What is damp proofing?

This is an essential part of the construction process and should not be overlooked. The most common type of damp proofing is known as a damp proof course, or DPC. A special chemical is injected into your brickwork to create an impermeable moisture barrier. This prevents moisture from rising up from your foundations. Your damp proof course may fail over time due to small shifts in the house foundations.

Another common method for protecting your property is known as basement tanking. This is a method used for below ground rooms where the pressure of the water in the earth around your home would make a damp proof course ineffective. Instead, we coat the walls and floors with a special covering to stop moisture from getting through. You don’t have to be an expert in damp proofing; we will advise you every step of the way.

How do I spot the signs of damp?

By learning to spot the early signs of damp, you can avoid expensive repairs further down the line. Often the first sign of a damp problem will be something that you can smell rather than see. So if you notice a new earthy or musty smell in your home, it might be time to investigate further.

Upon further inspection, you might discover the following telltale signs of damp:

  • Peeling wallpaper or paintwork
  • Warped floorboards and skirting boards
  • Water marks on walls and ceilings
  • Moisture build up on windows
  • Increasing energy bills while your home feels colder
  • Walls that are cold or damp to touch
  • Mould or mildew on walls or soft furnishings
