Rising Damp Treatment in Dronfield
Properties in Dronfield, especially older or stone-built homes are particularly susceptible to rising damp. This is due to the area’s geological and climatic conditions.
Rising damp occurs when moisture from the ground levels travels upward through porous building materials like bricks and mortar. Leading to visible signs such as peeling paint, damp patches, and a musty odour. If left untreated, it can cause significant structural damage and promote mould growth.
At 24/7 AMPM, we specialise in diagnosing and treating rising damp in Dronfield and the surrounding areas. Our comprehensive approach includes:
- Damp Proof Course (DPC) Installation -Â We install a physical damp proof membrane or chemical barrier. Helping to prevent moisture from rising through the walls.
- Chemical Damp Proofing -Â Using advanced damp proofing injections, we create an effective moisture barrier within the masonry wall structure.
- Ventilation Solutions -Â Improving airflow to reduce humidity levels and prevent future damp issues.
