Basement and cellar tanking.
Rooms below ground held dry with a cementitious tanking slurry or a cavity drain membrane. Which one is decided by the water pressure on the walls and by what the room is for: a habitable conversion is detailed differently from dry storage.

DAMP PATCH BASEMENT WALL
Can't recommend Nigel enough! Came to quote for the work and started within a matter of days. He was incredibly friendly and efficient and made sure everything was clean and tidy afterwards. Thanks again!

QUESTIONS
Asked about this every week.
Is the work guaranteed?
All damp work is guaranteed for 30 years, and an insurance-backed option is available. We carry £1 million public liability insurance.
Do you charge for a quote?
Quotes are free. We look at the property, establish the mechanism, and price the repair before anything is booked in.
How long does the work take?
Most single-room damp proofing and replastering jobs are two to four days on site. The drying afterwards takes longer than the work itself, and we will tell you how long to allow for your walls.

CONTACT
Send a photo of the wall.
Quickest route is WhatsApp with a photograph of the affected wall and, if you can, one of the outside face of the same wall. That is often enough for an initial view before a survey is booked.
