Damp Course Treatments We Offer
At Imperial Roofers Ltd, we use a variety of effective damp proofing methods to suit different problems and property types. Here’s a quick guide to the most common treatments we provide – all designed to protect your home from moisture damage:
✅ Damp Proof Course (DPC) Installation
We install a barrier—either physical or chemical—into your walls to stop moisture rising from the ground. This is one of the most reliable long-term solutions for rising damp.
✅ Chemical Damp Proof Injection
A special water-resistant cream or liquid is injected into the walls to create a protective seal. It’s a quick, cost-effective way to stop rising damp in existing properties.
✅ Damp Proof Membrane (DPM)
A tough plastic or bitumen sheet is fitted under floors or behind walls to stop moisture getting in. This is often used in basements or other areas below ground level.
✅ Internal Waterproofing (Tanking)
We apply a waterproof coating directly to walls and floors, sealing out any moisture. Ideal for basements, cellars, or places where water might penetrate from the outside.
✅ Cavity Wall Drainage Systems
In some cases, we install drainage membranes and channels behind walls to safely carry water away—especially useful in below-ground spaces.
✅ Ventilation Improvements
To reduce condensation damp, we can add air bricks, extractor fans, or other systems to improve airflow and reduce moisture build-up inside your home.
✅ Timber Treatments
If damp has affected your wooden floors, beams or joists, we can treat them to stop woodworm, dry rot, or wet rot from spreading and causing further damage.
