Common Damp Problems in Bloubergstrand
| Problem | Usual work |
|---|---|
| Sea-facing balconies and sliding doors leaking in winter storms | Balcony waterproofing and resealing doors and windows |
| Paint and plaster breaking down on walls facing the sea | Damp wall repairs, penetrating damp sealing |

Local Conditions Contractors Should Plan For
- Sea air. Salt and wind-driven rain wear down paint, sealants and window seals faster near the sea.
- Wind. Strong winds drive rain into walls, doors and windows, and blow sand into balcony outlets.
- Holiday homes. Houses closed up for weeks build up condensation and mould. Ventilation helps.
What to Send for an Accurate Quote
- Suburb, estate or building name.
- Where the damp shows, how high and how big.
- Whether it gets worse after rain.
- House, townhouse, flat or commercial property.
- Photos inside and outside the affected wall.
