Target Service: Damp Proofing
Location: Leeds
Results: Following the installation of a new damp course and tanking of walls, the issue of water ingress was resolved, resulting in a completely dry environment on the ground floor.
Company Overview
The project involved Watertight Homes, a company specialised in domestic structural waterproofing services within Leeds. The team is known for their expertise in identifying and addressing damp-related issues in residential properties, focusing on delivering effective and lasting solutions to homeowners.
Problem / Challenge
Watertight Homes was approached to resolve a significant problem: water ingress was affecting the ground floor walls of a residential property. The high ground levels surrounding the property were causing moisture to seep into the walls, resulting in damp issues that posed health risks and structural concerns. The homeowners needed a reliable solution to eliminate dampness and restore their living conditions.
A representative from Watertight Homes noted, “The damp was impacting not just the health of the home but also the comfort of the residents. We needed to act quickly and effectively to resolve the issue.”
Solution
To address the damp problem, Watertight Homes removed the existing wet plaster and installed a new damp course. Following this, they tanked the walls using a 4-metre membrane, which provides a robust barrier against moisture. Plasterboards were then fitted and skimmed to restore the interior aesthetics while enhancing the structural integrity of the walls.
The representative added, “By implementing a comprehensive damp-proofing strategy, we ensured that the homeowners would no longer experience any water ingress, giving them peace of mind moving forward.”
Results
The outcome of the intervention was highly successful. The new damp course and tanked walls effectively eliminated any moisture issues within the property. The homeowners are now enjoying a completely dry ground floor, significantly improving their quality of life.
A satisfied client expressed, “We are thrilled with the work done by Watertight Homes. There’s not a trace of damp anymore, and we can finally feel comfortable in our home.”
