Timber & Damp Preservation in Bristol & the South West

Heritage Plastercraft provides specialist timber preservation and damp protection services designed to protect buildings from moisture damage and structural deterioration.

Damp problems are common in older properties and can lead to serious issues if left untreated. Excess moisture can weaken walls, damage plasterwork, and cause timber structures to decay over time.

Identifying & resolving damp issues

Our approach focuses on identifying the root cause of damp — rather than simply treating the symptoms — ensuring long-term, effective solutions that protect the building's integrity.

Basement tanking & waterproofing

We also undertake basement tanking, providing reliable waterproofing systems to protect below-ground areas from water ingress. These solutions are designed to keep spaces dry, usable, and structurally sound, even in challenging conditions.

Long-term protection you can trust

Our damp preservation and timber treatment services are carried out using proven methods and high-quality materials. For added peace of mind, all of our damp and timber treatments are backed by a 10-year guarantee.

What our clients say

Damp proofing & tanking

Ralph completed damp proofing and tanking work in our basement and also carried out some plaster repairs. The work was completed efficiently and to a very high standard. He was reliable, knowledgeable and easy to deal with. I would happily recommend Heritage Plastercraft.

Television production

I worked with Ralph Muranda on the television series Atlantis. I brought him in as a mould maker, and he dealt with the unique and sometimes difficult challenges we faced in prop making exceptionally well. He worked quickly and produced some excellent moulds. I have no hesitation in recommending him.

High standard conservation work

Ralph and his team provided a thoroughly professional piece of work. The job was completed quickly, competently, and at a reasonable price. The quality was excellent and Ralph managed the whole process from quotation through to completion efficiently. Our project was in the Bath conservation area and required a high standard of care, which was delivered. It was also a pleasure dealing with Ralph.
