Services
Listed below are the full range of services provided by
FOREST DAMPBUSTERS.
Damp-proofing (rising damp)
Older properties in the Forest of Dean are often built of
stone and did not have a damp-proof course installed at the
time of construction and this can lead to rising damp
internally.
We can install a range of damp-proof courses such as
siliconate aqueous or injection cream d.p.c’s or apply
chemical free treatments such as electro-osmosis systems,
physical damp-proof courses or excavate French Drains.
Woodworm, Wet Rot and Dry Rot Treatment
Many older properties in the Forest of Dean are affected by
woodworm, wet rot or dry rot. But don’t worry too much as
these are not often as serious as some companies lead you to
believe and these problems can be solved fairly easily
without tearing your house down.
For common sense advice on how to treat woodworm, wet rot or
dry rot then please call us on 01594 837300.
All woodworm, wet rot and dry rot treatments carried out by
Forest Dampbusters comes with a 20 year guarantee
Condensation
Condensation occurs more often nowadays as houses are often
fitted with double-glazing, insulation which prevents moist
air from escaping. Fireplaces are also not used as before
and these had the effect of drawing moisture up the flue and
venting it outside. The result of condensation is usually
mould on walls and water running down windows etc. It can
easily be alleviated by the installation of special vents or
fans. In some cases we have to re-plaster walls with dual
purpose plasters which treat dampness and reduce
condensation at the same time.
Specialist Surveys for Mortgages, Equity Release
Building Society surveys often refer to dampness and timber
decay in order to avoid professional negligence claims and
we can provide specialist damp and timbers surveys which
will satisfy your lender and usually save you thousands of
pounds by avoiding unnecessary work. For details ring 07736
631527 or e-mail

Waterproof plastering and tanking
Many Forest properties are built in hilly areas and often
some of the walls are earth retaining which means that these
are subject to lateral damp penetration. Forest Dampbusters
have over 25 years experience of dealing with this type of
problem and we can install physical damp-proof membranes
internally, excavate high ground levels and fit drainage
membranes externally and also renew plaster internally with
specialist waterproof renders such as Sika.
Property Renovation & Maintenance
The correct maintenance and repair of buildings is essential
and can spending money on routine jobs such as cleaning
gutters, drains and cleaning roofs etc can often save
thousands by preventing damp ingress internally which can
cause damage to plaster and timbers butting onto damp walls.
Call us on 01594 837300 for all Property Renovation and
Maintenance jobs.
