Capital Damp Solutions

Hi, my name is Eddie and I'm a former British Gypsum assessor specialising in independent, honest damp investigations.

I'm a Certified British Gypsum plasterer, having been trained in Ireland by my father, a master plasterer that gained over 50 years experience in the trade.

As a Certified British Gypsum plasterer, I spent 3 years working for them as an assessor, checking and mediating on the work standards and practices of plasterers throughout the UK.

This is what made me realise the amount of substandard work taking place.

The amount of SCAM RISING DAMP jobs I had to mediate on was SHOCKING.

In the VAST MAJORITY of cases, no chemical Damp course injection is needed.

Unscrupulous contractors are conning people in to have a DPC injected where it isn't necessary.

If you get a "diagnosis" of rising damp, please call me, I can almost certainly guarantee you the damp is caused by something else.

We specialise on the common damp issues suffered by the downstairs flats in the WARNER ESTATE in Walthamstow

However, if you do insist, which we do NOT generally recommend, on a new DPC being injected, we can carry this out using the Dry zone from Safeguard method.

We cover ALL aspects of dampness and damp investigations including:

• Rising damp
• Penetrating damp
• Pre-purchase damp assessments
• Condensation
• Mould
• Insulation solutions
• Thermal imaging using an IR camera to pinpoint cold spots
• Endoscopic camera inspection for cavity walls and underfloor issues
• Chimney ventilation issues investigations
• Temperature analysis to pinpoint cold spots
• French drain installation
• Drone roof/chimney/flashing inspection
• Damp meshed membrane systems installed
• Ventilation investigations

We also carry out independent condensation and mould assessments for householders, landlords or tenants.

To reduce your costs, we are happy to let the customer do any prep, or reinstatement works themselves e.g. removing damp plaster or refitting skirting boards where necessary, decorating etc.

I'm semi-retired now so happy to give advice over the phone where necessary, so please feel free to call.

I'm free to take calls between 8am till 8pm, Monday to Friday and between 10am till 6pm on Saturday and Sunday.

Thanks

Eddie
