What Not to Do During Building Repairs

✕Don't start repairs before the structure is verified dry — trapped moisture causes coating failure and mould

✕Don't cover wet or damp materials with new plasterboard or flooring — it traps moisture and causes future failure

✕Don't skip the make-safe phase — unsecured properties are vulnerable to further damage and weather ingress

✕Don't use unlicensed trades for restoration work — insurance may not cover non-compliant repairs

✕Don't paint over water stains without sealing — stains will bleed through and indicate unresolved moisture

✕Don't rush structural repairs without documented assessment — underlying damage may be missed
