Big news from the Nordic Damp Proofing team – we’ve officially joined the Saints family by sponsoring Southampton FC’s goalkeeper, Alex McCarthy, for the season!
Just like Alex is known for saving goals, we’re known for saving properties from damp. A perfect match, right?
Who is Alex McCarthy?
If you follow the Premier League or Championship, you’ll know the name. Alex McCarthy is a top-class goalkeeper who’s been between the sticks for Southampton FC since 2016.
Here are a few quick facts about Alex:
- Position: Goalkeeper
- Born: Guildford, England
- Joined Southampton: 2016
- Previous clubs: Reading, Crystal Palace, QPR
- Known for: Incredible reflex saves, calm under pressure, and leadership at the back
He’s the kind of player you want protecting your goal when the opposition is piling on the pressure — and that’s exactly how we see our role when damp, mould, or water damage threatens your home.
Why Did We Choose to Sponsor Alex?
We wanted a partnership that reflects what we do best – protecting, preventing, and preserving.
Just like a goalkeeper defends the net, our team of damp proofing experts defends your property from:
- Rising damp creeping up your walls
- Penetrating damp from leaky brickwork or roof tiles
- Condensation and mould caused by poor ventilation
- Timber decay and rot in structural woodwork
Our motto says it all:
“We Find It. We Treat It. We Stop It Coming Back.”
And that’s exactly what we’ll keep doing – whether it’s on your home’s foundations or from the stands at St Mary’s cheering on Alex.
What Does This Sponsorship Mean for Nordic Damp Proofing?
It’s more than just a logo on a page – it’s about being part of something local, passionate, and community-driven. Southampton FC represents hard work, teamwork, and resilience – values we live by every day.
We’re proud to support a club so close to our service area, working across Southampton, Hampshire, Dorset and beyond.
Plus, it gives us a great reason to shout about what we do in a new way – combining football and damp-proofing (two things you wouldn’t normally see together!).
How Does This Connect to What We Do?
Football fans know that a strong defence wins matches – and that’s exactly our approach when it comes to damp protection.
When damp gets past your defences, it can cause:
- Musty smells and mould growth
- Peeling paint and crumbling plaster
- Structural timber decay
- Health issues from poor indoor air quality
But with the right treatment, those issues can be stopped in their tracks.
If you’ve noticed any signs of damp, get in touch – our Survey & Diagnostic Services can identify the exact cause before it gets worse.
We’re excited to be backing Alex McCarthy and Southampton FC this season. Whether it’s saving goals or saving homes, we’re all about keeping things dry, clean, and protected.
If only every wall had reflexes like Alex – our job would be much easier!
Come on you Saints!
