Damp & timber surveys
A registered member of the Property Care Association (PCA), our team is fully qualified to conduct detailed damp and timber surveys, accurately diagnosing the root cause of any property issues, whether you’re a homeowner or arranging a pre-purchase inspection.
Rising Damp
Rising damp can seriously compromise the structural integrity of your property. At Atlantis, we implement effective damp proof course treatments backed by a company guarantee for long-term protection.
Condensation
Condensation (and its symptoms) is commonly mistaken for rising or penetrating damp by untrained general builders. Our experts can identify the true cause and offer tailored solutions, including better ventilation and moisture control systems, for a healthier space.
Penetrating Damp
If left untreated, penetrating damp can cause serious damage to walls, ceilings, and other structural elements. At Atlantis Property Preservation, we can pinpoint the source of any penetrating damp and recommend effective, long-lasting solutions.
Wet & Dry Rot
Specialists in the detection and treatment of both wet and dry rot, we quickly identify the type of rot and extent of the problem, trace it to its source, and implement an effective treatment to stop it in its tracks, protecting your property from further damage.
Wood Boring Insects
Wood-boring insects thrive in damp and humid areas like lofts, basements, and under floorboards. Our surveyors will identify the root of the insect infestation and recommend the right treatment, with a full written report and clear cost breakdown.
Cavity Wall Ties
Cracks or bulging in your walls could indicate failing or corroded cavity wall ties. Our specialist surveyors can assess your property, spot signs of cavity tie failure, and, where necessary, address the issue by installing a remedial wall tie replacement system.
Plastering
Our professional plastering services, including re-skims, rendering, crack repairs, and Artex covering, can remove original signs of damp following damp treatments, leaving your home with a smooth, fresh finish.
