Damp and timber problems in Larne
Larne is exposed coastal territory. Properties along the seafront and up the Antrim coast take some of the harshest weather in Northern Ireland — sustained driving rain carrying salt.
That combination attacks pointing, render and joinery, and drives water through masonry from outside. Breathable external waterproofing is usually the right answer, not internal sealing.
Wet rot in window frames and door surrounds is far more common here than inland.
What we see most here
- Masonry waterproofing against driving rain
- Wet rot in exposed joinery
- Penetrating damp on seaward elevations
“I recently bought a new house that had woodworm in the roof space. I contacted Radication and they were extremely helpful and sent a surveyor out within a few days to advise me on the best way to deal with the problem. They gave me a quotation which was very reasonable, and I got the work done. The technicians they sent were extremely neat and tidy and I was very satisfied with the work. I would have no problems recommending them.”
