Prevent Rising Damp
The most common symptom of rising damp is the appearance of damp lines on the interior walls of a building. It is also common that this may cause the damp to spread to the skirting boards. The damp found in the ground is raised by the capillaries inside the walls of the building which helps the damp spread to the walls.
Another issue with rising damp is that things can appear much worse on the inside of the wall, which is why a thorougher survey is needed to identify the extent of the damage.
