Warrington has a temperate maratime climate but rainfall is spread fairly evenly throughout the year, so any property with cracks in the wall or faulty water managment can be at risk of penetrating damp or rising damp problems. Black mould and concensation in poorly ventilated buildings is also common in the area.

This variety of damp issues can be a problem for Warrington's homeowners when it comes to identifying the source of damp in their property.

If you see any of the signs below we would recommend calling one of our qualified and accredited surveyors to determine the source of your damp problem and recommend the best damp proofing solution:

This report will outline proposals on how to solve the ventilation issues in your property. If necessary, our Warrington team can install an air quality monitoring system, to identify condensation hot spots around the home.
