Why is Damp Proofing Important?

A damp proofing service will help prevent further damp problems from happening in your property. Without damp proofing, you leave your home or commercial property open to developing some serious side effects that can have dangerous consequences.

For example, when damp is left to get worse over time, it can result in the growth of black mould which releases toxic spores into the air. These toxic spores are then breathed in by all those who live in or frequent your property and can lead to serious health complications, especially for the young, elderly and those already suffering from respiratory complications like asthma.

Dry and wet rot attack the timbers of your property and when left to develop and spread, they eat away at the wood, softening and permeating it until it crumbles, compromising the structural integrity of the building and endangering all those inside.

So, if you think you have a damp problem, don’t let it fester. Get in touch with the experienced damp specialists at Croft on 01202 737739 and get the issue sorted once and for all with an affordable damp proofing service.

Identifying Damp

There are many different types of damp, each of which has unique identifying features that will help you tell them apart:

• Rising damp – tidemarks on interior walls of up to 1.5m and white salt deposits
• Penetrating damp –localised dark patches on walls and/or ceilings, moss or algae growth, damaged brickwork or guttering
• Condensation – fogging on the windows, black mould on windowsills and frames, peeling wallpaper and blistering paint
• Dry Rot – affects the timbers of a property which will feel brittle, cracked and have a white or mushroom-like growth
• Wet rot – timbers will feel ‘spongy’ and wet, crumble easily, exhibit a damp, musty odour and a black-fungus growth

As some types of damp have very similar symptoms, we include a full damp survey with our damp proofing service to ensure the correct identification and treatment the very first time around. Call 01202 737739 to arrange yours today.
