Inspection
Assess moisture patterns, finishes, wall construction, DPC condition and external factors.
Weybridge KT13 rising damp case study showing damaged wall finishes, chemical DPC installation, waterproof rendering and completed replastering by Atruss Preservation.
Call 07984 712 428View Project ImagesThis Weybridge project documents the repair of moisture-damaged internal walls. The initial signs included deterioration at low level, salt contamination and failing decorative finishes. Following investigation, the remedial sequence included preparation of affected masonry, installation of a chemical damp-proof course and wall reinstatement.
Removing salt-contaminated plaster is an important part of many rising damp specifications because salts retained in old finishes can continue to attract moisture. The images show the transition from the original wall condition through DPC treatment and preparation to a clean replastered finish.
Assess moisture patterns, finishes, wall construction, DPC condition and external factors.
Provide access and remove defective or contaminated materials where required.
Install the project-specific damp-proofing or waterproofing system.
Restore walls with a suitable render and plaster specification.
The original images from Weybridge gallery 2 are retained below, now presented with descriptive captions and responsive sizing.
Atruss Preservation provides rising damp investigation, new damp-proof course installation, waterproofing, high-ground-level solutions, salt-resistant rendering, plaster repairs and related preservation work across Weybridge and nearby Surrey.
Every specification should respond to the actual moisture source and construction. This helps avoid inappropriate treatment and ensures associated plaster, timber or external-level defects are addressed.

Moisture-affected plaster can contain salts and may have lost adhesion. Where required by the specification, it is removed so the masonry can be treated and reinstated with a suitable system.
Peeling decoration at low level can be a symptom, but plumbing leaks, penetrating moisture, condensation and bridged damp-proof courses can look similar. The cause should be investigated before treatment.
Yes. Where survey findings show that a remedial DPC is appropriate, Atruss Preservation can install a chemical damp-proof course and complete associated plaster repairs.
