Rising damp, a common concern in the United Kingdom, manifests when natural ground moisture infiltrates a building’s dry structure through the capillary action in bricks and mortar. This moisture ascends, affecting the porous construction materials and leaving a visible “tide mark” approximately one meter above the ground. Contact a rising damp specialist today if you think you have this problem.
Identifying the presence of rising damp is crucial for timely intervention by a rising damp specialist. Look out for these telltale signs:
You might notice damp stains on internal walls, forming a distinct tide mark roughly one meter above the ground.
Skirting boards can start to deteriorate and decay due to moisture infiltration.
Salts can become visible in the plaster of internal walls, indicating rising damp issues.
The paint on your walls may start to peel or flake, as a result of the underlying rising damp.
Your wallpaper may become damp and start peeling or bubbling.
The presence of black mould on your walls is often a strong indicator of damp issues.
Unpleasant, musty odours can permeate your property when dampness is present.
If you spot any of these signs, reach out to a rising damp specialist. Our rising damp specialist can implement remedial measures to ensure the structural integrity and safety of your home.
