Combat Rising Damp and Lateral Damp with Our Targeted Damp Proofing Solutions
Rising damp and lateral damp are common moisture-related issues that can impact the structural integrity and health of your property. At Palette Group, we offer specialized damp proofing solutions to combat rising damp and lateral damp, providing targeted treatments to prevent moisture infiltration and protect your building from damp-related problems.
Services
Our damp proofing services include:
Rising Damp
Rising damp occurs when groundwater rises through capillary action in porous building materials, such as brick, stone, or concrete. This moisture can lead to unsightly damp patches, peeling paint, mold growth, and potential damage to interior finishes. Our rising damp treatment includes:
Injection Damp Proofing
Our skilled technicians inject a chemical damp proof course (DPC) into the affected walls to create a protective barrier that prevents moisture from rising further. This method effectively stops the upward movement of water, safeguarding your property from the damaging effects of rising damp.
Replastering and Remedial Works
We offer comprehensive replastering and remedial works to repair and restore areas affected by rising damp. This may involve removing and replacing damaged plaster, installing new DPCs, and applying specialized coatings to prevent future moisture ingress.
Lateral Damp
Lateral damp, also known as penetrating damp, occurs when water infiltrates the building through external walls, roofs, or structural defects. This type of dampness can cause damp patches, staining, and deterioration of building materials. Our lateral damp treatment includes:
External Waterproofing
Our team applies waterproof coatings or membranes to the exterior walls to create a protective barrier against water penetration. This method effectively seals the building envelope, preventing lateral damp from entering and causing damage to the interior spaces.
Repointing and Repairs
We conduct repointing and repairs to address any structural defects that may be allowing water ingress. By repairing cracks, gaps, and damaged mortar joints, we ensure that your property is effectively protected from lateral damp and maintains its structural integrity.
