What a lovely sunny day to be carrying out a survey! ☀️
Today we had the pleasure of visiting a beautiful Grade II listed church to assess ongoing issues with penetrating damp – a common problem in older buildings where water seeps through the external walls due to damaged masonry, failed pointing, or porous brickwork. 🤔
Penetrating damp can cause significant harm over time, leading to plaster deterioration, timber decay, and even structural concerns if left untreated.
At Shield Preservation, we take a careful and conservation-minded approach to treating penetrating damp. Our process typically includes identifying the source of moisture, recommending appropriate repairs such as repointing with breathable lime mortar, improving rainwater goods, and applying sympathetic protective treatments where needed – all tailored to the needs of historic fabric.
We’re pleased to confirm that our detailed report – outlining our observations and recommendations – will be with our client shortly.
If you have a building that’s showing signs of damp or simply needs some tlc, we’d love to help. Get in touch with us today!
