PONTEFRACT INSULATION LTD
Floor Damage Can’t Be Ignored
Many older properties in Pontefract and the surrounding areas still have suspended timber floors — which are vulnerable to decay from rising damp, dry rot or poor ventilation. Meanwhile, concrete floors can crack, lift or fail when moisture penetrates or insulation is lacking.
If your flooring feels soft, uneven or damp, it’s time to call in a specialist.
Whether you’re preparing to sell, renovating an older property or simply want peace of mind about your home’s condition — we’re here to help.
Common Problems We Fix
- Damp or rotten floorboards
- Spongy or springy timber flooring
- Collapsed joists or subfloor supports
- Cracked or lifting concrete floors
- Damp underlay or visible mould
- Poor insulation and cold surfaces
We’ll inspect your floor, assess the cause, and carry out a full replacement using treated timber or modern concrete systems.
