All of our investigations are full and thorough.

We also conduct remote humidity monitoring to gain extensive data of the property that can be aligned to the reported issue.

Case Study

One of our most interesting case studies which reflects the importance of a thorough investigation prior to treatment. Our team were asked to examine a damp issue in well-decorated living room walls. This issue had already been investigated before our attendance the year before. Structural work had even been undertaken including floor uplift, forced drying, excavated drainage run to the exterior and redecoration. This still did not resolve the issue.

Our Damp Specialists Bristol

Our Cornerstone team were asked to conduct a comprehensive investigation on the damp spot which returned in the lounge. We work in accordance with our embedded expert process in order to finally find out the case for this issue.

We undertook a complete survey encompassing all possible non-invasive measures. Our team found no issue in the building. There was no problem with any installed rain and wastewater elements that could be contributing to the localised damp area.

There was a lot of evidence of staining on the carpet and underlay, These where closely inspected and it was discovered that the staining was urine related.

After more discussion with the homeowner, it was discovered that their cat was actually urinating on the area.

Do you have a problem with Damp in Bristol?

Standard household activities like cooking, showering and drying clothes are all responsible for creating high levels of moisture in your property. Condensation occurs when moist air comes into contact with a cold surface. The air can’t hold the same amount of moisture, so is released onto the surface leaving it wet.

Mould needs a food source. This can be common household materials like wallpaper, plasterboard, paint, some carpets, wood fabrics and other organic materials.

Mould is common in dark places like behind wardrobes. It doesn’t necessarily need darkness to grow. It takes between 4-12 hours to begin the germination process and after this, it can take time for the mould to actually develop and create spores. It can take several days or 2 weeks to fully mature, depending on the mould type. Evidence of mould can include an unpleasant smell and black spores. Mould contains a variety of different health risks. If you need more information or a quote, please don’t hesitate to get in contact with our damp specialists in Bristol today.
