Damp specialists for Gorton (M18)
Gorton's housing — victorian terraces, regeneration housing and inner-east community premises. — throws up the full range of damp problems. We see rising damp through failed DPCs in older terraces, penetrating damp on solid-brick gable walls, and condensation/mold in poorly ventilated bathrooms and kitchens across M18.
Every Gorton damp job starts with a free on-site survey and moisture meter readings. We diagnose which of the three damp types you actually have, treat the cause — chemical DPC, tanking, ventilation or external repairs — then replaster with a salt-resistant render and skim system. One crew, one quote, written guarantee.
