Common Damp Questions from Falmouth Homeowners

Cornwall’s climate with regular rainfall and humidity combined with older housing stock creates ideal conditions for damp. Many properties in Falmouth were built before modern damp-proofing standards existed, making rising damp, penetrating damp, and condensation particularly common in the region.

Costs vary depending on property size and severity of the damp problem. In Falmouth, typical prices are: Rising damp £1,800-£3,500, Penetrating damp £2,000-£4,500, Mould removal £800-£2,500, and Basement waterproofing £3,500-£15,000. We always provide free surveys and fixed-price quotes before any work begins.

Most internal damp treatments don’t require planning permission in Falmouth. However, if your property is listed or in a conservation area, you may need consent for certain external works. We handle all necessary applications with Falmouth local authority and advise on requirements during your survey.
