England 03.07.2013 – London Based Specialist Eradicates Rising Damp for the Safety of Homeowners
The problem of rising damp can occur in any property, of any age and occurs for a number of reasons – this is why damp proofing London has become so popular. Penetrating damp is often caused by small breakages in guttering or pipes or even leaks in roofs which allow water from the outside of the home to settle inside while condensation which is not allowed to escape can settle inside the home and cause damp which is both unsightly and can cause a myriad of health problems for the inhabitants.
Damp in homes has been known to contribute towards a large variety of health problems, including (but not limited to) respiratory problems, eye infections, post nasal drip, cough, wheeze, asthma, blocked airways infections, tiredness, and headache.
As a result of these health problems, it’s little wonder that many homeowners panic when faced with damp.
A Positive Solution
The signs of damp are all too clear, from visible patches to the tell-tale smell of damp in the home, and the sensible homeowner will be all too aware of the importance of quickly and effectively ridding themselves of damp once and for all.
Conveniently based to serve the Capital and surrounding areas, London and Home Counties Timber Preservation has been offering specialist help to home and building owners suffering the trouble brought on by damp since their inception in 1976.
In addition to offering surveys and assistance in the event that damp is pre-existing, the company offers measures to combat damp prior to it beginning through Damp Proofing London. Working on the basis that prevention is better than cures, a representative from London and Home Counties Timber Preservation noted; “External walls are most likely to become affected, but internal walls also suffer if there is no effective damp-proof course established. Rising damp often occurs when an existing damp-proof course has failed or become ‘bridged”.
The service offered by the company includes a full survey, discussion with a specialist on the problem, if any, and the potential solutions, and of course the eradication of the issue.
