Why Rising Damp Happens in Perth?
Perth’s sandy soils, coastal humidity, and older housing stock make local homes particularly prone to rising damp. Many pre-1980s properties were built without modern damp-proof courses, while newer homes can develop issues when drainage or waterproofing fails over time.

Our Process
We don’t guess — we assess.
Our process is detailed, transparent, and focused on long-term results.
Initial Moisture Assessment
We conduct a professional moisture reading to identify how far damp has spread and what’s causing it.
Wall Preparation
Damaged plaster and salts are carefully removed to expose the affected brickwork.
Damp-Proof Course Injection Treatment
A high-grade damp-proof cream is injected into the wall at the base level. Once cured, it forms a barrier that prevents water from rising through the masonry.
Water Proof Membrane
Application of water proof membrane.
Drying & Restoration
After treatment, allow the walls to cure before re-plastering and/or painting.

We offer honest advice, detailed assessments, and effective treatments designed to permanently stop rising damp, not just cover it up!
