Builder to look at a damp issue in Barry Road East Dulwich

Hi There,


I am looking for a recommendation of someone who can come and take a look at a damp issue in my spare room on Barry Road. This is a first floor flat. This appeared after 2 days of solid rain this weekend and considering I moved into the flat 2 weeks ago having bought it back in the summer this is just my luck..


The spare room is a kitchen conversion and upon external inspection of the side wall it appears that the damp patch coincides with where the old ventilation from the kitchen is. I therefore do not think it is a brick issue but rather a sealant issue. However, I am not a professional and would like someone to come and take a look.


I have attached some photos below.


Please let me know if you or you know someone who would be able to come and take a look.


Thanks

Richard

I'm currently using this company, who are based in Croydon: http://londondampsolutions.co.uk/


I should stress that the actual work is scheduled for next month, but they did a pre-purchase damp survey for me and put together a comprehensive report/quote. I've been quite impressed so far.

Hi Richard - yes I had to pay for the report/quote, but obviously my case is different to yours - I didn't own the house at the time and wanted a complete pre-purchase damp survey. Very much doubt they'd charge just for a quote in your case!

    • If you’ve got four quid spare, go and try one. Myself, I like the mozzarella and spinach, but there’s no accounting.
    • More of a Steak Bake kinda thing, then.
    • You might want to try the Peckham Facebook community group. I am located in East Dulwich & have 2 well-used scratchers: A large single post (ideal for an adult cat) & a small cat tree with 2 short posts (ideal for kittens) While the wear & tear is nowhere near as bad as the one shown in the link below, ideally the sisal should be replaced to get the best use out of it (& neutralise the scent of another cat) hence why I haven't donated these to a shelter. You may find this link helpful: https://thegreenmadhouse.com/diy/how-to-repair-your-cat-scratcher But you can just get a brand new one between £10-£30 on Amazon that'll last much longer. It all depends on what type of scratcher you're looking for; material, size, vertical or horizontal. Your little lion will let you know by whether they're currently scratching down or up, like a mat or armchair for example. More than happy to send location & leave in front garden for pickup.
    • Would happily take it off your hands! Preferably in Peckham. Thanks 🙏🏻
