from our office in Tienen
What that changes here
Old farm walls sit straight on the ground, with no damp-proof membrane: rising damp is the norm. Injection works, provided the masonry is solid and the joint accessible — we say so beforehand, not afterwards.
Our registered office is on Leuvensestraat. We know the Tienen building stock from the inside: grand town houses in the centre with box gutters concealed behind a cornice, post-war houses in concrete tiles now reaching their first renovation, and in the villages farms with vast roofs and fibre cement outbuildings.
What we get called out for in Tienen
In Tienen our calls fall into three families. The first comes from the centre: a box gutter behind the cornice that has been leaking into the wall head for months. The second from the districts of the 1960s and 1970s, where the concrete tiles are all reaching the end of their life at the same time. The third from the villages, where a farm or a shed still carries corrugated sheets and the owner wants to know where he stands before a sale.

Pour un devis, la visite à Tienen se fixe en général sous quelques jours ouvrés. Nous partons de Tienen, à 0 km, et nous groupons nos visites par secteur : si un chantier tourne déjà cette semaine à Landen ou Leuven, cela peut aller plus vite. En cas de fuite active, nous venons d’abord bâcher et sécuriser ; le traitement de l’humidité n’est chiffrée qu’ensuite.
By its height and its regularity: a horizontal band eighty centimetres to over a metre high, even along the whole length of the wall, often with salt efflorescence and plaster coming away. If the stain appears after rain and sits higher up, it is penetrating damp.
It works well on solid masonry with an accessible joint. On a cavity wall, in natural stone or filled with rubble, it is trickier, and another approach is more honest. We say so beforehand, rather than injecting and hoping.
