DAMP PROOFING SERVICES IN WESTERHOPE
Different moisture problems require different solutions, making correct diagnosis an important part of effective damp treatment. Moisture Mend provides a comprehensive range of damp and property moisture services throughout Westerhope, from specialist surveys through to treatment and associated repairs.
DAMP PROOFING
Our damp proofing services address moisture rising through masonry as well as water penetrating from outside the property. We provide Rising Damp Treatment, Penetrating Damp Treatment and Damp Proof Course Installation, using suitable damp proofing systems where required.
SURVEYS & INSPECTIONS
Where the cause of damp or moisture is not immediately clear, an inspection can help establish the appropriate next step. Moisture Mend provides Damp Surveys, Mould Surveys, Condensation Surveys and Wood Rot Surveys for a range of property moisture concerns.
MOULD TREATMENT
Mould growth can become persistent where excess moisture continues to affect walls, ceilings or other surfaces. Our services include Black Mould Removal, Mould Treatment and Mould Prevention, with contributing damp or condensation considered where relevant.
CONDENSATION CONTROL
Recurring condensation can lead to damp surfaces and provide the moisture needed for mould growth. We provide Condensation Treatment, Ventilation Solutions and Condensation & Mould Prevention to help manage excessive internal moisture.
TIMBER TREATMENT
Persistent moisture can create conditions in which timber becomes vulnerable to fungal decay, while wood-boring insects can cause separate deterioration. Moisture Mend provides Dry Rot Treatment, Wet Rot Treatment for affected timber.
BASEMENT & CELLAR WATERPROOFING
Where below-ground areas are affected by damp or water ingress, an appropriate waterproofing system may be required. Our services include Basement Waterproofing, Cellar Waterproofing and Basement Tanking, selected according to the conditions within the space.
PLASTERING & DAMP REPAIRS
Moisture can leave internal walls damaged even after the underlying problem has been resolved. We provide Damp Plaster Repairs, Plastering & Re-Skimming and Damp Rendering to reinstate affected surfaces following appropriate treatment.
REPOINTING & EXTERNAL DAMP REPAIRS
External masonry defects can allow rainwater to penetrate a property and cause damp internally. Moisture Mend provides Brick Repointing, Stone Repointing and External Wall Repairs where deteriorated external surfaces are contributing to moisture ingress.
LOFT INSULATION & VENTILATION
The condition of a loft can affect heat retention, airflow and moisture levels within the property. Our services include Loft Insulation, Loft Ventilation and Loft Condensation Treatment for roof spaces affected by poor thermal performance or persistent moisture.

DAMP PROOFING WESTERHOPE – FREQUENTLY ASKED QUESTIONS
Find answers to common questions about damp proofing in Westerhope, including rising damp, external moisture, condensation, plaster damage and surveys.
WHAT COULD CAUSE DAMP AROUND THE BOTTOM OF AN INTERNAL WALL?
Moisture around the lower part of a wall can be associated with rising damp, although other causes should be ruled out before treatment begins. A damp survey can help determine whether ground moisture or another problem is responsible.
WHY DOES A DAMP PATCH SOMETIMES GET WORSE DURING WET WEATHER?
Where moisture becomes more noticeable after rain, penetrating damp may need to be considered. Defective external masonry, pointing or other relevant defects can provide routes for rainwater to enter the property.
CAN YOU HELP WITH CONDENSATION AND BLACK MOULD?
Yes. Moisture Mend provides condensation treatment, ventilation solutions, black mould removal and mould prevention. The moisture conditions behind recurring growth can be assessed before the appropriate solution is recommended.
WHAT IF DAMP HAS CAUSED THE PLASTER TO CRUMBLE OR DETERIORATE?
The moisture problem should be addressed before damaged finishes are restored. Moisture Mend can provide damp plaster repairs, rendering and re-skimming following appropriate treatment where required.
DO YOU PROVIDE SURVEYS BEFORE QUOTING FOR DAMP WORK?
Moisture Mend provides specialist damp and moisture surveys where the source or extent of a problem requires investigation. The findings can then be used to determine the appropriate remedial work.
