J. A. Pell & Son & partner trades was back in Wanstead for a long standing client. A full external property redecoration including damp proofing works carried out on the front elevation.
The client had been experiencing damp issues in the front room of the property since it’s purchase a few years ago. Upon investigation it would appear the driveway had been installed above the existing damp proof course, bridging the damp proof course and causing damp to rise up the wall both internally and externally.
The driveway was removed where needed solving the bridging issue. The rendering was then hacked off and left off for the wall to dry over the course of several weeks. The wall was drilled and injected to rule out any further issues. We then reinstated the rending and made good inside the property. Certificate of guarantee issued and the client left with zero future damp issues.
We then finished up with a full external redecoration of the property using the Dulux external weathershield paint system.
