Trusted Damp Proofing in Tring, Hertfordshire
Advanced Damp has been based in Tring for over 30 years, and damp proofing across the town and the surrounding Hertfordshire and Buckinghamshire borders is at the heart of what we do. Tring has a large number of older and period properties, which are the most likely to develop rising and penetrating damp as original damp proofing breaks down over time.
Whatever the symptom, damp patches, tide marks, peeling paint, musty smells or crumbling plaster, we start by diagnosing the real cause rather than treating the surface. That is the only way to fix damp so it stays fixed.
Every treatment we carry out is backed by a written 20-year guarantee, with an insurance-backed guarantee available as an option on request.

Damp Proofing Tring FAQs
How much does damp proofing cost in Tring?
It depends on the cause and the extent of the problem, which is why we start with a survey. You receive a fixed-price quote after the diagnosis, and the survey fee is deducted from the cost of the works if you go ahead.
What are the signs of rising damp?
Typical signs are tide marks or brown staining low down on walls, peeling paint or wallpaper, damp or crumbling plaster, a musty smell, and damaged skirting boards. A survey confirms whether it is genuinely rising damp or another cause, as they are often confused.
Which areas around Tring do you cover?
We are based on Western Road in Tring and cover the town and the surrounding area, including Berkhamsted, Hemel Hempstead, Wigginton, Aldbury, Northchurch, Wendover, Chesham and across the Hertfordshire and Buckinghamshire borders.
How long does the guarantee last?
Our damp proofing works come with a written 20-year guarantee. An insurance-backed guarantee is also available as an option on request, which protects the guarantee even in the unlikely event the company ceases trading.
Do I need a survey before treatment?
Yes. Damp is frequently misdiagnosed, and treating the wrong cause is why it comes back. A survey identifies the true cause so the treatment matches the problem, and the fee is deducted from the cost of works if you proceed.
