Damp Proofing Indemnity Guarantees against Rising Damp
Rising Damp can cause serious structural problems, induce Dry or Wet rot and destroy decorations and timbers.
Its treatment ranges from £500.00 for a very small area to over £20,000 if serious damage has occurred.
A progressive guarantees company and the only company to provide policies to indemnify homeowners against Rising Damp are offering a 10-year policy from £299.00 + VAT for the term if you reside within the M25.
The Association approves this policy, and it covers not only the Damp Proofing treatment but also all associated repairs, decoration and timber replacement where damage has been caused by Rising Damp.

Just one occurrence of Rising Damp in a semi detached could cost £2,500 and this policy is for ten years deciding a simple matter. A one-off payment can be made using a credit or debit card. The guarantee is emailed within two working days.
The Guarantees company is in direct talks with many Insurance companies to provide this service as a supplementary option for their clients as all insurance policies excluded Rising Damp as its so common and expensive to fix.
All claims are investigated by RICS Surveyors and a full schedule of repairs drafted by the Surveyor.
