Damp Proofing Elstead

Most property owners in the UK have found themselves experiencing problems with damp at some point. Unfortunately, damp can quickly cause a significant amount of damage to your property, causing issues like flaking paint, crumbling plaster, rotting skirting boards, and curling wallpaper.

Damp proofing Elstead is the process or technique of preventing dampness from entering or affecting a building. Damp can damage buildings and affect their occupants’ health, so it’s important to keep it at bay. Damp proofing your home will help to protect it from the effects of damp, keeping it in good condition for years to come.

There are several ways to for our damp specialists in Elstead to damp proof your home. The most common is to install a damp proof course (DPC) which is a physical barrier that stops rising damp from entering the property. DPCs can be made from various materials including plastic, bitumen, slate, lead and even ceramic. DPCs should be installed by a professional as they need to be placed at the correct height in order to be effective.

Another way to damp proof your home is to use chemical Damp Proofing. Our Chemical Elstead Damp Proofing Service involves injecting a liquid chemical into the masonry of the property. The chemical reacts with the bricks and mortar to create a water-repellent barrier. This method is often used on properties that have no DPC or where the DPC has failed.

As a Elstead damp specialist, we know that damp can also be prevented by ensuring that any existing rising damp in Elstead is dealt with quickly and effectively. If you have any areas of damp in your home, it’s important to address them as soon as possible. Damp can spread quickly and cause extensive damage if left untreated, so it’s always best to nip it in the bud.

If you think your home may be at risk of damp, or if you have any concerns about damp, please don’t hesitate to get in touch with us. As a damp proofer in Elstead, we are experts in all things damp and can advise you on the best course of action to take. We offer a free, no-obligation survey so that we can assess your property and recommend the best solution for you.

Fulham
Fixing roof and painting outside of house.

Matthew and his team did an amazing job in my house, fixing a damp issue (inside as well as outside the house), repainting several areas, replastering etc. They were very friendly and professional, thorough and incredibly quick to quote (reasonably), get the work started and finished. It was an absolute pleasure to deal with the team and I therefore highly recommend City Building and Roofing Ltd for any work you may have. I'm very pleased with the quality of the work completed.

oliviacarucci
Small damp in living room

Matt, Mike and their team assessed our requirements, responded promptly to any concerns and communicated very well throughout. They take obvious pride in their work and project-managed the job well in the face of unpredictable weather and extra issues that came to light. They were always courteous and good-humoured. They tidied up scrupulously after the job and came in on the agreed quote. They have guaranteed their work so that if there are any problems we can come back to them. We couldn’t ask for fairer than that: a credit to their profession.

Guttering and downpipe of three storey house

We own what they call a lion house, an Edwardian property in Wandsworth. The brick column holding a heavy stone lion at the apex of the roof was disintegrating, causing the lion to lean rather dangerously, so it was a matter of urgency to get the brickwork replaced with new bricks, also the concrete plinth the lion sits on needed replacing. I contacted City Roofing, and luckily they were able to do the job quickly. I live in Cornwall, so it's always a problem finding builders etc who don't rip you off, do a substandard job because they know I won't re around to inspect, so I was taking my usual chance hiring Matthew (City Roofing), but he's done an excellent job, and I couldn't be happier, we spoke over the phone throughout, and what a nice guy to deal with, he sent pictures of before and after, so I was assured of his work, and the pictures told the story, a brilliant piece of work, done quickly and efficiently. I can happily recommend City Roofing, and should I need anymore building work done, they are definitely top of my list.

Rebuild parapet

I have used City Building and Roofing for the last 10 years and I have always been very happy with the quality of their workmanship and time keeping. I have done many jobs with them, roof, rain water soakaway, fence, patio, and I will not use any other companies as long as City Building exits. I know that whatever happens to my house, City Building will always be there to do the work including emergency work due to storm. I highly recommend this company from quality of work, reliability and pricing.

Matthew was extremely professional and came and quoted immediately.

External Renering

We needed our entire roof replaced, with new tiles, underfelt and insulation installed. Matthew and his team were very professional and courteous during the entire process, making sure to explain things clearly at every stage. While the tiles were off, we had some very heavy rain which caused some water to leak into the eaves and subsequently damage the ceiling to our downstairs room. Matthew made sure to repair the damage at no extra cost and prevent any more leaks. They installed new plasterboard and painted the whole thing. We also had a few holes and cracks in the loft room due to the roof works, which they filled in and made good at the end of the job. All rubbish was cleared afterwards promptly.

Matthew and his team came to the rescue at short notice, just before Xmas, and did wonderful job at saving a massive leak into my bedroom. I couldn’t find a roofer to help out on such short notice but Matthew did everything possible to get his team to work on a Saturday to fix the issue. It was just on time as that night it rained so heavily that there would have been extensive damage so I am extremely grateful to his professional help and forthcoming nature to help me so efficiently and quickly fix the problem. I couldn’t recommend him and his team more.

