Rising damp occurs when ground moisture moves through a wall by capillary action. It can leave staining, salt deposits, crumbling plaster, mould growth, and damage around skirting boards. These symptoms can have more than one cause, so Damplast begins with a damp survey and moisture assessment for Balham, SW12 properties. Once the source and extent of the issue are understood, we can recommend a suitable combination of chemical damp proof course installation, damp proof membranes or tanking, followed by replastering where the internal finish has been affected.
