His background in geochemistry has given him a unique set of skills when applied to understanding the reasons for damp problems in old buildings. He has extensive knowledge of chemistry and the mechanisms by which stone and other building materials deteriorate and oxidise under the influence of water and air.
Add to this experience in the movement of metallic ions through rock (essentially the formation of orebodies) - and he has a very unusual viewpoint of the real reasons for, and solutions to damp issues in old buildings.
He is becoming well known for his constant campaign against the Timber and Damp Proofing industry, and their fraudulent practises which cost an unsuspecting public many millions of pounds each year.
Our client, John, wanted help with this restoration. Long telephone calls became the order of the day and the project was achieved over a couple of years, finishing in early 2015, although more work is planned.
