How We Help
What you need is an invasive survey. By invasive we mean lifting floorboards, removing skirting boards, drilling samples for moisture content, removing small amounts of plaster for salt analysis, checking drains, wall cavities etc. Although, on pre-purchase surveys this isn’t always feasible. It’s not as simple as prodding a wall with a moisture metre.

Types of Damp
Dampness in homes and commercial buildings can occur due to various reasons and can be categorised into different types based on their causes and characteristics:
Wet & Dry Rot

Structural Damp
Structural dampness refers to the unwanted presence of moisture within a building’s structure, stemming from either external penetration or internal condensation. A significant portion of building dampness issues arises from condensation, rain entering the structure, or rising damp.
Penetrating Damp
This happens when water enters a building from the outside and spreads through walls or roofs due to leaks in pipes, roofs, gutters, or cracks in the walls. It can cause damp patches, mould, or decay in affected areas.

DampX where superb from start to finish! Our problem was a due to our external path bridging the damp course. The team completed the work timely and were very clean and considerate with our property. We will have no hesitation in recommending DampX to friends and family.
Russell - Wetherby
★★★★★
We had three damp surveys completed by different companies at our property with DAMPX being one of them. The attention to detail of their survey was on a completely different level. The other companies were in and out within 30 minutes. DampX were here for around 2 hours! Unbelievable service and this was a free survey!

DampX completed our basement project. I found them to be very easy to talk to, nothing was too much hassle, a real genuine bunch of guys. Very impressed with the standard of work, the plastering finish is very smooth. I look forward to them returning in 12 months for our pump service. Keep up the great work guys and thank you for a wonderful job!
