Rising and Penetrating Damp Solutions in Lancashire,
Manchester, Greater Merseyside and Cheshire

Damp can cause significant internal damage to a property. The main cause of damp is water and moisture penetrating through the walls of a property either from the outside of the building or by rising up from the base of the wall.

Allkare Property Care Protect Your Property from Damp

There are many ways to identify if your property is suffering from Rising Damp or Penetrating Damp, which are the two most common damp problems that can affect any property. Condensation can also pose significant problems in some properties, but there are ways to resolve condensation problems.

What Causes Rising Damp?

Rising Damp usually occurs when there is a lack of, or a failure in the damp proof course.

Bridging of the damp proof treatment course by internal plaster / external render or by high ground levels can also cause rising damp.

Eliminate any other causes, such as condensation, that could be mistaken for rising damp

Assess the extent of the dampness and the need for re-plastering

Provide the most cost-effective solution to your damp problem

Check the condition of floor timbers for possible decay

Lateral Penetrating Damp - Caused when the external ground, abutting the wall is above internal floor level
