Rising Damp Treatment & Removal
If you suspect your property has rising damp, you should contact a professional company to assess and treat the walls as a matter of priority. If left untreated for a significant period of time, rising damp can cause a number of serious problems to the property including staining and marking on the walls, peeling paintwork and wallpaper, formation of salts and hazardous mould spores, crumbling of wall paster, decayed skirting board and structural damage to timbers and floorboards.
In addition to this, damp walls offer poor heat retention properties, meaning an increase in costs for heating your home, especially throughout the colder winter months. At Damp Guard, we offer a complete service for the surveying, treatment, and removal of damp, including the replastering and redecoration of walls and skirting boards.
