For centuries, North Kent has been a pioneer in timber preservation and damp control. The historic Medway region, dating back to the late 1700s, was home to some of the earliest advancements in damp-proofing. Along the Chatham Dockyard riverfront, buildings were fortified with early damp control methods that became the foundation for a resilient, lasting industry. Today, Rochester Building and Damp proudly carries forward this tradition, offering state-of-the-art damp and timber treatment solutions tailored to the unique needs of Kent’s heritage and modern properties.
