- Tanking
The word 'tanking' is a civil engineering term and is the process of preventing moisture ingress into structures built partially or wholly below ground level. The most effective way to waterproof a below-ground level structure is to tank on the external face. This keeps the structure dry and free from attack by ground salts. Read More

It is becoming more and more frequent on damp surveys, where chimney breast or chimney stacks require remedial works. Penetrating damp due to faulty fascias, soffits, slates or guttering is also common. Rest assured the problem can be diagnosed and remedied by the A1 Dampcoursing team.
