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


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.
Every survey carried out by Northway is supported by clear, written report detailing our findings, diagnosis and recommendations. Prepared by PCA - CSTDB-qualified surveyors, your report provides a professional record of the damp condition within your property and, where necessary, the appropriate treatment 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.

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.
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!
