Catch this overview of the most common types of dampness encountered in modern buildings and learn how to effectively battle them.

Retrofit Wall Insulation & Dampness – 6th June

Any company that wishes to undertake publicly-funded energy-saving retrofit works needs to obtain TrustMark approval and have their projects overseen by an approved Retrofit Coordinator under PAS 2035 regulations. 

During insulation retrofit works, moisture management is key. This webinar covers the PAS standards as well as practical moisture management during the installation of retrofit insulation.

Penetrating Damp – 9th May

Wind-driven rainfall in combination with the explosion in energy-saving cavity wall retrofit has seen properties without issues suddenly suffer from penetrating damp.

Find out how to diagnose and treat penetrating damp with all the latest methods in this webinar.

Basement Waterproofing – 25th May

Basements are enjoying a resurgence in popularity, but it is important they have proper waterproofing.

This seminar looks at the different waterproofing options available and assists specifiers in choosing the correct system for a given construction type and location.

Rising Damp – 4th July

Rising Damp is often misunderstood. It mostly occurs in older buildings, where water rises up through bricks and mortar to cause damage.

Explore the history of rising damp across the world and the latest methods of solving it with a Safeguard R&D Scientist.

Condensation & Mould – 18th July

Condensation and mould growth is the most common damp problem for building occupants and owners. 

Mould and excess condensation destroys possessions and makes health problems worse. This webinar offers a in-depth insight into the causes and effects of condensation and the wide range of modern-day treatments available.

Presentation slides and webinar video recordings will be available to all attendees following each webinar.
