Moody Building Contracts are experts in finding the causes of damp in a property and then rectifying it as quickly and efficiently as possible.

How do I know if I have Damp?

  • Here are a few tell-tale signs:
  • tidemarks on your walls
  • peeling wallpaper
  • damp patches and water stains
  • rotting skirting boards

will all indicate rising damp. Does this sound like your home?  We have been helping our customers solve their damp problems for over 35 years. 

Damp can affect all areas of your home

The areas of your home that can succumb to or let in damp are almost limitless. Stone, brick, plaster and timber are all porous materials through which water can penetrate, meaning that it is vital all new homes are given a thorough damp course (all new buildings in the UK will have a physical damp proof membrane installed at 150 mm up from external ground level.)  If you own an older property that doesn’t have an extensive damp course then don’t despair: Rising Damp, Penetrating Damp, Condensation, no matter how bad your damp problem, we can help.
