Rising damp is a common but often misunderstood issue that affects the lower walls of buildings. It occurs when moisture from the ground travels up through porous building materials like bricks and mortar. Just like a sponge absorbs water, your walls can soak up ground moisture, causing damage over time if left untreated.
At A D C Ltd, we specialise in diagnosing and treating rising damp, helping property owners across the South West protect their homes and investments from moisture-related decay.
WHAT IS
RISING DAMP?
SIGNS YOU MAY HAVE RISING DAMP
Early identification is key to preventing structural damage and expensive repairs. Some of the most common signs of rising damp include:
​
-
Tidemarks or damp staining on lower walls
-
Peeling or bubbling wallpaper and flaking paint
-
Damaged skirting boards or decaying timbers
-
White, powdery salt deposits on walls or plaster
​
Our experienced surveyors can distinguish between rising damp and other forms of moisture ingress such as penetrating damp or condensation, ensuring you get the correct treatment the first time.
