How Do I Know If I Have A Rising Damp Problem?

There are several telltale signs that your home or place of business has a rising damp problem. These can include:

Stains on the wall, ceiling, or skirting boards.
Peeling of interior paint or wallpaper.
Deterioration of plaster on your walls.
Musty smell in the property.

These could be signs of a rising damp penetration. If left untreated the issue will only get worse. This could result in damage to internal walls, black mould and wet rot to timbers. Ultimately resulting in structural damage to the property.

We Are Damp Proofing Specialists

Rising damp occurs when moisture enters a property usually through external walls at ground floor level. The moisture then rises through the property via a capillary attraction. Water can rise up to a height of 1.5 metres and leave behind salt deposits. Salt contaminated walls can then result in issues within the interior of your property.

Rising Damp Treatments Chesterfield

Firstly, our team of damp proofing specialists will conduct a thorough inspection at ground level in your property. This will help to identify any rising damp problems you may be facing. Then we will advise on the best course of action thereafter, this might include:

Damp Proof Course Installation

We can install a damp proof course (DPC) This DPC will help to prevent moisture from rising further up the walls. A well installed DPC can stop the progression of rising damp.

Chemical Damp Proofing

Utilising advanced chemical solutions, we can treat affected areas with damp proofing injections. This will create a barrier against moisture and safeguard your walls to ensure long-term protection.

Ventilation Solutions

Improving ventilation in affected areas can help to prevent moisture buildup. The specialist damp proofing team at AMPM can advise and install appropriate ventilation systems. This will help to enhance airflow and reduce humidity levels within the property.

Replastering & Repairs
