Hope Damp Proofing

Dampness goes hand-in-hand with living on the west coast. This beautiful scenery does not come without a price tag, and for property owners, that is moisture. If left unchecked, dampness is known to creep indoors where it can cause damage. As the rainy season rolls in, it is not uncommon for soil to become saturated and this means water resting against vulnerable foundations and creeping inside structures. If you are hoping to protect your property, call Pete & Son for your Hope damp proofing services.

How Does Moisture Impact Your Property?

In its simplest form, damp proofing is a spray or physical addition that is used to create a barrier between the moisture outside and interior areas. For those newly built structures, damp proofing is often implemented during construction but this is not the case for all properties.

The need for damp proofing will change from property to property and are all dependent on methods of construction, climate and rainfall, foundation and soil conditions.. In addition to precipitation itself, homeowners need to be aware of rising damp. Rising damp occurs when moisture from the ground level creeps upward through the capillaries of your construction materials.

Even if your property has been outfitted with damp proofing, materials can degrade or shift over time. Moisture eats away at vulnerable materials, causing deterioration, which in turn leads to costly repairs and replacements. In addition to damage to your property, excessive moisture can lead to mould. Black mould is known to lead to serious illness and respiratory damage, which leads to long-term negative effects. For all these reasons and more, damp proofing is necessary to keeping your structure in great shape and tenants healthy.

I called them this morning and they showed up same day by the afternoon, which was amazing. The technician Kevin was very professional and went above and beyond what I was expecting. He spent a few hours solving our complicated blockage and now our drains are finally clear. I highly recommend this company and I'll be using them again if need be.

Had to get a plumber on New years day due to a blockage, called around and was met with unwilling responses..talked to Dennis and he was ready to go, warned me of the double time he had to charge on the holiday but was efficient and even placed me in priority of another call he had farther out in the service area. Was professional, efficient and courteous to my tenants. Really fair on his time spent there, I was very happy to have called them. Thanks again Dennis.
