leave your home by any other means.
Plumbing problems and issues with your room or windows could also lead to a damp problem. This is where a damp survey comes in handy, as it will identify the source of the problem.
