Rising Damp Treatment in the North East
Protect Your Property with Expert Damp Proofing Solutions
Rising damp is a common yet serious issue affecting properties across the North East. It occurs when moisture from the ground travels upward through the walls by capillary action, leading to unsightly damage and potential structural concerns. At Northern Remedials, we specialise in diagnosing and treating rising damp to safeguard your home or business.
Understanding Rising Damp
Rising damp can manifest through various signs, including:
Tide marks or staining on walls
Peeling wallpaper or blistering paint
Damp or musty odours
Deterioration of plaster and skirting boards
Presence of mould or mildew
If left untreated, rising damp can lead to timber decay, heat loss, and compromised structural integrity.
