Report
At South East Timber and Damp we have different survey packages, depending upon whether you need a full written timber and damp report for a home purchase survey or want a comprehensive investigation with just an estimate to give you the information you need to make the best decision on how to protect your property.
Damp Proofing
Report
Damp proofing is the generic term used to describe the processes and treatments implemented to fix or prevent the damp problems that occur within a property. The cost of damp in a property can run to thousands of pounds, so acting quickly to identify the issue and solve the problem is critical. It pays to be vigilant, and there are often cost-effective solutions you can implement.
Rising Damp
Report
Not overly scientific, but this is exactly what it is. Water can encroach on your building from the ground for a variety of reasons, and it will attack your brickwork, climbing the walls via the porous nature of the components. It will impact on the various surfaces it comes into contact with including woodwork, as well as bricks and mortar.
Penetrating Damp
Report
Penetrating damp is known technically as 'water ingress'; it refers to any moisture seeping into the fabric of a building from routes other than the ground (see Rising Damp). Penetrating damp can cause structural and cosmetic damage to a building, as well as potentially creating health complications for the inhabitants if left untreated for a prolonged time.
Timber Treatment
Report
Known as Serpula Lacrymans, dry rot is a wood destroying fungus which feeds on moisture - typically in poorly ventilated buildings or water exposed timbers from damaged gutters and leaky pipes. Once fungus spores germinate, fine strands of fungal growth sprout and spread, devouring wood. And because dry rot even penetrates mortar, plaster and concrete, it can cause widespread and often unseen damage.
