Condensation and penetrating damp are particularly common due to coastal humidity and older property construction. Rising damp also appears frequently in Victorian and early 20th century homes.
Signs include peeling paint, damp patches that rise from the skirting board, salt deposits on walls and crumbling plaster. A professional survey is the best way to confirm the cause.
If left untreated, damp can lead to mould growth, timber decay and damage to internal walls. It can also affect indoor air quality. Early treatment prevents further issues and health risks.
Treatment time depends on the severity and size of the affected area. Most residential damp proofing work takes between one and three days following the survey.
