Damp proofing and plastering in Batley
Rising damp, penetrating damp, condensation and mould treated in Batley, plus plastering and skimming. Free surveys before anything is quoted, and fixed prices in writing.
Four metres of rising damp, and a re-skim over artex
A smaller job in a hallway and stairwell. The affected section of wall was treated for rising damp at the source.
The surrounding walls were then re-skimmed straight over the existing artex, which left a flat, smooth finish ready to decorate without scraping the old texture off.
We take on the same work in Batley. There is more on our artex covering page, and photos from more jobs in our projects.

From your first call to a finished wall
The same steps on every job, wherever you are.
Tell us what you have noticed
Call, send a WhatsApp message or fill in the form. We come back within one working day and arrange a survey at a time that suits you.
A free survey, and a straight answer
We test the walls with a damp meter, find what is actually causing the problem and explain it in plain English. If nothing needs doing, we say so.
A fixed price in writing
No hourly rates that creep. If a wall turns out to need more once we start, we explain it and agree it with you first.
We do not publish set prices, because the cause and the size of the job decide them. Each service page explains what moves the price: see rising damp treatment or re-plastering. The survey costs nothing either way.
