Understanding Damp in Properties

Damp is not a single problem. It is a symptom caused by moisture entering or forming within a property. Correct treatment depends entirely on identifying the source of the moisture. The three most common forms of damp are rising damp, penetrating damp and condensation.

Indicators of damp include:
  • Tide marks on walls
  • Peeling paint or plaster
  • Damp patches that worsen after rain
  • Mould growth and condensation
  • Cold, damp walls

ⓘ A professional survey can determine the true cause of damp and whether treatment is required.

Professional Damp Survey

Our PCA - CSTDB qualified surveyors will begin with a detailed survey to establish the source of moisture, the type of damp present, and the extent of internal damage. We will then, identify if treatment is required.

Our Process:
1
Internal & External Inspection
Walls, floors, ventilation and building defects assessed.

Moisture & Environmental Testing
Moisture readings and contributing factors identified.

Damp Remedial Works Where Required

If rising damp or moisture ingress is confirmed, Northway will recommend the appropriate treatment, which may include installation of a new Damp Proof Course (DPC), Damp Proof Memberane, repairing defects causing penetrating damp, or improving ventilation to control condensation. Treatment is only recommended where necessary and tailored to the survey findings. If treatment is required our NVQ Level-3 Plasterer's will return your property to a factory-finish.

FAQs

Is damp proofing always required if walls feel damp?

No. A survey is needed to identify the cause before any treatment is recommended.

How do you tell the difference between rising damp and condensation?

We assess moisture patterns, ventilation and wall conditions to determine the true source of the problem.

Can penetrating damp be mistaken for other types of damp?

Yes. Water ingress from external defects can appear similar to other damp issues without a proper inspection.

How long does a damp survey take?

Most surveys take between 45 and 90 minutes depending on the size of the property.

Do you provide guarantees if treatment is required?

Yes. Our treatments are supported by 20-year insurance-backed guarantees for peace of mind.

Lewis from Northway was polite, knowledgeable, and professional from the outset. We received a detailed report quickly and a very reasonable quote. The work was efficiently carried out and Lewis provided helpful advice afterwards.

Cannot thank Lewis enough for his prompt and professional advice. He clearly knows what hes talking about and was able to provide a diagnosis immediately to the issue. Fortunately for us it wasn't the dreaded woodworm but I would have no hesitation in recommending Northway.

Heather Ellerker
Homeowner

Lewis and Lindsay were very good and professional. They explained all the job to be done in detailed and informative manner. They did timber preservation, vent installation with an added bonus of sealant application on our window. Will definitely recommend to our friends!
