If you are experiencing damp problems in your property, or are considering buying a property that you suspect is suffering from the effects of damp, mould, condensation, woodworm or rot, please get in touch with us. Although based in Gloucestershire, we are very happy to travel and tend to work within a fifty mile radius of Cheltenham.
The word 'damp' can often install fear into a householder, but often the cause and subsequent repair can be very straightforward and not costly at all. Sometimes, it is a simple case of leaking guttering or some missing flashing around a chimney that is the cause of penetrating damp or an ingress of water.
A little know fact is that 'condensation' is the most poular form of damp in the UK, and that it can sometimes be reduced or stopped by just making some simple changes to your lifestyle such as not drying wet washing in the house and opening the window after taking a shower.
One thing is certain, and that is that if you spot any signs of damp or rot in your property such as water droplets on your windows, black mould growth on surfaces, rotting or decaying skirting boards, or maybe a musty smell, then you should get in touch with us so we can investigate the cause for you and carry out a survey. Sometimes, the cost of treating the problem and damage caused to the fabric of the building can become more expensive if not dealt with correctly and promptly.
Using specialist equipment, we can identify what type of dampness (such as rising or penetrating damp) is causing the problem. Sometimes it can be a mixture of several different causes. Along with visual observations, we can give a full explanation and report on the cause of the damp. We will then explain what options we can offer to cure the problem permanently.
Proud to be a Sovereign Approved Contractor we are able to provide an insurance backed guarantee of up to 30 years on the damp proof and timber treatment work we carry out.
