Damp Proofing jobs in Basildon, Essex

i.d damp problem and remedy

  • Location: Benfleet
  • Hired: JW Surveys
  • Trade: Damp Proofing
Job Description

Hi,
We have 2 single storey extensions built at different times, sitting side by side at the back of our house. The floor is concreted. Our garden slopes from back to front, roughly 3ft.
About 2 months ago, while decorating, I noticed the paint blistering either side on the adjoining walls, ( 8ft long of blistering) just above the skirting. I have now found blistered paint on a rear wall( only a small patch).
I assume the damp is coming from underneath the extensions, from water running down the slope?
Please help as we are worried this is going to be very expensive to fix.

Interior wall is wet whenever it rains

  • Location: Wickford
  • Hired: tyler roofing services
  • Trade: Damp Proofing
Job Description

Whenever it rains, one of our interior walls is damp / wet. Having inspected the roof, we have a hole in one of our tiles (maybe one square inch in size) so we suspect water is simply getting in thru this hole and running down.

The tile is in the final row at the top of our roof and seemingly accessible from the bedroom window. Hoping it'll be as simple as replacing this one tile and there will be no need to remove all of them. It'd be good to get some reassurance of course that this damaged tile is indeed the likely cause of our problem - ideally we're looking for someone with a good all round knowledge of this sort of problem (as opposed to someone who can change a tile)

Look forward to hearing from you. We're obviously looking to get this sorted as soon as possible.

Regards
Pete
