Although often associated with unkempt student houses and dingy hotels, damp and mould are two problems which can affect any and every building. A build-up of moisture can result in unpleasant patches of damp and mildew in the home, which can, in turn, lead to wallpaper lifting, carpets appearing wet, and air conditioning units working overtime. Exposure to damp and mildew can even have a negative impact on your health; mouldy environments have been linked to nasal and throat irritation, itchy skin and even lung infections.
With this in mind, it's clear that protecting your home or office against damp should be one of your top priorities - especially during the colder months when rainfall is high and chilly temperatures are persistent. Here are our top tips for doing so:
Keeping your home nice and toasty is one of the simplest yet most effective ways to prevent the onset of damp and mould. Damp occurs as a result of moisture build-ups, so making sure that your home is warm enough to stay dry with an efficient central heating system and double glazed windows is essential to protecting it against condensation and lingering moisture.
In addition to keeping your home warm and dry, you'll need to make sure that it's well ventilated, too. Making sure you open windows regularly and make the most of extractor fans - especially in rooms where humidity levels are high, such as kitchens and bathrooms - will encourage air to move through your home and prevent moisture from becoming condensation.
In order to keep your home protected against damp, you'll need to ensure it's protected against the elements. This includes making sure that your roof is in full working order and that any cracks in your walls are repaired quickly and efficiently to prevent leaks from causing water damage to your home. If you've noticed stains or watermarks in your upstairs rooms, especially in rooms which are joined to the chimney breast, then you may have a leaking roof on your hands.
If you're looking for a cost-effective alternative to having your roof re-tiled or your rendering touched up, a waterproof RENOTEC roof coating or proPERLA wall coating could be the ideal solution for you. Waterproof coatings not only give your home a heightened kerb appeal but also protect your roof and external walls from rain, snow and sunlight. They're able to prevent moisture from seeping through your bricks and tiles and are a great investment for all homeowners. So, what are you waiting for?

Excellent all round service. Very professional and meticulous job. Neighbours extremely impressed with the look of our house - (night & day!!) So impressed with everything - great job - Brian & Scott are great workers - thank you.
From the initial contact with Peter the surveyor to Barry and Bob who carried out the work I had complete confidence that the workmanship would be of a high standard. I was not disappointed.
It was a pleasure to have 2 workmen arriving bright & cheery every morning at the specified time. Ryan & Martin were very professional and kept us informed at every stage. Nothing was any bother for them. We would certainly recommend them and your company to family and friends. Passers by have actually commented on the quality of the work.
As far as can be seen at the moment we are extremely pleased with all we have had done. It will take a little time to adjust to it all and see how it wears. We trust that all will be well and the warranty will cover all. Your 2 workmen are a real credit to your company.
Brian and Scott went well over what I expected and were so willing to help me out over anything I asked. If I ever were to get Kingdom Coatings to do additional work, I would ask for them. Thank you.
A very professional company who know exactly what is required to produce a top class job. Their staff are equally professional and work unsupervised to give the client exactly what they are looking for.
The workers explained what was required before starting, making sure we understood the work that was to be carried out. They showed much respect to us as customers. Overall delighted with the work and attitude to those of us who are older and in need of guidance.
A very pleasant experience with NO hassle whatsoever. We are extremely delighted with the finished job and would highly recommend Kingdom Coatings.
Great staff, they just came and got on with the job. No messing about. Very hard working. The lady in the office was great at keeping us informed with what was happening. Overall a good experience. (Walls)
The installers were hard working and polite with a sense of humour. Management and office staff could not be faulted either for going out their way to provide a safe service.
The two men were very polite and have done a great job. You hear so many stories about companies who come to your door trying to sell you things. From Mandy who came to give us a quote to the two lads who did the job, cannot fault them. Very professional.
We have found the service from your company to be of a very high standard and would advise anyone we know to use your company. Both men were extremely polite and helpful. Thank you.
From start to finish we have been very happy with the hard work Brian and Scott have been involved in. Nothing has been a bother to them, and Dave and I have been very impressed that they were always asking if we were happy with the results and indeed we are. (Walls)
I have been well satisfied with the way that the whole job has been tackled and I'm very pleased with the end results.
Professional, pleasant workers. Work was carried out efficiently with no delay during the process. Clean – up of surroundings, driveway, windows etc very good. Overall I'm completely satisfied.
I’m extremely pleased with the work carried out at my house. Greg and Barry are an excellent team. They worked hard the day my roof was cleaned – the weather was baltic but it didn’t phase them. A job well done indeed.
A very hard working team who worked extremely hard and did a great job. They kept me informed at regular intervals during their visits. A thoroughly professional service. Well done!
Very professional, there was no pressure in their approach and their operatives showed their experience and always explained what they were doing and when such an activity was to be carried out.
Extremely pleased. Colour a little lighter than I expected but makes a huge difference to our property. We will recommend Kingdom Coatings to others.
I am extremely satisfied with the way and manner that your personnel showed in carrying out their work. Will only be too happy to recommend your company to anybody that enquires. (Walls)
