Specialist Damp Proofing in Fallowfield
Specialist damp proofing for Fallowfield homes, student houses and HMOs.
Fallowfield is one of Manchester's busiest student areas, its large Victorian houses along Wilmslow Road, Ladybarn Lane and the streets around Platt Fields packed with shared houses and HMOs. Those big, hard-worked homes are a magnet for condensation and damp, and we treat them regularly from our nearby Chorlton base.
Student lets and family homes alike here are large solid-wall Victorian properties, and the single biggest issue we see is condensation and black mould — the result of lots of people cooking, showering and drying washing indoors in houses with tired ventilation and original windows. Alongside that we treat rising damp where century-old DPCs have failed and penetrating damp through weathered pointing. For landlords we identify the real cause and the most cost-effective fix — usually proper extraction and a PIV unit rather than unnecessary damp-proofing.
