What damp proofing does — and doesn’t

Damp proofing is the remedial work once the cause is known: a damp-proof course injected or replaced, tanking or membranes for below-ground walls, or fixing the water source — a gutter, render or flashing — so it stops entering the wall. In Leicester, as elsewhere, the most common “damp” is condensation, which no damp-proof course will fix.

So ask any specialist for the survey findings in writing before agreeing a treatment, and check whether they are CSRT-qualified or PCA members.
