Damp is a problem we see in many older properties throughout the areas we cover, including Ascot, Farnham and the wider Berkshire, Hampshire and Surrey localities. Unsightly and capable of causing serious respiratory issues, dampness in your home is essential to address immediately if you spot it. As experts in all aspects of property maintenance, EJM Home Improvements Ltd is on hand 24/7 to address your failing or lack of damp proofing and restore your home to its original state.
CONTACT USBefore beginning work, we conduct a detailed survey of the property to identify the source of moisture, leaving no room for guesswork.
Our detailed process includes:
Precision Testing
Using a professional damp metre, we map moisture levels across your walls, keeping an eye out for high concentrations and areas where air vent installation is required.
Internal Plumbing
Leaking pipes or trapped condensation can cause major damp issues, which is why we thoroughly check all hidden areas.
Structural Inspections
We check everything, including external elements of your property such as roofs, loft spaces and brickwork to identify the source of damp.
Sub-Floor Investigations
Damp can be right beneath your feet, which is why we take up floor boards to check for rot and rising moisture.
We offer damp proofing to protect against the three main forms of dampness that threaten your property:
Each of these damp problems presents itself in several ways, as outlined below. If you spot any, call us immediately, and we’ll arrange to visit your home at a time that suits you.
EJM Home Improvements quickly addresses issues by clearing damaged areas for plasterboard, timbers, and masonry. We conduct a damp survey across all rooms in your Ascot or Farnham home to assess the spread of damp. As a licensed waste carrier, we also remove and dispose of damaged materials.
With our anti-draught air vent installations and a freshly injected damp-proof course – as part of our professional damp proofing services – you’ll be amazed at how quickly your home will begin to feel new again. And, following a further damp wall treatment with anti-mould paint, along with complete decoration services, you’ll soon forget you even had a damp issue.
