Property Drying

Balfour Property Renovations has the equipment and resources to help restore your property after major flooding, property leaks or stubborn dampness.

To fully understand the level of damage to your property, we will first carry out a pre-assessment survey to determine what equipment is required for the drying process. We will assess the extent of the damage, including how long the dampness and/or flooding has been present in the property, any structural damage caused by the water, and any health, safety and environmental factors that should be considered before starting work. Once everything is assessed, we will begin the drying process.

At Balfour Property Renovations we have a selection of specialist drying equipment to use against various levels of water damage to ensure a level of acceptable moisture has been reached and your property is back to its pre-incident standard. At this point we will issue you with a 12 month guarantee on our work.

Subsidence

Subsidence is the term used to describe the natural sinking of the earth’s surface, caused by a loss of moisture in the ground. When this phenomenon occurs beneath your property, it can pull the building’s foundation down with it, weakening the property’s structure.

To fully understand the level of subsidence around your property, we will first carry out a pre-assessment survey to determine what is causing the fault and what equipment we need, to ensure further damage is prevented. This assessment will focus on any structural damage caused by the sinking, the surrounding landscape of the property, and the building’s drainage system. We will also assess any health, safety and environmental factors that could impact this process. 

Depending on the cause of the subsidence, there are a number of solutions available to treat and prevent further damage.

If the subsidence is the result of leaking pipes, Balfour Property Renovations has the equipment and experience to repair or replace the affected area of drainage, ensuring no further defects.  

In the unlikely event that your property needs to be underpinned, our team can advise on the best method to reinforce the foundations and reduce the impact of subsidence.

At Balfour Property Renovations we provide a one-stop-shop for all your needs – saving you from the inconvenience of managing multiple tradespeople at one time. 

Additionally, with a single team managing your subsidence repairs, you will find it is easier to conduct business with insurance specialists, should you choose to claim support for the damage caused to your property.

Asbestos Removal

If asbestos is found in a property, it is important to employ a professional to handle, remove and dispose of it, as per standard regulations.

Although asbestos is no longer a common feature in new builds, it can still be found in old properties – particularly those built before 1980 –  resurfacing as a consequence of property renovation or demolition. When asbestos is found, it is crucial that you contact a professional. 

At Balfour Property Renovations we’ll assess the level of asbestos present in the property – following strict health and safety regulations – before carefully encapsulating or removing the affected material and disposing of it properly. 

A certified professional is required to remove asbestos to prevent further exposure. This can occur if the material carrying the asbestos is broken or damaged, causing asbestos fibers to become airborne. Evidence has shown that there is no safe level of asbestos exposure, therefore contact with it can be dangerous, if not fatal, if proper procedures are not followed.
