The Property Care Association (PCA), a national trade organisation in the UK, conducted a renowned awards ceremony where RTC Group, a specialist in property preservation, was honoured twice.

RTC, a Blackpool-based company, received the Contractor of the Year award in the Damp and Timber award category for large companies based on the results of its yearly audit.

The business also took first place in the Outstanding Client Service category after showing customer reviews and testimonials.

RTC specialises in dry rot, wet rot, woodworm management, structural waterproofing, flood remediation, and many other facets of building preservation and specialised property care.

The business uses a “customer service checklist” as well as a “customer journey” video series to help clients understand the services they require and what to anticipate at each step of the process.

This is the second time RTC has received the distinguished honour; they were the happy beneficiaries of the same award in 2020. The Contractor of the Year awards was based on the audits of PCA members.

The entries for the Outstanding Customer Service Award were evaluated by a panel of knowledgeable judges.

The judges stated that the core values of this organisation are continuous improvement and “performing what we say we will do.” A resounding success—this is how to do it!

The PCA presented a number of awards to its members’ companies and individuals that demonstrated the utmost professionalism and expertise.

Safeguard (Europe) Ltd sponsored the Contractor of the Year (Damp & Timber) for large organisations, while Edincare Pumps sponsored the award for Outstanding Customer Service.

At a ceremony held at The Slate at the University of Warwick, the awards were given to the RTC team.

“Our members tackle a range of challenges that can affect people’s homes and companies, structures of national importance, or big infrastructure,” said Steve Hodgson, Chief Executive of the PCA.

“Their talent and abilities are highly recognised, and the 2022 Best Practice Awards provide us a chance to recognise the knowledge and experience of our members.

“I thank these honours for recognising RTC’s professionalism and dedication to providing top-notch service.”

Stormdry: External Waterproofing

A ground-breaking substance called “Stormdry” was created by Safeguard Europe and independently tested by the University of Portsmouth to stop water from penetrating masonry. For brick and stone walls, it is a colourless, permeable water repellent treatment.

All brick walls retain water when it rains and releases it when the weather is dry. This is a typical function of a wall and shouldn’t be problematic or do any harm. However, in continuous rainstorms, walls may become wet and the building may experience permeating dampness. This is especially important regarding solid walls, improperly installed cavity wall insulation or situations where it shouldn’t have been installed in the first place.
Buildings with solid walls lose more heat through them when they are wet because masonry loses thermal efficiency when it becomes wet compared to when it is dry.

Stormdry is unique in that it penetrates deeply into the masonry before curing to form a water-repellent barrier that protects against penetrating dampness and increases the thermal efficiency of masonry by keeping it dry. Stormdry is applied as a cream in a single layer. Although it will even fill in tiny cracks (0.3 mm or smaller), major cracks should always be corrected, and mortar pointing needs to be in good condition.
