🐛 WOODWORM TREATED — JOB COMPLETE

Another woodworm treatment completed by the Damp Stop team.

The affected timber was professionally treated to target the infestation and help protect the property from further damage.

Woodworm can be easy to overlook until the damage becomes more serious. If you’ve spotted small exit holes, fresh dust or signs of weakened timber, it’s worth getting it checked.

**FROM DRY ROT DAMAGE TO FULLY RESTORED**

What a transformation.

This property had extensive dry rot damage, so the affected areas were completely hacked off before we could begin the restoration.

✔️ Damaged timbers repaired
✔️ Timbers sprayed & treated
✔️ Affected areas stripped back
✔️ Specialist replastering upstairs & downstairs
✔️ Full restoration completed

The before and after speaks for itself.

🏠 Buying a home? Don’t skip the survey.

A property might look perfect on the surface, but a professional survey can help uncover issues that aren’t immediately visible — including damp, timber defects and structural concerns.

Finding problems before you buy could save you significant costs further down the line.

Another update from our dry rot project.

The repair work is progressing well. We’ve now:

• Repaired the affected flooring
• Plaster boarded the areas affected by the dry rot
• Prepared the remaining areas for their final finish

The last stage is now specialist replastering in the living room and upstairs bedroom, bringing this major remedial project towards completion.

Another DPC injection and specialist replastering job completed.

The affected area has been treated with a new injected damp proof course before being professionally replastered, helping protect the property from further rising damp and leaving the walls ready for finishing.

A leaking washing machine caused damp to develop within this property, leaving the affected area in need of specialist attention.

We’ve now completed the remedial work, including:

• Specialist replastering to the affected area
• Installation of an external drainage channel to help manage moisture
• Completing remedial floor works

Another example of why identifying the source of damp is just as important as treating the visible damage.

🦠 Mould keeps coming back?

Mould isn’t always just a cleaning problem.

Condensation, penetrating damp, plumbing leaks and other moisture problems can all contribute to mould growth. That’s why identifying the underlying cause is so important.

At Damp Stop, we look beyond the visible signs to help identify what’s causing the problem and recommend the right solution.
