How we do it
Rising Damp Treatment in Lymington: the process

Confirm the cause
We check it is rising damp and not condensation or a penetrating leak.
Step 02
Install the DPC
A new chemical damp-proof course is injected along the base of the wall.
Step 03
Strip contaminated plaster
Salt-laden plaster is removed so it cannot spoil the new finish.

Replaster
Walls are re-rendered with a salt-resistant system, ready to dry and decorate.
