Penetrating Damp Remedies

Penetrating damp occurs when water infiltrates your property through external defects or internal issues, resulting in damage to your walls, ceilings, and furnishings. To effectively combat penetrating damp, it’s crucial to identify the source of water ingress and implement appropriate repairs. Our qualified damp proofing surveyor can assess your property to determine the cause of the dampness and the extent of required repairs.

Once the source of the dampness is identified, our damp proofing specialists will remove the affected material and apply a physical waterproofing membrane to expedite the drying process. Furthermore, external issues must be addressed, which may involve coating the exterior wall with a chemical water repellent to ensure water remains outside your property, protecting your living space from further damage. Prompt and effective management of penetrating damp is instrumental in preserving your home’s structural integrity and comfort.

Penetrating Damp FAQ's

What is penetrating damp?

Penetrating damp is the process of exterior moisture settling in interior areas of your property. Although most building materials are porous, any failing wall, roof or substructure will invite water ingress and cause damage to your property.

Signs of penetrating damp typically include:
• Damp stains on walls and ceilings
• Stale and musty smells
• Cracked and crumbling plaster
• Mould growth on damp surfaces
• Rotten and discoloured timber fixings

Penetrating damp is typically caused by defects in a property, such as slipped roof tiles, broken guttering, cracked external walls or faulty substructures. To accurately diagnose the cause of penetrating damp, it’s advisable to arrange a site survey with a specialist.
To fix penetrating damp in your property, it’s important to establish and rectify what’s causing the problem. With most properties, the points of water ingress stem from defective pointing, porous brickwork, cracks in render and broken guttering.
Like any form of water ingress, penetrating damp has the potential to cause serious damage to your health and property. If you spot any signs of moisture damage in your home, it’s important you take immediate action.
