How Prokil Treats Rising Damp
Are you struggling with damp walls or peeling wallpaper in your property? If left untreated, rising damp can quickly damage your home or business. But with Prokil’s professional rising damp treatment, you can protect your property and enjoy peace of mind. With 50+ years of experience, we treat rising damp in homes and businesses.
Our tailored process ensures rising damp is treated effectively and permanently. Here’s how we help…
Step 1 | Survey and Diagnosis
Our certified surveyors (PCA, CSRT, CSSW) conduct a thorough inspection of your property to determine the extent of the damp problem. We can identify the root cause of the issue using advanced diagnostic tools. From here, we can provide a detailed report that outlines our findings and recommended solutions. For a lasting fix, our team offers moisture control solutions tailored to your property’s unique needs.
Step 2 | Removal of Affected Materials
Damaged materials, including plaster and skirting boards, are carefully removed. This prevents further contamination and is vital for the effectiveness of subsequent treatments.
Step 3 | Damp-Proof Course Installation
We install a state-of-the-art damp-proof course using chemical or physical methods. However, we often add a damp-proof membrane for extra moisture protection and a permanent barrier against rising damp.
Step 4 | Specialist Remedial Plastering
Our team applies damp-resistant plaster to restore your walls to their original condition. This provides a clean and polished finish with long-term protection against damp-related damage. Check out our case studies to see the transformative impact of our rising damp treatment.
