Managing damp in Kent properties

Kent is home to around 1.85 million people and there are a wide range of commercial and residential properties in the region. From modern new-builds to traditional properties, damp and dry rot can cause damage in any type of home.

When left untreated, damp can spread and cause further structural damage that will be much more expensive to fix. Living in a damp property is also bad for your health and can lead to help problems, particularly for the very young and very old. Damp properties are also more difficult to heat, which can increase your energy bills.

To help avoid the negative effects of damp, Tapco HomeDry offers comprehensive damp surveys and treatment that will find the root cause of the problem and provide solutions to restore your property.

Damp surveys in Kent

You might be wondering what is included in a damp survey and how we can help you. The first step in our process is to carry out a full damp survey of your property, looking for the common telltale signs of damp.

Once we have identified which areas are affected by damp, we will carry out tests using specialist equipment to determine the extent and the source of the damp. This will have an impact on the recommended treatments so it is an essential step in a damp survey.

After we have completed the survey, we will provide the property owner with a comprehensive report that outlines the cause of the damp and recommended steps to fix it. We can also provide advice and support during renovation works such as a basement conversion.

In addition to damp surveys, we also carry out all remedial work and will provide a quote alongside your damp survey to help you to understand the requirements and the cost. All work is carried out by our skilled and professional team, so you know you’re in good hands.
