Damp Issues

Damp is a common issue and can be found in some form in most old buildings. Inadequate heating and ventilation can lead to condensation and rising damp, as humidity cannot evaporate from the walls as it was designed to. Plenty can be done to improve damp issues through better ventilation and fixing plumbing or structural problems that are causing leaks.

However, when damp issues become serious they can lead to expensive structural damage. Peeling wallpaper or bubbling plaster can be early signs, whilst advanced cases of damp can result in mould, rot or even dry rot if left untreated.
