Rising damp


Rising damp is commonly found in the walls of your property, it can be easily identified as it causes wet patches at the bottom of the affected walls. Rising damp is caused by the ingress of ground water soaking up into the masonry and plaster work. Normally this is caused by a breakdown of the original damp proof course but can be associated with an elevated external ground level.


An elevated external ground level can attributed to a number of things such as the construction of patios that raise the ground level above the original damp proof course.

Plastering and Rendering

To treat rising damp in a wall effectively, there are certain procedures that have to be taken. The first step is to remove the damp plaster work normally up to 1 meter high.


The next step is to treat the wall by chemical injection; this is to prevent the damp from rising from the ground up into the masonry work.


We then render the wall with a traditional sand and cement render that contains a waterproofing additive. We then re-skim the affected area with a finishing plaster ready for redecoration.
