Specialist Damp Proofingin Harrow

We work for homeowners dealing with a damp wall they do not understand, buyers and sellers whose surveys have flagged damp and stalled a sale, landlords and letting agents who need a defect diagnosed properly, and owners bringing a cellar, garage or neglected room back into use.

The specialism is damp: rising damp and failed damp proof courses, penetrating damp through walls, render and roof-level defects, structural waterproofing and tanking of below-ground space, and the salt-retardant replastering that makes the treatment hold. Around that sits the building work damp jobs actually need: repointing, rendering, brick replacement, brick stitching, plastering and making good.

Being one business that does both matters more than it sounds. A large share of damp is caused by something outside the wall, and a contractor who can only inject a damp proof course will treat the symptom and leave the cause. We fix the cause and repair the damage as a single job, with one person accountable for it.

The work is concentrated in London, West London, Middlesex and Brent, our home ground from Harrow, and extends to Watford, Slough, Buckinghamshire, High Wycombe and Surrey. That depth in one region means we see the same building types repeatedly: Victorian solid-wall terraces, interwar cavity semis, converted flats, cellars and period property in the Chilterns.

You deal with Tom Charge, Owner. The survey, the explanation, the price and the accountability come from the same place.
