Damp Proofing & Property Care in Windsor
Windsor contains prestigious Georgian, Victorian, and Edwardian architecture, alongside historic riverside homes near the Thames. High water tables and historic solid brick/stone masonry demand sympathetic, non-destructive damp treatments and breathable salt-barrier renders.
Windsor and Eton have a large number of period and listed buildings, and many are in conservation areas. Solid walls need to be able to breathe, so breathable lime-based plasters and renders are often the right choice. If a building is listed, work may need consent from the local authority.
Homes near the Thames can have high groundwater, and the Environment Agency flood map is a useful check before choosing a waterproofing system. For cellars and lower ground floors, the survey looks at drainage, ventilation and whether a pump system is needed.
