Services and Treatments
What we provide
Damp Proofing
Most people have had some experience with damp in their homes and it’s never pretty.
Damp can damage your home, your internal decoration is affected and the dampness can be smelled throughout the house. Tell tale signs of damp are crumbling plaster, curling wallpaper, flaking paint and rotting skirting boards.
If your damp problem is not dealt with, it can lead to more serious complications further down the line. It is especially dangerous for young children, the elderly and people who have asthma as reported in the news lately.
There are many modern treatments available; one of the most beneficial is to have damp membrane installed using fixings with a decorative finish applied over the top. Other options include tanking slurrys, renders with admixtures and damp proofing paints.
With so many damp proofing methods and products available, it can be confusing when deciding which option is the best for your situation. We at dryseal are here to help so give us a call for the best advice available
Chemical Injection
Installing a chemical damp proof course is simply the injecting of a silicon based compound in the cavity of a wall through a series of small holes drilled along the base of a wall that is suffering from rising damp.
Contrary to common belief, a chemical damp proof course does not create an impenetrable physical barrier. Instead, chemical damp proofing is a method of lining the pores along a stretch of a brick wall with a water repellent resin. The resin lined pores neutralise the attraction of the brick work particles to the water molecules, thus reducing adhesion to a level suitable to the cohesive force of the liquid.
The damp-proof injection method is one of the main methods of treating rising damp in houses. Here at Dryseal we only use BBA approved creams to meet the necessary criteria required
Insulated Renders
Here at Dryseal we offer a full range of different Insulated coloured renders including:
Ewi - Why choose Ewi render?
IMPROVING ENERGY EFFICIENCY AND PREVENTING HEAT LOSS PROVIDING A SIMPLE ENERGY SAVING SOLUTION
Insulating your home is one of the most effective ways to retain heat and reduce your energy bills. This is because many homes, both old and new, are not insulated as well as they could be.
The majority of the heat loss is through your walls making ewi the way to go to improve the functioning of you home
Monochuche render, so, why choose monocouche?
The main reason? Damp proofing! Monocouche can cure penetrating damp.
On a formulation level, the type of cement used in monocouche renders allows for pigmentation to be added which is what gives it a through-coloured appearance and means there’s no need to paint it.
Monocouche has many benefits for the homeowner
- Through-coloured render which is low maintenance, strong and long-lasting
- Can be applied by hand or pumped with a machine, saving time and effort
- One coat application
- Monocouche is a one coat render applied in two passes, finished to a thickness of 15-25mm
- Can be scrape finished for a modern appearance or sprayed roughcast for a traditional look
It’s easy to see why monocouche render has been so popular over the years – it’s a fantastic product. Unlike a traditional sand and cement render, monocouche is single-coat and through-coloured which means it doesn’t need to be painted.
External Coatings
Here at Dryseal we use a unique micro silicone emulsion to stop water penetration. We apply just one coat of dry seal coating directly onto damp surfaces to provide long lasting waterproof protection within hours. It can be used on brickwork as well as render and can also be applied whilst the service is still damp. The solution is clear so will not mark or stain.
Woodworm Treatments
Woodworm is a simpler term for wood-eating larvae. In addition to identifying the type of woodworm, our woodworm treatment will also depends on the extent of the problem, what stage of growth it is in, and various other factors such as moisture content, dry/wet rot and any additional damp problems in the property. This is why our specialists at Dryseal will investigate each case of potential woodworm infestation closely, provide a diagnosis, and select the correct treatment for the job.
The Process
- Firstly, our surveyors will survey your property.
- Once woodworm is indeed confirmed, our specialists will:
- Identify the scale and severity of the woodworm infestation
- Determine an appropriate treatment
- Identify any further repairs required to fix the problem (for example; correcting a damp issue)
- Provide a quotation for the work before proceeding
- On acceptence of the quote, proceed accordingly
Solving Condensation and Mould
Are you experiencing Condensation, Damp and Mould issues in your home?
Are you sick of being told the only solution is open the windows?
Or being asked to buy certain expensive branded mould remover or "special" dampproofing paint? For the problem to just come back within weeks of application, only masking over the underlying issues.
Here at Dryseal Damp Proofing Services Ltd we have the answer to the problem using Positive Input Ventilation (Piv) Units.
How does it work?
Our heated PIV Systems draw fresh air from the outside into a mounted unit in your loft. The fresh air is then filtered and blown through a ceiling diffuser in your hallway. The unit then gently pressurises your home helping dilute and displace the stale moisture air with fresh filtered air. Getting rid of your Condensation, Damp and Mould issues for good.
Other Benefits of PIV?
- Very low running costs
- Energy-efficient
- Quick Installation with minimal disruption
- Helps Asthma Suffers
- Low maintenance
