What causes damp on internal walls?
There are several possible causes for damp on the internal walls of your home – but in most cases this is either caused by condensation, rising damp or penetrating damp. Rising damp could only be the cause if the damp is on the ground floor walls. Penetrating damp is where water enters your home through the external brick. Identifying the type of damp you have in your home will allow you to choose the best cause of action – but in any circumstance, if you don’t know how to identify or treat damp effectively, you should reach out to an expert.
What is damp proofing?
Damp proofing is the process of addressing the problem of moisture getting into your home – whether this be caused by condensation, rising damp or penetrating damp. Generally speaking, damp proofing services usually involve the installation of a damp proof course to the walls of your property.

This depends on the type of damp and also the severity of your particular case. Smaller jobs may take 1-2 days; bigger damp proof courses could take up to a week to complete. For a better estimate as to how long your damp proof course would take, feel free to contact our expert team.

What Is Rising Damp?
Rising damp is a common issue in older properties across the UK. It occurs when moisture from the ground travels upwards through a building’s porous walls and floors via capillary action. This can lead to visible damage, such as peeling wallpaper and bubbling plaster, and pose health risks due to mould and mildew.

What Is Penetrating Damp?
Penetrating damp occurs when water seeps through external walls. This can happen due to damaged brickwork, faulty gutters, or poor waterproofing. If you’ve noticed damp patches that worsen after rainfall, peeling wallpaper, or cold, damp walls, your property may be at risk.
