Tassie Trade Services Rising Damp Treatment

Rising damp or structural dampness is the presence of unwanted moisture in building structures. Some of the main causes of rising damp are:
Insufficient sub-floor ventilation
Poor drainage
Damaged gutters and pipes
Damaged damp-proof course (DPC)

Concerned that rising damp may be affecting your property? Here are the tell-tale signs of rising damp to watch out for:
Damp patches that start at the base of your wall that’s gradually moving upwards
Rotting plaster and skirting boards
Peeling paint or wallpaper
Yellow or brown tide staining on the wall
Floor covers such as carpet and vinyl are lifting and have damp patches.
Presence of moulds on walls
