Damp Proofing and Woodworm Treatment in Birmingham

Founded in 1951, Peter Cox has grown considerably over the years and is now recognised as one of the UK’s leaders in damp proofing, basement waterproofing, timber preservation, wall stabilisation and other property preservation techniques.

Operating from a number of branches across the UK, our fully trained surveyors and technicians are local and expertly trained. Our Birmingham property experts have helped many residential homeowners, commercial buildings and historic buildings with preservation techniques.

Our branch located in Bromford is close to the M6 and the city centre. As well as providing damp proofing, we also serve woodworm infestation problems, fungal infections such as dry rot, wet rot and water ingress issues.

As well as Birmingham, the branch covers Worcestershire, Herefordshire, South West Birmingham, Staffordshire, Wolverhampton, Walsall, North Birmingham, Warwickshire, Coventry, South East Birmingham, Milton Keynes, Northants, Dudley, Stourbridge, Halesowen, Cannock and North Warwickshire.

With 178 days of rain per year, keeping the rain water out of your property is an issue affecting properties in Birmingham. Prevention of penetrating damp and condensation can stop structural issues, loss of heat and avert problems like black mould, dry or wet rot and woodworm.

The River Severn Valley has in recent years been prone to flooding, leading to flood protection and damp proofing work being required in flooded areas.

Case studies in the region include woodwork repairs in half-timbered properties, to correct insect activity and wood rot; also structural timber replacement and basement waterproofing in an historic council property.
