Damp Solutions in Poole, Dorset

Damp penetration is a common issue that can severely impact the structural integrity and appearance of your property. Left unchecked, it can lead to problems such as internal dampness, mold growth, and even structural damage.

Our Damp Solutions Include

Cavity Clearance – Obstructions in wall cavities, including debris or outdated cavity wall insulation, can trap moisture and contribute to damp issues. Our cavity clearance service ensures that all blockages are removed, allowing the cavity to function correctly as a moisture barrier.

Repointing of Brickwork – Damaged or deteriorating mortar joints allow water to penetrate the brickwork. We specialise in repointing, replacing old mortar with fresh, high-quality material to restore the strength and appearance of your walls. This not only improves the aesthetics but also prevents water ingress.

Wall Tie Replacement – Damp penetration can cause wall ties to corrode, leading to further damage such as cracks in the brickwork. We provide expert wall tie replacement services, removing rusted ties and installing new, durable ones to restore stability and prevent structural issues.

Masonry Protection and Sealants – Wind-driven rain can penetrate exposed or unprotected brick walls, seeping through the masonry and causing dampness on the inner walls. After clearing cavities and repointing brickwork, we apply high-quality masonry sealants to create a protective barrier against moisture. This not only stops future damp problems but also extends the lifespan of your brickwork.

Understanding the Causes of Damp

Damp penetration is often caused by moisture bridging across cavity obstructions or faulty wall ties, allowing water to seep into the inner skin of the walls. Wind-driven rain, especially in exposed areas, can exacerbate the problem. Over time, this leads to wall tie corrosion, cracks, and internal dampness. If not addressed, these issues can require costly repairs.

Our Comprehensive Approach

At Davies Pointing Services, we tackle damp issues from all angles. We will empty your wall cavities, replace corroded wall ties, and repoint brickwork to ensure that your property is as good as new. To prevent future problems, we finish the process with the application of a robust masonry sealant, creating a waterproof barrier that protects against moisture infiltration for years to come.

Had numerous people around to look at issues with the gable end of my property and lots of ideas and hefty price tags suggested. When Trevor came round he was very clear about the issues and what he felt needed to happen. He was clear about the cost and although not the cheapest he gave a very open approach throughout our communication. He was very good at texting, emailing and answering calls and no questions seemed to be too much trouble. The work was completed recently and looks fantastic. They even did the extra bits I asked for whilst they were on sight. It's early days but I feel confident that we will be so happy with the work that we will be back to ask Trevor to do the other parts of the house.

As the stars already show - We couldn't be more pleased. Our little natural stone cottage, has had a complete face lift and looks totally beautiful. Perfect pointing, a great team of men, and the surrounding area was made clean once the works were complete. Highly recommended, from a very happy customer.
