Damp and Timber Specialists for 50 years

Commercial Damp Proofing Services You Can Trust

Damp problems in commercial buildings can cause major risks to the structure, compliance, and daily use. Moisture can cause damage to internal finishes, weaken materials, and lead to health and safety issues if not managed. Early action helps avoid disruption and reduces long-term cost.

Prokil offers damp proofing services for landlords, housing providers, facilities teams, and others. Certified specialists undertake surveys, and each one comes with photos and written reports for support. You receive a clear assessment of the damp source, any associated risks, and suitable remedial works, with no obligation to proceed.

We work in the South of England, providing durable damp protection and approved treatments for a range of property types.

Why Choose Prokil?


How We Deliver Damp Proofing for Commercial Properties

Each damp proofing project starts with a survey by one of our qualified specialists. Our surveyors have recognised certifications like CSRT, CSTDB, and CSSW. They are trained to assess moisture-related issues in different types of buildings and sectors.

When the survey is done, you will receive a detailed report. This report will show the source of the damp issue, recommend treatments, and include a quote for the necessary repairs. The report contains photos that support the findings and is provided with no obligation to continue.

Where remedial works are required, treatments may include:

In cases where damp has affected structural timbers, we also offer:

All treatments are delivered in compliance with PCA standards and covered by our 20-year guarantee. Prokil supports health and safety needs under CHAS and other rules for commercial projects when needed.

The Commercial Sectors We Serve

Prokil serves various property owners in the South of England. This includes those from commercial, institutional, and specialist sectors. All damp and timber surveys are designed to fit the building type and the client’s needs. Our reports support compliance, protect long-term asset value, and guide necessary remedial work.

Property Management & Housing Sector

We work with private landlords, housing associations, local authorities, letting agents, and block management companies. Our services include damp surveys and remedial treatments for managed and tenanted properties. Our reports are typically used for pre-sale or pre-let inspections. They can be issued after valuation surveys or tenant complaints. We also support estate agents, build-to-rent operators, and residential developers, including volume housebuilders.

Commercial Property Sector

Prokil partners with commercial landlords, property managers, and facilities teams. They handle offices, shops, hotels, and logistics centres. We treat high-street units, shopping centres, warehouses, multi-storey office blocks, and more. Our team create tailored reports and treatments for each site. This supports overall maintenance strategies.

Public Sector & Institutions

Our clients include NHS Trusts, schools, academies, universities, colleges, and emergency services. We also provide damp surveys and treatments for Ministry of Defence housing and operational buildings. Services are arranged to limit disruption while meeting health, safety, and building regulations.

Construction & Building Sector

Our team supports main contractors, subcontractors, architectural practices, building surveyors, and specialist consultants. We provide damp and timber assessments during refurbishment, post-water damage inspection, or before project handover. Reports are used by insurance companies and loss adjusters, too. Treatments are done according to industry guidelines, and photos are provided when necessary.

Heritage & Specialist Properties

Prokil has expertise in treating listed buildings and heritage sites. This includes churches, religious buildings, and museums. We collaborate with conservation officers and building owners. Together, we find methods that protect the structure and preserve its historical features. We also support registered charities managing older housing stock or institutional buildings.

Hospitality & Leisure Sector

We deliver specialist damp treatments for hotels, B&B operators, pub and brewery chains, leisure centres, gyms, salons, and holiday parks. Many of these buildings have cellars, kitchens, or shared areas that are prone to condensation and mould. Our treatments are planned to minimise disruption and can be scheduled outside of trading hours where required.

Industrial & Agricultural

Prokil provides damp solutions for factories, warehouses, rural estates, and agricultural buildings. We work with industrial landlords, site operators, and business park managers to treat moisture ingress in floor slabs, workshops, and storage areas. Where necessary, we support flood recovery, structural drying, and ongoing maintenance programmes.

Other Commercial Environments

Our clients include mortgage lenders, legal firms, and auction houses. They require damp surveys for valuation and dispute resolution. We support community centres, village halls, supported housing providers, and more. We also help secure facilities, including prisons and detention centres.
