Frequently Asked Questions
Q: Is a chemical damp proof course always required?
No. High moisture readings are often caused by bridged cavities, high masonry salt concentrations, leaking rain pipes, or plaster touching damp sub-concrete slabs. We specify the correct remedy based on moisture analysis first.
Q: Do you repair the plasterwork after treatment?
Yes. Traditional gypsum finishes fail rapidly if re-applied to salt-affected bricks. We specify and apply heavy sand-cement renders with salt-inhibitors or traditional lime plaster to protect walls permanently.
