How do I know if I have rising damp?

Common signs include tide marks on lower walls, flaking paint, crumbling plaster, peeling wallpaper, and white salt deposits. We carry out a proper survey to confirm whether it's rising damp or another moisture issue.

Will rising damp treatment fix damaged plaster as well?

If plaster has been affected by moisture or salt contamination, it often needs treatment or replacement alongside the damp proof coursework. We explain what is salvageable and what should be renewed for a sound finish.

Can you treat rising damp in older properties?

Yes, we treat rising damp in both older and modern properties. Older buildings often need especially careful diagnosis because age, wall construction, and previous repairs can affect how moisture behaves.
