Trace began life in 1974, established by George and Julia Hockey, as 'North West Damp Proof Services'. In the 80's the trading name was changed to 'Trace Remedial Building Services' as we began to work outside of the North West and also to take on works beyond damp proofing. In 1998 we linked up with Basement Systems, an American basement waterproofing manufacturer, pioneering use of innovations such as the drainage channel system which changed the industry and was subsequently widely copied by every single UK based waterproofing material manufacturer.

Only rising damp can be cured by the installation of a chemical damp proof course. Rising damp is a commonly encountered problem in many types of building, however it is often misdiagnosed and many damp proof courses are installed unnecessarily. Condensation is produced by the occupiers of the property and a family of four can produce many litres of water in the form of vapour every day, (see our section on condensation for more information). When looking at Rising dampness, decayed skirting boards, crumbling or salt stained plaster, discolouration and staining, decayed timber floors, peeling paint and wallpaper are all common signs of damp.
As one of the leading damp proofing companies in England and Europe we work closely with our partners at Safeguard Europe. Safeguard is the leading company in the damp proofing and prevention industry and enables us at Eurodamp Ltd to offer the best products on the market to our consumers, along with over 25 years experience. We are also an approved and certified company working with most of the top building societies and insurance companies. We provide various works descriptions from damp proofing to roofing, leaks caused by faulty plumbing, woodworm, timber infestation and structural repairs.
When a Damp Proof Course has failed, the evidence is usually visible when damp patches start to appear. This moisture will eventually cause the plaster to perish, leaving unsightly areas of damaged paint and wallpaper. In most cases the affected areas will require the removal of wall finishes and stripping of plaster. We then treat the areas by means of damp proofing injection techniques through holes drilled through the external and internal brickwork. The holes are then injected with damp proofing solutions compliant with the British Standard BS5750.
