Rising Damp Solutions
At Heywood Structural Waterproofing Services, we specialise in diagnosing and treating rising damp. Rising damp occurs when moisture from the ground is drawn up into the walls of a building, causing visible damage like peeling paint, damp patches, and the formation of salts on the walls. If left untreated, rising damp can weaken the structure of your building and lead to costly repairs.
Our rising damp treatment process includes:
Initial site visits and investigations
Installation of chemical or physical damp proofing courses
Wall repairs and redecoration
Preventative measures to stop future rising damp
Comprehensive guarantees on works undertaken
We use cutting-edge damp proofing techniques to ensure your property is safeguarded against rising damp. Whether you’re a homeowner, landlord, or commercial property owner, our team at Heywood Structural Waterproofing Services has the experience and expertise to deliver reliable rising damp solutions that last.

What are the signs of rising damp in my home?Look for damp patches, peeling paint, salt stains, and a musty smell at the base of walls. We conduct a thorough inspection to confirm rising damp and recommend appropriate treatment.
How does rising damp differ from other types of dampness?Rising damp comes from groundwater moving up through the walls, unlike condensation or leaks. We treat rising damp with a damp-proof course to prevent moisture from rising through the walls.

Can rising damp cause structural damage to my home?Yes, if left untreated, rising damp can weaken walls and cause significant damage. We address rising damp promptly to protect your home’s structural integrity.
How long does it take to repair rising damp?The process can take a few weeks, depending on the extent of the damage. We aim for efficient service while ensuring all repairs are completed to a high standard.
