What is damp, and what causes it?
Rising damp is a common problem in older properties either because no damp proof course (DPC) was provided at the time of building, or because a physical membrane has failed or been 'bridged'. In the majority of cases the provision of a remedial DPC is a cost effective and minimum disturbance option.
Dampness in buildings if left untreated can lead to structural deterioration; it will result in decay of timber, spoil decorations and can have problematic health effects through the development of moulds and mites.
When an absorbent material such as paper, wood, cloth or brick is placed in a damp atmosphere it will absorb moisture. If the humidity changes the moisture content of the material will change with it.
Ultracure - Damp-proofing Cream
Ultracure is a unique silicone emulsion cream for injection into brickwork etc.
for control of rising dampness. Ultracure can be used in all types of masonry
without the use of high pressure equipment.
- Ultracure cream offers fast & clean installation.
- No high-pressure injection pump required.
- Virtually odourless, low hazard.
- Precise dosing.

Anti-condensation
Condensation is becoming one of the commonest causes of dampness in buildings and is nearly always associated with black mould growth.
The problem arises because of high relative humidities, a lack of natural ventilation and in most cases, cold external walls. Navigation Supply can provide a range of products for the prevention, or cure of condensation and mould growth within the home.
Mould eradication kit...
A full multi purpose kit ideal for you to deal with mould problems.
The kit is supplied with cleaning agents, all equipment and paint
additives to treat and clean mould issues in domestic properties.
Mould Clear Concentrate MCS1
This product is designed to provide an initial wash/sterilisation
treatment to remove and kill mould spores and surface growths on
painted or papered surfaces.
Fungicidal Additive MCS3
MCS3 Fungicidal Additive is a high quality decorative paint additive
for internal surfaces and contains a long lasting biocide for the
control of surface moulds. It can be used in both Silk and Matt
finishes. The formulation has been proven over many years to
provide effective resistance to mould growth in difficult areas.
Anti Condensation Paint - 5 Litres
A high quality coating recommended for use on areas not subject to
abrasion or washing. Typically this means ceilings, underside of
roofing sheets, ducting, steel building frames, pipe work, and inside
cupboards. Wykamol Anti-condensation paint inhibits condensation
by absorbing moisture and improving insulation.
Structural Waterproofing
Basement conversions are increasingly popular, and we have everything
you need to complete the job. The key to success in any below-ground
conversion project is to ensure the area is completely waterproof - which
is where Wykamol's specialist products become invaluable.
Membranes
Wykamol's high quality Cavity Drainage membranes provide an air gap between the membrane and the wall, which allows any free water to run behind it. The membrane is mechanically fixed to the original sound wall surfaces then overlaid with treated battens or other framing systems, onto which plasterboard can be fixed. In some circumstances the battens can be omitted and plasterboard and membrane fixed using special plastic plugs, alternatively a wet plaster can be applied.
CM8
Wykamol CM8 is a cavity drain membrane and is manufactured from high
density polyethylene (PEH). It is impermeable and resistant to the usual
chemicals in teh building construction.
Kontract 8
This membrane is used on both walls and floors with an 'air gap' of 5.3 Litres
of space per m2 with high compressive strength.
Available in 2m x 20m (40m2), and 2.4m x 20m (48m2), this membrane is
used for light water ingress situations.
Kontract Mesh
Dimpled sheeting with plastic mesh welded on, suitable as a damp proof base
for plaster or shortcrete, e.g, as a seepage layer in tunnel construction, or
for repairing basements internally.
Also available as a kit (including: mesh, tape, and plugs).
Slimline Mesh
Dimpled sheeting with plastic mesh welded on, suitable as a damp proof base
for plaster or shortcrete, e.g, as a seepage layer in tunnel construction, or
for repairing basements internally.
Also available as a kit (including: mesh, tape, and plugs).
Other Membranes available are: CM Plaster, K20, CM Floor, Wykamol Slimline, Kontract Geotextile & Thermoseal.
