Is Damp worse in commercial properties?

If damp is identified in a commercial property, then it is important to contact a professional to have a survey completed.

Damp can cause structural damage to the building, unhealthy working conditions and aesthetic issues which can devalue your building.

As you do not generally live in a commercial building then the damp can be identified when it has become a serious issue. The building may be subject to leaks, rainfall, groundwater which will make the structure of the building particularly vulnerable during winter months.

Commercial properties are required to comply with health and safety regulations, damp environments can lead to the growth of mould so instructing a professional damp company to complete the survey is important. Ventilation will be a key factor that our surveyors will inspect ensuring a healthier environment for employees, customers and tenants.

We have worked with schools to complete the works required within school holidays, the retail sector to complete the work outside shop opening hours, estate agents to work with tenants and students availability and listed buildings to work with specific and aesthetic changes.
