Damp proofing services in Normandy
We offer a wide range of services to help protect properties against the common threat of damp and water ingress. Every home is unique, so we start with a damp survey to better understand what measures are already in place and how they might be improved, replaced or upgraded.
Our recommendations are based on decades of industry insight into the best ways to protect your home. Thankfully, all of our recommendations can be retrofitted to homes, so you don’t have to worry about us digging into your foundations or causing disruption for your household. Once implemented, your home will be protected against moisture ingress, which can avoid structural problems in the future.
What is damp proofing?
This is an essential part of the construction process and should never be overlooked or ignored. The most common method for damp proofing a home is known as a damp proof course, or DPC. With a DPC, we inject a special chemical into the brickwork and this creates an impermeable moisture barrier to prevent rising damp entering your home through your foundations.
For below ground rooms, the threat of hydrostatic pressure from the earth around your home means that a damp proof course would not be effective. Instead, we employ a method known as basement tanking to protect basements and cellars from the risks associated with penetrating damp. We can help advise you on the right damp proofing interventions for your home.
We could also look at other factors such as ventilation or internal leaks as a possible source for excess moisture in the home. We can then work together to eliminate this threat and protect your property and possessions from mould and mildew buildup.
