Dampness comes in many forms and if left untreated can become a major problem in the home or workplace. As a trained expert I will give you a comprehensive analysis of the problem and advise you on the best options available. Non-destructive testing of timber which enables accurate detection of hidden timber defects. A thin needle like drill bit is driven into the timber, the resistance is measured, recorded and printed, an evidential graph is produced. As a waterproofing specialist I can advise on all aspects of; Structural Waterproofing, Cavity Drainage, Tanking, BS 8102 Waterproofing Regulations.
Many Damp contractors offer free or reduced fee surveys but it must be remembered that they are also trying trying to sell you work and so they are not offering independent advice. This is why Independent damp surveyors are often the best solution to get honest and expert advice. I am independent so I am not a sales person. When I survey your property I will only be doing this to offer you advice, solutions and to advise you on estimated costs that will be incurred when and if you chose to have a contractor or builder carry out remedial works.
I also investigate existing waterproofing, which may have failed, to locate the source of the failure and suggest remedial action to remedy the failure. On site visits are followed by a detailed report listing faults found and remedial corrective treatment. Normally one visit is made as part of the investigation, however depending on the size and complexity of the structure several visits may be required. The British Standard gives recommendations and provides guidance on methods dealing with and preventing entry of water from surrounding ground into a structure below ground level.
