Has you chimney leak damaged your internal walls?

This could be Hydroscopic Salt Contamination!

See Below…

Hygroscopic salt contamination is very common on chimney breasts and, as a result of rising dampness and water ingress.

Ground water and other penetrating dampness introduces Chlorides and Nitrates (salts) into the building fibre. As the water evaporates these salts are left in the building and over many years become concentrated on the wall surface

These salts can also be introduced through the combustion of fossil fuels.

During periods of high humidity (such as the winter months, or periods of prolonged rain), moisture vapour (condensation) is attracted to the salts, causing them to become soluble and therefore damp.

Eradication of Hygroscopic dampness is a combination of ensuring that the path of water is prevented, and the salt affected plaster is removed and reinstated with a plaster containing a salt inhibitor and water proofer.

  • “They did a very good job stripping, insulating and replacing 3 flat roofs at our house 3 years ago – 2 dormers and a porch. Yesterday I had a tile come away as the nibs failed. I texted Adam with a photo and asked if he could help as I did not have a disc cutter for trimming the spare tile I had and my ladders were not suitable to get near enough to replace the tile. He came today while I was away, did the repair and texted me at work to say all done. He did not want payment as he said “it didn’t take too long” yet he came from Bournemouth. What a service – cannot recommend Adam highly enough – honest, courteous, tidy and does what he say he’ll do – A rare thing with some tradesmen these days.”

  • "After all the glorious sunshine, the sound of pouring rain should have been a blessing... but not inside the house. AKT Roofing was recommended to us. Adam came very quickly, assessed the damage very rapidly, and was very reassuring. His excellent team repaired it without delay. We were so relieved and impressed by the pleasantness, speed, charges and workmanship; we'd recommend them to anyone."
