Damp proofing involves the control and elimination of moisture that has accumulated in the floors and walls in the interior of a home or building as a way to preserve the property. Their damp proofing experts have years of experience in fixing damp problems in a particular property. They have the knowledge and the skills to offer solutions for the four main kinds of damp that can cause serious damage to homes. These are: rising damp, condensation, penetrating damp, and underground water ingress.
Rising damp is typically the result of groundwater that is rising through capillaries in the masonry of a home or building. This is a common problem, especially in older buildings because new buildings are now constructed with damp-proof course (DPC). However, it is also important to note that rising damp may still occur in newer buildings as a result of a faulty or non-existent DPC. In such cases, a DPC will have to be installed to stop the rising damp.
Penetrating damp is the result of water getting into the building or property via an external wall. This is primarily due to water entering through a defect in the home or property or when the external stone walls or bricks have deteriorated over time such that they have become porous. This kind of damp is the most common cause of moisture inside a property.
Damp resulting from condensation happens when damp air in the home comes in contact with cold walls, mirrors, windows, etc. This kind of damp may also be found in the corner of rooms and behind and inside furniture. Poor ventilation in the home is frequently the cause of this kind of damp.
