Identify & Resolve Damp Issues in Your Property
Damp, moisture, and condensation can lead to serious structural damage, poor indoor air quality, and potential health risks. If you’re experiencing persistent damp patches, mould growth, or high humidity levels, a DMC Survey in Swansea can help diagnose the problem and recommend effective solutions.
What is a DMC Survey?
A Damp, Moisture & Condensation (DMC) Survey is a specialist inspection designed to identify the cause of damp-related issues in a property. Unlike a general survey, this inspection focuses specifically on:
- Rising Damp – Moisture traveling up from the ground due to failed damp-proof courses.
- Penetrating Damp – Water ingress from external defects such as faulty roofs, walls, or windows.
- Condensation – High humidity levels leading to mould and damp patches, often caused by poor ventilation.
By using specialist equipment and a detailed inspection process, I provide clear, actionable advice to resolve these issues before they lead to costly repairs.
Why Get a DMC Survey in Swansea?
✔ Protect your property – Damp can weaken walls, floors, and structural elements over time.
✔ Improve indoor air quality – Mould spores and excess moisture contribute to respiratory issues.
✔ Reduce energy costs – Damp homes feel colder, leading to higher heating bills.
✔ Prevent costly repairs – Early detection can save thousands in remedial works.
