Types of Damp Problems
Rising damp is one of the most common structural integrity problems experienced by home and business owners. Accompanied by hygroscopic ground salts like chlorides and nitrates, dampness can exist in both plaster and timber walls. Depending on severity, rising damp and penetrating damp can quickly deteriorate and seriously damage internal plaster wall quality.
Causes of Damp
Dampness can be caused by a range of factors, including the absence or failing damp proofing courses, results of bridging, low quality re-plastering, failed rainwater disposal systems, leaking pipes, condensation and more. At Cavilock, we utilise our experience and expertise to accurately survey and diagnose the source of dampness, resolving the problem area in order to preserve and protect your property.
