Call us on - 01626 331351 - for prices for pumps, reconditioned pumps, spray lances and injection equipment.
Spare Parts for DPC Pumps The spare parts for maintenance and repair of DPC and Spraying pumps are available ex stock for pumps up to 25 years old - these pumps last a long time with the right care. Spare parts for Spraying and Injection Pumps
Call us on - 01626 331351 - for prices for pump parts, reconditioned pumps, spray lances and injection equipment.
Brass Spray Lances High quality brass spray lances and extension tubes, adjustable spray nozzles and backspray nozzles are required for treating woodworm and dry rot. The 'backspray' allows injection of spray into hidden spaces behind panels (like staircases) and the flight hole nozzle can be used to inject individual holes. Spray lances and extensions are needed for spraying timber and treating dry rot.
Call us on - 01626 331351 - for prices for spray lances and injection equipment.
Stainless Steel Hand Pump up Sprayers Spraying can also be carried out using pump up hand sprayers. These have the advantage, for small jobs, of needing no electricity and being easily portable. They are useful for spraying wood for woodworm or rot treatment, or masonry for dry rot treatment.
Stainless steel hand pump sprayers, for woodworm, dry rot and pest control.

| How to test damp walls and timber - (don't forget to eliminate the moisture source) | |
|
Firstly, check the outside of the building for rainwater penetration - if the walls are absorbing moisture apply a water repellent - UltraProof - check your downpipes and gutters. Click here to see the Data Sheet for the Damp Testing Meter Click here to see a Quick Guide to understanding the readings from a Damp testing Meter - Front Page Click here for Quick Guide Back Page Damp testing meter - a sturdy conductivity meter, ideal for testing masonry (brick, stone, plaster) and timber (skirting boards, floors) to give an indication of 'relative' dampness. Always use meters to compare like materials, never to give absolute moisture readings. How to test damp walls and timber - general purpose dual scale 'pin' conductivity meter.
Benefits are as follows;
Can also be used to test damp floors and new concrete floors. (We also sell the Protimeter Range of products, including the Surveymaster. These are Professional instruments, starting at over £100 plus VAT for the basic model.) Go straight to Price List and Order Form . |

Protimeter Mini - The Protimeter Mini can be used for making rapid moisture assessments in a wide range of building materials including wood, masonry, drywall, plaster and concrete. The instrument measuring pins are small and sharp which means measurements can be taken at the surface with virtually no mark left behind. The numerical values represent the actual percent moisture content of wood (%MC) and the wood moisture equivalent (WME) of other materials. The Protimeter Mini can be used to determine if the fabric of a building is in a dry, borderline or damp condition. When taking readings in awkward positions, the Protimeter Mini can be used with the moisture probe and lead, supplied as standard with the instrument. The optional Protimeter Hammer Electrode can also be used with the Protimeter Mini for determining moisture gradients in wood. Optional Deep Wall Probes can be used with Protimeter Mini to measure the moisture level at depth in a wall, irrespective of the surface condition. Deep Wall Probes are very useful accessories when investigating the cause of the moisture problems within buildings. Protimeter Mini

| Protimeter Surveymaster - advanced damp tests | |
Protimeter Surveymaster - The Dual Mode Moisture Meter The NEW Surveymaster incorporates two modes of operation - search and measure (non-invasive and pin type). Search and measure enable the user to distinguish surface moisture from sub-surface moisture, essential information when trying to establish the extent and cause of a moisture problem. Surveymaster is a moisture meter that displays the moisture level values on a digital display along side a scale of colour coded lights. This digital moisture meter helps in accurate building material moisture measurement. This combined presentation of moisture measurement helps the user to map the extent of problems and monitor changes in condition precisely and reliably.

| Summary | |
|
Mould growth is caused by Condensation forming on the surface or inside the building material Condensation is caused by high levels of moisture in the air condensing on the coldest surfaces in the room, often at night when the temperature falls Surfaces will be colder if they are damp - rising and penetrating dampness, blocked wall cavities or lack of them, can all increase dampness Dampness can be caused by common defects, like blocked gutters overflowing, poor pointing, cracked external render. Testing wood for moisture content - at over 18-20% wood can begin to rot.
