At Quaypoint Plastering and Damproofing, we can deal with rising damp on walls which is
often caused by ground water moving up through a wall. If the Damp Proof course is missing
or ineffective, or when the level outside your home is higher than the Course, water can rise
up the wall causing all sorts of problems. We are happy to advise on the right sort of
treatment for any problems you may be experiencing, so if your Damp Proofing in Poole,
isn’t working effectively, we can recommend a number of solutions to remedy the situation,
we can drill holes in your wall and inject a liquid solution but there may be alternatives.
Damproofing is an important part of home maintenance in Poole, and it’s essential that you
ensure your property is properly protected. Damp proofing involves a range of different
preventative measures to help protect the brickwork and mortar of your building from water
damage, as well as to prevent moisture getting inside the walls and ceilings.
The most common type of damp proofing used in Poole is cavity wall insulation. Cavity wall
insulation involves injecting a special foam into the internal walls of your property, which
then creates a barrier to help stop moisture from entering the house. This helps keep both
interior and exterior walls dry and prevents any issues with water seepage or mould growth.
Another popular form of damp proofing in Poole is tanking or ‘tanking up’ of the exterior
walls, usually in older properties where there is no existing cavity between the inner and
outer layers. Tankering involves coating the external walls with a waterproof substance that
allows moisture to drain away without entering the interior walls; this can be done either
internally or externally depending on your specific needs.
A third option for damp proofing in Poole is using a damp-proof membrane (DPM). A DPM
consists of a sheet-like material that is applied to the inner surface of exterior walls; it acts as
a barrier against moisture penetration and helps protect against water damage. As with
tankering, this solution works best if applied internally to ensure maximum protection against
dampness.
Finally, another important element of waterproofing homes in Poole is using chemical
treatments such as silanes or siloxanes which are designed to penetrate concrete or masonry
surfaces preventing them from absorbing moisture from rainwater or ground water sources.
These treatments also act as a sealant against future damage, protecting building materials for
years afterward.
In summary, there are various solutions available when it comes to damproofing properties in
Poole; these include cavity wall insulation, tankering up external walls, installing damp-proof
membranes and applying chemical treatments such as silanes or siloxanes for additional
protection against moisture penetration. It’s recommended that you consult with experts on
which option would best suit your specific needs before deciding on any one solution; they
can also offer advice on how best to maintain each type over time to ensure ongoing
protection against water damage. So why not call us today for a free survey and quotation.

We would just like to say, never seen plastering like it. Great to have tradesmen.
Another local Woodworm company as you know told us we had an active infestation of wood boring beetles. Due to your honesty we know there are none, which has taken our worry away and as a result saving us a lot money.
Danny's work is simply outstanding and I cannot thank him more for doing a 1st rate job. He arrived as planned, got straight to work and worked like a Trojan throughout the day. He covered everything with dust sheets, ensured any mess was minimised and cleaned any spills quickly. When Danny had finished he made sure that I was happy with his work, explained what would happen with the drying plaster and advice on painting. Two days later the plaster is completely dry and I cannot believe how smooth the walls are of my Victorian bedroom. In summary, an outstanding plasterer and simply the best!
Outstanding work. The damp-proofing job was very well priced and completed promptly. Definitely recommended.
Fantastic and professional- would recommend to friends and family.
