Peeling paint on a damp wall before treatment

Specialist service

Damp Proofing in South Wales

Identify the cause of damp and provide the right treatment.

What the work involves

Rising, penetrating and below-ground damp treated at the cause.

Every job starts with a free survey so we can establish whether it is rising damp, penetrating damp or moisture sitting on cold surfaces.

We inject a silicone barrier for rising damp, or apply epoxy resin tanking where a wall needs sealing completely, then make the walls good ready for decoration.

What causes it

The causes we identify on damp proofing jobs

Rising damp

One of the three damp types we identify and resolve, treated with an injected silicone horizontal barrier forming a DPC.

Penetrating damp

Moisture entering the structure, resolved with damp proofing methods refined over decades of hands-on work.

Condensation-related damp

Diagnosed during the survey and addressed through insulation and ventilation rather than damp proofing.

Our process

How the work is carried out, step by step

01Comprehensive surveyOur process begins with a comprehensive survey to identify the root cause — rising damp, penetrating damp or condensation.
02Silicone DPC injectionFor damp proofing we use a silicone horizontal barrier injection method, creating a robust defence against moisture ingress.
03Epoxy resin tankingFor tanking we apply an epoxy resin that seals surfaces completely before any plastering work begins.
04Advice to prevent recurrenceTailored advice on improving insulation and ventilation to prevent future condensation problems.
