Damp Proof Course Injections

A chemical damp proof course injection carried out by our damp experts is a non-intrusive and cost-effective way of damp proofing your property and protecting against rising damp.

What is a damp proof course injection?

A damp proof course injection is a method of damp proofing that involves inserting a silicone-based cream into holes drilled in your property’s mortar joints. This damp proofing cream then acts as a water-resistant barrier, preventing groundwater from moving through the property’s masonry due to capillary action, and therefore preventing rising damp.

A damp proof course injection is suitable for brickwork properties that have never had a damp proof course installed, or where the existing damp proof course has failed.

Why choose a damp proof course injection over a damp proof membrane?

A chemical damp proof course injection is just one method of damp proofing your property, the other common option being the installation of a damp proof membrane. Whilst effective, the main issue with installing a damp proof membrane is that it is a more complex, lengthy and therefore costly process.

On the other hand, a damp proof course injection is quick, non-intrusive and easier on your pocket, providing the same results when installed correctly by one of our experienced professionals. If you are at all concerned about the lifespan of our damp proof course injections, rest assured that we offer a 20 year guarantee for all damp proof courses we install!

Can I install a damp proof course injection myself?

There are number of DIY damp proof course injection products available on the market, however, we would caution you against undertaking damp proofing yourself and instead seek the help of a trained professional.

This is because there are a number of factors that contribute to the overall effectiveness of your damp proof course, such as the height and depth of the holes drilled, the distance between these holes, and the amount of damp proofing cream injected. Doing even one of the steps incorrectly could compromise the effectiveness of your chemical damp proof course and result in a lot of time and wasted money - so why not ensure the job is done right first time and call in a professional?
