Stop damp before it spreads

Damp rarely stays in one place for long. It can start as a faint musty smell, a patch of peeling wallpaper or a tide mark near the skirting, then move on to flaking plaster, mould growth and damage to your walls. We begin by finding the actual cause, because rising damp, condensation control and water ingress don't behave the same way and shouldn't be treated the same way either.

 

Our survey looks at the warning signs in context, from staining patterns to ventilation issues, so you get advice that makes sense for your property. We've spent 30 years dealing with these problems across Durham, and that experience helps us spot what others can miss. Northeast Damp and Ventilation carries out damp proofing work that protects your building properly, not just the bit you can see today.

How our survey and treatment process works

First, we inspect the affected areas and check for the tell-tale signs that point to the source of the moisture. If a failed or missing damp proof course is part of the problem, we explain the most suitable rising damp remedial option and what the work involves.

 

We check related issues such as poor airflow, damaged plaster or salts left behind in the wall, because these can keep causing trouble after the surface dries out. Our treatment plan is practical and clear, so you know what needs doing and why. When you contact us in Durham, you'll get straight answers and a free survey without any pressure.
