Location: Goosnargh, Lancashire Client: Domestic Completed: August 2025
The team at Lancashire Damp Proofing has been busy carrying out essential works at a client’s property in Goosnargh, Lancashire. During our initial inspection, our qualified surveyor detected higher than average moisture meter readings, which were identified as being caused by a failed damp proof course combined with salt contamination.
Our Approach to Damp Proofing
To rectify the issue and ensure the property remains dry for years to come, our team of highly skilled operatives followed a strict remediation process:
- Removal of Defective Plasterwork: We began by stripping back all affected plaster to remove the salt-contaminated materials and expose the substrate.
- Membrane Installation: Lancashire Damp Proofing then applied a specialist polypropylene studded membrane. This creates a robust barrier that prevents moisture from passing from the wall structure into the internal finishes.
- Plastering and Finishing: Once the membrane was secure, the team installed plasterboard on adhesive dabs and applied a professional skim finish, leaving the walls smooth and ready for decoration.
Commitment to Quality and Cleanliness
Following the completion of the works, our team ensured the property was left clean and tidy for our client. We understand the stress of building work, so we strive to minimise disruption and leave your home in excellent condition.