Renewal of flat roof , soffit, fascia and gutters

I was very pleased with the work Matthew did on my roof and out of all the tradesmen I met when getting quotes for the work I felt he was the most honest and fair. He also gave me advice about other aspects of the roof which was very useful. I would definitely use City Roofing and Building again.

Repair to roof.

A very good experience with this company. All forms of communication were clear and prompt. They did an excellent job, our roof was damaged following storm Eunice. They took time to explain everything and arrived on the agreed date as promised and completed the work to a high standard. Very professional company and would highly recommend.

Fix a leak

Matthew and his team came to the rescue at short notice, just before Xmas, and did wonderful job at saving a massive leak into my bedroom. I couldn’t find a roofer to help out on such short notice but Matthew did everything possible to get his team to work on a Saturday to fix the issue. It was just on time as that night it rained so heavily that there would have been extensive damage so I am extremely grateful to his professional help and forthcoming nature to help me so efficiently and quickly fix the problem. I couldn’t recommend him and his team more.

Matthew and Lee managed to turn around a difficult job in a short time. They kept us informed of progress with pictures and regular updates and talked us through options when an unrelated problem was discovered.

September - Fixing damp, ground floor & basement - work needed asap

Although we didn't end up going with a builder from this site I would highly recommend Matthew for the diligence he showed in quoting for the job, he came round at least twice to look at the job, going above and beyond to get close to the issue and maintained good communication throughout.

cara waldrop

Last months I had an issue by some one else who didn’t really know what they where doing, so I called up city building and roofing recommended by a friend. They came next Moring and gave a good price and amazing customer service. They have insured me its not a big deal and got the damage repaired asap

Couldn’t ask for any better service

Chertsey Print

Matthew and his team were friendly and polite and we are very pleased with the quality of work. Their timekeeping wasn’t brilliant but overall would absolutely recommend. A professional, good service at a reasonable price compared to some of the other quotes we had.

London
Roof repairs and new flat roof

Having done excellent work for us before, Matthew, Lee & the team came to the rescue when a side roof on our house was badly damaged in Storm Ciaran (Nov 2023) and we had serious water-leakage inside. They made the roof secure while Matthew prepared clear & conscientious reports of the damage etc. For the insurance company. That having been sorted, they completed a good full repair on the roof. They are really experienced, with a great range of skills, always a polite & professional manner, punctual etc. City Building and Roofing will always be our go-to for building work & repair.

Julia Raeburn

The true sign of a professional with integrity is how they react when things don't go quite according to plan. Matthew and his team did the job as required, were utterly professional and acted with complete integrity. I have no hesitation in recommending him and would invite him back to do further work.
It is relatively easy to get a good review when everything goes smoothly, to get a good review even when they don't is something that really is hard earned. Things did go wrong, but Matthew's response was exemplary; he responded quickly, without hesitation and sorted the problem as soon as he possibly could.
This really is a class outfit.

Egham
Leaking roof, loose tiles

Matthew is a very professional individual and since he did my soak away, he has also repaired the roof, repointed the chimney, redone two flat roofs and changed all the garden fence panels. Matthew is a punctual individual who is meticulous and has great attention to details, which even extends to his invoice. Matthew delivers great clean quality of work at a good price. I would happily recommend Matthew and I will continue using his services for any work to be done in my house. It is good to know you can rely on someone and that the work will meet your expectations and even further.

Ashford

We were very happy with the work carried out by City Building and Roofing in September / October 2019. It was a messy job with awkward access but Matthew and Lee went out of their way to run things smoothly. Both very nice people, always ready to answer our questions and find the best way of proceeding. I would definitely use this company again and recommend them to others. Maggie Jones

Fantastic company!!! Great price , Didn’t let me down , always on time. Coming back in the year new for basement conversion.

London
I had leaks coming through the parapet wall, new soakers.

Matthew and Lee replaced the glass conservatory-style roof over our rear extension (which was leaky and made the room very cold in winter) with a GRP "warm" roof incorporating two rooflights. We are very happy indeed with the result. It was a high quality job. Matthew and Lee were very pleasant people to deal with. They clearly care about their work. They will come back and redo something if you are not happy. They were always cheerful, even when the weather made things really difficult for them. Would definitely recommend!

Replace roof over rear extension

Lee and Matthew are both brilliant. I chose City Building and Roofing for the job because out of the 6 builders who evaluated the situation- their pricing was fair, their manner, excellent and their time spent explaining everything to someone who hasn’t a clue, was informative without being confusing. Professional, thorough, attentive, knowledgeable and communicative. They got the job done despite bad weather at the time and so far, so good. When teething (not even) problems occurred, they were straight on it and went above and beyond to get everything right. I’m SO glad I hired them, I’d recommend them for their expertise and I would absolutely hire them again in the future.
