What is damp proofing?
Damp proofing measures will vary depending on the source of the damp and the underlying cause.
- A damp proof course is commonly used to protect the whole home by preventing water from rising up through your cavity wall. This is a chemical injection that creates an impermeable barrier to moisture.
- Basement tanking is used to protect below ground spaces where a damp proof course would not be effective. This helps to prevent penetrating damp.
- Improved ventilation can help to prevent damp caused by everyday use of your home, including condensation build up on windows and walls.
- Addressing plumbing faults, cracks in your roof tiles and faulty rendering can help to prevent moisture ending up in the wrong place in your home.
The best damp proofing measures will vary depending on the source and extent of your issues. We can advise on the best course of action for your needs.

Spotting the signs of damp
As a homeowner, you should learn more about the early signs of damp so that you can act quickly at the first sign of trouble. The early stages of damp might not be very visible, but it’s likely that you’ll be able to smell the common earthy or musty odour.
Damp might appear first in hard to reach areas, such as behind wardrobes or in lesser used areas of your home. Further inspection will reveal the following issues:
- Wallpaper peeling from the wall
- Blistered or peeling paintwork
- Warped and soft floorboards
- Patches of mould or mildew on walls, ceilings and floors
- Walls that are cold to touch
- Excess moisture on windows and exterior facing walls
If you notice these issues in your home, call our expert team to arrange a survey.
