Case study 1: Rising damp treatment in Chislehurst

A homeowner noticed bubbling paint and crumbling plaster along the base of a living room wall. There were clear tide marks and salt deposits, suggesting a long-term moisture issue.

We inspected internal symptoms and checked external ground levels and drainage.
Rising damp was confirmed and a chemical damp proof course was recommended.
Contaminated plaster was removed to the correct height and the wall was re-plastered to specification.
We advised on skirting refit and drying times before redecorating.

Customer feedback:
"Clear advice and excellent workmanship. Everything was explained and the room is finally dry again."

Case study 2: Condensation and mould control in a bedroom

Black mould kept returning behind furniture on an external wall, with a musty smell during winter. The room had limited airflow and the furniture was tight to a cold wall.

We checked for penetrating damp and confirmed condensation was the main cause.
We advised practical airflow changes and improvements to extraction/ventilation.
Mould was treated and guidance provided to prevent recurrence.

Customer feedback:
"Really helpful — the mould has not come back and the room feels much fresher."

FAQs – Damp proofing in Chislehurst

Do you offer free damp surveys in Chislehurst?

For straightforward damp issues we can often provide a free visit and quote. If you need a more detailed investigative survey or a written report (for a purchase or landlord file), we will confirm any fee in advance.

How do you tell the difference between rising damp and condensation?

Rising damp typically affects lower wall areas and can show tide marks and salts. Condensation is often linked to cold surfaces, poor ventilation and mould at high corners or behind furniture. We inspect the symptoms and test moisture levels to confirm the cause.

Do you carry out plastering after damp proofing?

Yes — where required we remove contaminated plaster and re-plaster with the correct specification so walls dry properly and can be redecorated.
