Rising Damp
Treat rising damp at source — eliminating salt staining, peeling paint, and musty odours for good.
Rising damp occurs when moisture from the ground travels upward through masonry by capillary action. This typically happens when the damp-proof course (DPC) is missing, damaged, or no longer effective.
At AP Damp Solutions Ltd, we focus on identifying and correcting the true causes of rising damp, including:
Failed or deteriorated damp-proof course
Bridging of the DPC due to high external ground levels or internal plaster
Blocked or compromised masonry allowing moisture to track above the DPC
By resolving these underlying issues first, we ensure the problem is properly controlled before carrying out any remedial work.
Our approach is straightforward — fix the cause, then restore the damage — delivering a long-lasting, reliable solution you can trust.
