IDENTIFYING & TREATING DAMP
PENETRATING DAMP
Penetrating damp is the build up of moisture that goes through external walls and into your property. This can often be incorrectly diagnosed as rising damp, however it can be far more serious. Penetrating damp can lead to wood rot, heat loss, frost damage, and often leaves water damage on your walls. It often occurs in older properties but can be seen in newer buildings as well.
RISING DAMP
Rising damp affects the walls of your property and is mostly rare. It travels from the ground up and through your walls and can be absorbed into the other materials of your home such as plasterboard and timber. Rising damp can be spotted by damage to your wall, wallpaper, paint, and plaster, often creating a visible stain. Rising damp can be a serious problem if it is left untreated by a professional. Get in touch with our team today to find out how we can help.
CONDENSATION
Most of us are familiar with condensation and often spot it on our windows during the winter months. This can be through drying your clothes indoors, more frequent use of central heating, or even cooking or boiling the kettle. All of these things create more humidity in the air, creating the perfect environment for condensation to thrive. It can affect properties of all sizes and can lead to further problems such as damp and mould if left untreated.
Condensation is easy to spot and has clear signs to look out for such as steamy or fogged windows, or even water on your windowsills and frames. This can lead to black mould which is a major risk to your health and needs to be treated as soon as possible.
MOULD REMOVAL
Whilst some forms of mould can be removed with special cleaning products, it is always best to get it seen to by a professional. Mould is incredibly damaging to your health and when the spores are released can cause itching of the skin, rashes, and more! Mould can cause an even greater risk to the elderly and young children.
For this reason, it is important to make sure that the mould in your property is identified and treated correctly. Our team can assess the mould issue for you and advise on the best course of action to remove it and prevent further mould from growing.
