Damp-proof course (DPC) installation

We use the most advanced techniques to insert a barrier into the walls to prevent further moisture from entering.

Step 2Free Quote

After the inspection, the specialist will provide a free quote for the recommended course of action to address the rising damp issue. This will include a detailed breakdown of the costs involved.

Step 3Job Starts

Once you have accepted the quote, the specialist will start the job at the earliest available date convenient for you. They will arrive on time and fully equipped to begin the treatment process.

Step 4Remove skirting boards and render to expose the brick closest to the floor level

To begin the treatment process, the specialist will remove skirting boards and render to expose the brick closest to the floor level. This will allow for better access to the affected area.

Step 5Drill 2 holes (10mm thick) into each brick.

The specialist will then drill two holes into each brick, ⅓ of the way up, using a 10mm thick drill bit. After this, they will insert injection lances into the pre-drilled holes and inject under pressure until the brick is completely saturated. This process will be repeated until a continuous connection has been made. Finally, the specialist will remove the lances, clean up the area and restore the skirting boards and render.

Our Frequently Asked Questions

Sub-floor ventilation helps to reduce the amount of moisture in the air by introducing fresh air and removing stale air. This can help to prevent the growth of mould and mildew, and can also help to reduce the risk of damage to the building's structure.

Concrete crack injection is a method of filling and sealing cracks in concrete structures to prevent the infiltration of moisture. This can help to prevent rising damp by preventing ground moisture from entering the building through cracks in the foundation or walls.

Repairs may include installing vents in the walls or foundation, creating a system of air circulation within the building, damp-proofing, or injecting concrete cracks. Our experts will provide an assessment of the building to decide which type of repair is appropriate for the specific case.

Yes, rising damp can cause health problems. The excess moisture can lead to the growth of mould and mildew, which can trigger allergic reactions and respiratory issues in some individuals.
