    Hi, I’m Jayden; I’m friendly, polite and punctual and stride in hard work and dedication to get all work done in a fast yet high standard manner. My previous role was working for capco in Covent Garden taking on both domestic and commercial property. Throughout I completed various types of jobs big and small from changing toilets to full rip-outs and refurbishing. I’m currently working under housing associations such as L&Q, Peabody and Notting Hill Genesis taking on the role of reactive maintenance. Throughout this job customer service is key. I complete a minimum of 60 properties per month, majority of the times as a solo operative. Thank you for taking the time to get to know me :)

    Hi, Just a few brief lines to give you some idea of our company history, strengths, capabilities,and of course to explain the reasons behind our appearing on your list of artisans with very little feedback ,which ,of course, is your only realistic method of judging just who you may be welcoming into your home to carry out any works you may be in need of completion. First and foremost we are an English family company of building specialists,who now also speak reasonably comprehensible French,consisting primarily of a father ,me, and two sons, both of whom are qualified tradesmen in their own right ,one a plasterer/plumber,qualified to NVQ level 3 ,which includes fibrous compounds and lime rendering,and the younger son ,who holds similarly rated qualifications in both bricklaying and painting and decorating, For my own part there are no academic qualifications whatsoever.Put simply, I was too busy working as a bathroom / kitchen ,design / installation engineer ,and putting two sons through college to be able to worry ,overly much ,about academia,but to counteract that there is a lifetime of experience,confidently tackling and successfully completing ,almost every type of building/maintenance problem imaginable,We are, all three ,extremely capable multi trade builders with a wealth of individual /combined experience,and have recently returned from the very successful , year long, restoration,completed on behalf of a very famous Musician/Singer,who insisted on plastering of English quality as opposed to French, of a large Chateau in the Loire Valley region <Saumur>of France which had previously suffered extensive fire and water associated damage throughout. Prior to this we were operating in England as Loadsaroom loft conversion co.and although this indicates a company specializing in loft conversions,of which we completed a great many on behalf of an equal amount of extremely satisfied clients, in actual fact the majority of our work was largely consistent of refurbishment/restoration,and in particular type 2 listed buildings ,where quality of finish,and eye pleasing attention to detail are an absolute essential element and fundamental requirement. We are now available for work of any kind within the building industry, preferably in England , but distance doesn't present too many insurmountable difficulties,and are prepared to work either individually or as a team, If you are taking the trouble to read this brief write up I can only imagine that you have found the initial quote,for whatever work you may require one,satisfyingly competitive,and look forward to hearing your full requirements in the near future . All the best for now and many thanks for taking the time to have a read of this. Barry

Average cost of damp proofing in Essex

The average cost for damp proofing in Essex can range anywhere from £1,000 - £5,000, depending on the property size, type, and age, the type of damp you have, the size of the affected area, and any additional work required like replastering or repainting.

To break down the cost further, there are three main types of damp, each with different treatment approaches and costs: Condensation damp treatment cost: £150–£400 per room

Usually caused by poor ventilation or humidity. Treatment may include improving airflow, installing vents, or applying anti-condensation paint.

Penetrating damp treatment options costs: £350–£1,000 per wall

Caused by water ingress through walls, roofs, or gutters. To combat penetrating damp, a professional can fix leaks, apply waterproof coatings, or repair brickwork and pointing.

Rising damp solutions costs: £500–£2,000+ per wall

The most complex and costly to fix, rising damp occurs when moisture travels up through walls from the ground. Treatment often involves installing a damp proof course, replastering, and redecorating.

You can find more information on budgeting for your project with our guide on the cost of damp proofing.

MyBuilder Tip: Replastering and repainting affected walls is often one of the most costly parts of the damp treatment process, so getting a detailed quote is essential.

Questions to ask damp specialists in Essex

You want to be sure that you are hiring a damp proofing contractor in Essex with the right experience, skills, and understanding of your property and job requirements.

Here are some key questions to ask damp proofers that should guide your final choice:

What qualifications do you have?

Check for recognised certifications such as CSRT (Certified Surveyor in Remedial Treatment) or CSSW (Certificate in Structural Waterproofing). Qualifications show the tradesperson has the proper training to diagnose and treat damp effectively.

Are you a member of any professional bodies?

Membership in professional organisations like the Property Care Association (PCA) indicates the Essex damp specialist adheres to industry standards and best practices.

Are you insured, and do you offer a warranty?

Insurance protects you against accidents or damage during the work, while a warranty shows confidence in the longevity of the treatment.

What treatment do you recommend, and why?

Different damp types require different solutions, so ask the damp specialist in Essex to explain their recommended approach and why it’s the best option for your home.

Is the work compliant with building regulations?

For certain treatments, like tanking or major structural repairs, ensure the Essex damp proofing contractor will follow all relevant regulations and can provide certification if needed.

What is included in your quote?

Clarify what the quote encompasses, with typical services including a site survey, a written report, labour, materials, and any replastering or repainting, so there are no surprises later.

How long will the job take to complete?

Ask for a realistic timeline based on the type of damp, the size of the affected area, and any additional work like plastering or painting. This helps you plan around the disruption.

FAQs: Frequently asked questions when looking for local damp specialists in Essex

How long does a damp specialist in Essex take to complete damp treatment?

The timeline of your damp treatment depends entirely on the service you require. Small jobs like treating condensation or installing ventilation can take a day or two, while rising damp treatments may take several days or weeks depending on wall size and replastering requirements.

Will I need to leave my home while a damp proofer in Essex carries out damp treatment?

Many treatments allow you to remain in your home, but for major works such as treating rising damp or tanking, temporary relocation may be recommended to minimise disruption.

How long will a damp proofing treatment carried out by a damp proofer in Essex last?

Professional treatments can last 10–15 years or more, depending on the property and the cause of the damp. Regular maintenance and monitoring will help to extend your damp proofing’s lifespan.

If I hire a damp proofer, can the damp proofing work increase my Essex property value?

Yes, addressing damp improves structural integrity, prevents future damage, and reassures potential buyers, which can positively impact your Essex home’s market value.
