What is Damp Proofing?

Damp proofing is a process of protecting your property against damp in the ground transmitting up walls, causing unsightly and unhealthy damage to your property. Two reasons why damp proofing maybe necessary:
  • If your property has damp rising from the ground (Rising Damp)
  • it has penetrating damp transmitting through the walls that are constructed below ground (Lateral Damp Penetration)
The two should never be compaired because the only thing they have in common is they have both originated from damp in the ground.

What are the visible signs of Damp?

Damp issues can vary in appearance and severity, so it can be hard to find out exactly what is causing the stains and patches on your walls.
We recommend checking any signs of dampness by a professional, particularly if you notice any of the following:

  • Wet and damaged plaster.
  • Part of wallpaper peeling from the wall.
  • Musty or mouldy smell.
  • Dark mould on the walls and windowsills.
  • Visible black mould growth inside your home.
  • Icy cold rooms.

Sutton is a large town, and the principal town of the eponymous London Borough of Sutton in South London, England. It lies on the lower slopes of the North Downs, and is the administrative headquarters of the Outer London borough. It is 10 miles (16 km) south-south west of Charing Cross, and is one of the thirteen metropolitan centres in the London Plan. The town had a population of 72,528 as of 2011,[2] whereas the wider borough had a population of 204,525.

Sutton has formed part of Greater London since 1965. “Sutton, Surrey” is often used for addresses in the town, Surrey being the former Postal County (and the historic or traditional county) in which it lies. Royal Mail’s Flexible Addressing policy allows this. There is another, much smaller Sutton in Surrey, near Dorking. Sutton mainline railway station is known as “Sutton (Surrey)” by Southern Railway Ltd.
