Local help for damp problems
Damp can creep in quietly, then make a real mess of your walls, plaster and peace of mind. We carry out damp proofing in Durham for homes and commercial properties, starting with a thorough inspection to find the true cause before any work begins. Rising damp, condensation control and moisture-related damage are all common issues in older properties, especially where ventilation is poor or previous repairs have only covered the surface.
We've spent more than 30 years dealing with these problems, and we know the difference between a quick patch-up and a proper fix. Northeast Damp and Ventilation takes a practical approach that helps you protect your building and avoid bigger repair bills later. When you need clear advice and trusted workmanship in Durham, we're ready to help.

Finding the cause before treating the symptom
A damp patch on its own doesn't tell the whole story, and that's where experience matters. We inspect affected areas carefully, looking at signs such as tide marks, flaking plaster, mould growth and musty smells to understand what is driving the moisture.
Our work can include damp proof courses, dry lining and remedial repairs where they're genuinely needed, rather than pushing work that doesn't suit the property. We keep the process straightforward, with honest advice that helps you make a sensible decision. That means you get a treatment plan that matches the building in front of us, not a one-size-fits-all answer.
