Protecting your home from damp

At Northeast Rising Damp and Ventilation, we understand the worry that damp can bring to your home. We're here to provide effective, lasting solutions and peace of mind. Discover how we can help you keep your property dry and healthy.

Addressing your damp concerns

Most customers contact us for damp proofing because they have damp patches on walls, peeling plaster, mould, or a damp smell in their home. Sometimes the problem is found during a house survey when buying or selling a property. Damp can cause significant damage to walls and timber if left untreated, so it is important to identify the cause and fix the problem properly.

Damp patches & peeling plaster

Visible signs of damp can quickly deteriorate the appearance and structural integrity of your walls.

Mould & damp smells

Unpleasant odours and mould growth indicate a deeper issue that needs professional attention.

Our comprehensive approach to damp proofing

When solving damp problems, our first step is to inspect the property thoroughly to identify the root cause. Not all damp is rising damp; many problems are caused by condensation or poor ventilation, so a correct diagnosis is crucial. Once we understand the cause, we recommend the most effective solution and carry out the work to prevent the damp problem from returning.

Why choose us for damp proofing?

What makes Northeast Rising Damp and Ventilation different is our focus on diagnosing damp problems properly before recommending any work. Many damp issues are actually caused by condensation or poor ventilation rather than rising damp, so it is important to install the correct solution the first time.
