Condensation in Newcastle Upon Tyne

Condensation is the most common form of all the damp issues and is caused from day to day activities being carried out by any homeowner. Condensation is the form of built up warm moisture inside of the property then the air will cool down and will come into contact with a cold surface.

This form of damp is a seasonal problem and is largely present during the months of October to April where ventilation is at its lowest. Doors and windows tend to remain closed during these months which means the moisture-laden air can’t escape the property therefore causing condensation.

Rising Damp in Newcastle Upon Tyne

Rising damp is the procedure of moisture rising up from the ground up the building. Rising damp can occur when your property has no damp proofing in place such as a damp proof course.

This is more of a problem in older housing where there was damp protection put in place unlike modern houses now where damp proofing always put in place. There are other forms of damp treatment that can put in place to stop against rising damp such as Electro Osmosis and The DryTek Damp Proofing System.

Penetrating Damp in Newcastle Upon Tyne

Penetrating damp is the process of the water penetrating from the outside into the inside of the property. The cause of penetrating damp is poor maintenance of the building such as damaged guttering. Older properties are more at risk than newer properties due to the fact that cavity wall ties are installed in modern properties.

The amount of damage caused by penetrating damp can vary dependent on the amount of moisture that has penetrated through the building. Penetrating damp can lead to further damage of wood rot which can cause severe damage to your property.

Timberwise Carrying Out a Damp Survey in Newcastle

To ensure your damp problem at your Newcastle property is sorted out correctly, having a damp survey is the best course of action. A highly qualified surveyor will provide a full inspection of both the inside and outside areas of the property.

 

This will entail assessing if there is any existing damp treatment already in place and investigate the cause of the damp problem. Once the inspection has been completed by the damp specialist then the report will be sent out to the customer detailing what treatments will be needed to get rid of the issue.

Woodworm Treatments in Newcastle

Woodworm causes significant damage to timber with the most common beetle being the Common Furniture Beetle. The damage caused by wood boring insects is dependent on the type of beetle amongst other factors.

The most important part of treating woodworm in the property is knowing what type of woodworm is present. A woodworm survey by Timberwise will identify the woodworm and advise of the best course of treatment to rectify the situation.
