Damp Proofing

Why Damp Problems Should Never Be Ignored

Damp is far more than a cosmetic issue. If left untreated, it can lead to:

  •  
  • Structural deterioration of walls and floors
  • Rotting timber and damaged joinery
  • Mould and mildew growth
  • Poor indoor air quality
  • Unpleasant odours
  • Increased heating costs
  • Reduced property value
  • Potential health concerns, particularly for those with respiratory conditions
Early intervention can save thousands of pounds in future repair costs while helping maintain a safe, healthy, and comfortable living environment.

Our Comprehensive Damp Proofing Services in London

At Clarkes 247, we begin every project with a thorough damp survey to identify the source of moisture and recommend the most effective treatment plan. Our damp proofing services include:

Rising Damp Treatment

Rising damp occurs when groundwater travels upwards through brickwork and masonry due to a failed or missing damp proof course (DPC). Common signs include:
  • Tide marks on walls
  • Crumbling plaster
  • Salt deposits
  • Damp skirting boards
  • Peeling wallpaper
Our specialists can install modern chemical damp-proof courses and associated treatments to prevent moisture from rising through your property’s walls.

Penetrating Damp Solutions

Penetrating damp is often caused by external defects such as:
  • Damaged brickwork
  • Cracked render
  • Faulty roofing
  • Leaking gutters
  • Defective pointing
We identify the source of water ingress and carry out targeted repairs and damp proofing treatments to prevent further damage.

Condensation & Mould Control

Condensation is one of the most common causes of damp in London properties. Poor ventilation allows moisture to build up indoors, creating ideal conditions for mould growth. Our solutions include:
  • Ventilation improvements
  • Moisture control measures
  • Anti-condensation treatments
  • Mould prevention recommendations
  • Property airflow assessments

Damp Proof Membranes

We install high-performance damp-proof membranes and moisture barriers to prevent water penetration and protect internal finishes.

Basement Waterproofing & Tanking

Basements and lower ground floors are particularly vulnerable to moisture ingress. Our waterproofing and tanking systems create a protective barrier that helps keep below-ground spaces dry and usable.

Damp Surveys & Inspections

Our experienced team carries out detailed damp inspections to accurately diagnose:
  • Rising damp
  • Penetrating damp
  • Condensation problems
  • Hidden moisture issues
  • Structural damp-related concerns
We provide clear recommendations and practical solutions tailored to your property.
