What is Rising Damp?

Rising damp is the upward movement of groundwater into the walls of a building through capillary action. It typically occurs when there is no damp-proof course (DPC) installed, or when the DPC is damaged or ineffective.

Signs of Rising Damp:

✔ Tide marks and damp stains on interior walls
✔ Flaky or bubbling paint and plaster
✔ A musty, damp smell indoors
✔ Crumbling bricks or mortar
✔ Timber decay in skirting boards or floors

Why You Should Act Fast

Leaving rising damp untreated can cause:

✅ Structural damage to brickwork and foundations
✅ Timber rot and pest infestation
✅ Dangerous mould growth affecting your health
✅ Decreased property value

Rising damp is more than a cosmetic issue—it’s a serious moisture problem that requires expert treatment.
