The challenge
Excess moisture makes renovation for listed building even more delicate
Restoring an early 19th century, listed building is a delicate process, and when a construction company began this procedure, the last thing they needed was to discover a moisture problem. The more that they exposed, the more they discovered that the damp was further reaching than they initially realised. It required prompt intervention in order to preserve precious artwork.
Swelling in the walls and floor was threatening widespread damage to this piece of history. What was needed was an expert partner who could rid the building of the excess moisture. It needed a delicate and precise approach, while working around the ongoing restoration works.
