Damp Problems

Signs You Have a Damp Problem

Damp rarely fixes itself. The sooner the cause is found, the less plaster, paint and flooring you have to replace.

What We Do

Our Damp Proofing Services

Each job starts with finding where the water comes from: rising from the ground, pushing through the wall or condensation inside.

Rising Damp Treatment

Treatment for walls where the damp proof course has failed or was never installed.

Penetrating Damp

Cracks, failed render and leaking details sealed so rain stops coming through the wall.

Wall, Slab and Basement Waterproofing

Moisture barriers for walls, slabs, foundations and below ground areas.

Crack Injection and Sealing

Structural and hairline cracks sealed before they let water in.

Replastering and Restoration

Damaged plaster removed, walls skimmed and refinished once the damp is fixed.

Damp Resistant Paint Systems

Primers and coatings from Dulux, Plascon and ABE to protect the finished wall.

FAQ

Damp Proofing Questions

What causes rising damp?

Rising damp happens when ground moisture moves up through the wall because the damp proof course is missing, damaged or bridged, for example by a raised paving or garden level.

Why does damp come back after repainting?

Because the paint was covering the symptom, not stopping the moisture. Until the source is fixed, water keeps moving through the wall and pushes the new paint off again.

What affects the cost of damp proofing?

The cause of the damp, the length and height of wall affected, how much plaster has to be replaced and the finish required. We confirm all of this on site before quoting.

When can the wall be painted after damp repairs?

Only once the wall and new plaster have dried out properly. Painting too early traps moisture, so we check the wall before the final coats go on.

Can I just paint over damp walls?

No. Paint over a wet wall will bubble and peel again within months. The source of the moisture has to be fixed first, then the wall can be restored and painted.

Do you give free quotes for damp proofing?

Yes. We inspect the problem, explain the cause and give you a written quotation at no cost.

Which areas do you cover?

We are based in Gqeberha and work across Nelson Mandela Bay, including Kariega and Despatch, and the wider Eastern Cape such as Jeffreys Bay, Port Alfred and East London.
