Period Property Restoration


At Damp Treat we aim to provide the most appropriate solution for a variety of problems including period property restoration. Specialising as we do in damp control, timber treatments, plastering and rendering means our personnel possess a range of skills both modern and traditional which are required in this type of work. In fact we have individuals who are particularly interested in this type of work and enjoy the challenges it can bring.

Our services include:

  • Lath replacement and repair
  • Lime plastering / rendering
  • Lime washes / paints
  • Timber treatments
  • Application of preformed mouldings and cornices
  • Damp treatment

 

We also have many contacts in other relevant trades e.g joiners who can reproduce wooden window designs allowing us to project manage a job from start to finish if required.

A wide variety of materials such as different mixes of lime renders, different woods used for laths, can be found in period property. Use of modern materials can cause damage to buildings built without damp courses and with softer brick or rubble stone. Damp Treat will recommend and estimate for the right materials for individual situations.   Where properties are listed we will work closely with local authority conservation officers to find solutions acceptable to all concerned.
