Spotting the signs of damp

The first signs of damp aren’t always visible as they are commonly found in hard to reach areas of your home, such as behind large pieces of furniture where air circulation is poor. As such, the first sign of damp in your home is often a musty or earthy odour. Don’t try to mask this; instead, look for these further signs of damp:

  • Peeling wallpaper
  • Flaking paintwork or blistered paintwork
  • Warped and soft floorboards
  • Mould patches on walls, ceilings and floors
  • Walls that are cold and damp to touch
  • Excess moisture on your windows

If you notice these issues in your home, call our expert team to arrange a survey.

What is damp proofing?

Damp proofing is any process that helps to protect a property from water ingress. Moisture from the outside can be very damaging to homes, and it can also cause structural issues if it reaches your cavity wall ties. Not to mention, damp can become a health hazard, particularly for the very young and the very old. We offer a wide range of industry-leading treatments to address damp in your home.

We might recommend a damp proof course to upgrade or replace your existing one. These are known to fail over time, and this could allow damp to slowly seep up your foundations and into your home. We can also provide basement tanking for below ground rooms that need to deal with the hydrostatic pressure. Both methods are highly effective for keeping moisture out of your home.
