π§ Damp problems don't disappear with a coat of paint.
The team have recently been working at a property in Prestwich, Manchester, where the walls and chimney breast have been prepared and tanked as part of a professional damp proofing system.
On projects like this, the process often involves:
π§± Removing affected plaster
π§ Preparing the masonry
πͺ£ Applying specialist tanking systems
π Creating a dry foundation for reinstatement
Whether the issue has been caused by penetrating damp, historic moisture ingress or salt contamination, the key is always identifying the cause and installing the correct solution.
It's great to see another Manchester property moving one step closer to being warm, dry and comfortable.
