Damp Proofing in Wivenhoe

Wivenhoe is a town in Essex, in the Colchester council area. It’s around 9 miles west of our base in Thorpe-le-Soken.

Guarantees and materials

We offer 10 or 20-year guarantees on damp proof injection work and 10 years on basements, all insurance-backed through Guarantee Protection Insurance Ltd (GPI). The chemicals we use are environmentally friendly with a same-day re-entry period.

Finding the cause of the damp

Damp can come from several places – rising damp from the ground, penetrating damp through walls and roofs, or condensation from everyday living. Our surveyor checks the property, finds where the moisture is coming from and explains the treatment in a written report.

How we treat damp

Depending on what the survey finds, we can inject a new damp proof course, fit damp proof membranes and replaster, treat penetrating damp, tackle condensation and mould, and treat timber affected by rot or woodworm. For cellars and basements we also offer full waterproofing.

We also offer basement conversions in Wivenhoe, house extensions in Wivenhoe and property restoration in Wivenhoe. Find out more about our damp proofing and timber treatment, or visit our dedicated damp proofing website for more on damp.
