Ground Moisture Threat

Rising damp occurs when moisture from the ground travels up through walls, causing damage to plaster, timber, and internal finishes.

Protect Your Property

If left untreated, it can lead to structural concerns and contribute to rot requiring Wet Rot Treatment or Dry Rot Treatments.

Targeted Solutions

We diagnose the cause accurately and implement long-term corrective measures as part of our wider Structural Dampness services.

What Causes Rising Damp?

Rising damp is often caused by a damaged or bridged damp proof course, allowing moisture to travel upwards through masonry.

Bridged Damp

External ground levels, debris, or internal plaster can bridge protective barriers, allowing moisture penetration.

Older Properties

Period homes without modern damp protection are more vulnerable to rising damp.

Moisture Exposure

Persistent damp conditions can impact nearby timber, increasing the need for Timber Preservation and even Woodworm Treatments.

How We Resolve Rising Damp

We identify whether moisture is genuinely rising damp or related to condensation & mould or penetrating damp before treatment begins.
