Damp Proofing Services

Damp is a common problem in many homes, but just because it’s common, it doesn’t mean that it isn’t serious. If damp is left untreated, it can lead to structural damage and potentially even health problems due to mold.

What is Damp Proofing?

Unlike damp treatment, which is an attempt to get rid of damp, damp proofing describes different methods used to prevent damp from forming in the first place. It’s much easier to prevent damp than get rid of it, and the sooner you start, the better the results will be. The method of damp proofing will differ depending on the cause of your issues.
