Expert Damp Proofing in Brighton

Brighton's coastal location means properties are exposed to sea salt air and high humidity levels. Many Victorian and Edwardian homes in areas like Kemptown, Hove, and the Preston Park area were built without modern damp proof courses, making them particularly vulnerable. Additionally, the historic terraces often lack adequate ventilation, trapping moisture inside.

Costs vary depending on the type and extent of damp. A basic damp survey in Brighton typically costs between £150-£250. Rising damp treatment for a typical Victorian terrace might range from £800-£2,500, while comprehensive solutions for severe problems can vary.
