Damp specialists for Trafford (M16, M17, M31, M32, M33, M41)
Trafford's housing — victorian terraces in stretford and old trafford, 1930s semis through urmston and davyhulme, modern estates in partington, and industrial units at trafford park. — 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 M16.
Every Trafford 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.
