Damp proofing and Timber Treatment

Damp Proofing is purely about replacing or installing a barrier to prevent moisture rising by capillary reaction in a structure. Damp Proof Courses (DPC) are designed to protect internal timbers below and above ground level.

Refurbishment
Cemplas installs damp proof courses that are sympathetic to the structure of the building. This is followed by all the associated work in a domestic environment up to the point of decoration including joinery and plastering. Cemplas begins with a comprehensive survey covering timbers and walls to determine the nature and cause of dampness. Targeted timber treatment is especially relevant to the refurbishment of older buildings and Cemplas use sympathetic treatments with natural formulations.

Fungal spraying
Cemplas follows a strict environmentally-responsible approach to fungal treatment that is centred on detailed surveys. The Cemplas approach is more professional, more sympathetic to fabric of building and more effective because it is controlled by the survey. The company does not advocate wholesale spraying but promotes targeted treatment. By concentrating the effort where it is needed, Cemplas reduces overheads and costs, minimises the exposure of inhabitants to toxic chemicals and reduces the impact of its work on the environment. The treatments are effective and backed by a 30-year guarantee.
