Defend the integrity of structural timber
Timber is a key structural material for beams, joists, roof rafters and more. Used extensively throughout all building works, it is crucial that structural timber like this is kept dry and infestation-free to ensure it maintains its integrity and continues to support the house or property.
To treat timber, we can employ a range of dampproofing techniques including insecticide treatments for woodworm and fungus infestations, and chemical paste treatments to resolve dry and wet rot.
We assess each property independently and create a solution best fit to your problem
All of our surveyors are qualified and experienced to treat timber quickly and effectively
Our solutions can deter woodworm and defend against damp for years to come
Solutions for any and all timber problems
Whether you suspect your property is suffering from woodworm, rot, or fungus, we at British Waterproofing can help. Preventing damp is key to fixing nearly all timber problems!
Direct water or rising damp causes an exceptionally high moisture content in timber, which in turn, degrades the integrity of the timber and helps nourish woodworm and fungus larvae eating at your wood. By targeting treatments at the damp, we can take care of all your timber problems.

“Took the plaster and render down to brick in the house and damp proofed and re-rendered and plastered. Time will tell if the damp proofing works but as it comes with a 30-year guarantee I am confident. Very friendly and helpful. Definitely recommend.”
