South Africa’s diverse climate can wreak havoc on properties—especially when it comes to moisture. From rising damp to penetrating damp, these hidden issues can weaken your structure and ruin your finishes. That’s why investing in professional damp proofing is not only important—it’s essential.
What Is Damp Proofing?
Damp proofing is the process of treating and protecting walls and foundations from moisture ingress. Whether it’s through chemical damp courses, tanking, or waterproof coatings, the goal is to prevent damage before it happens.
Common Signs of Damp
- Peeling paint or wallpaper
- Mould or mildew growth
- A musty smell indoors
- Crumbling plaster or bubbling walls
Why Damp Is Dangerous
Beyond aesthetics, damp compromises structural integrity. Left untreated, it can lead to timber rot, respiratory health issues, and significant repair costs.
