UNDERSTANDING THE IMPACT OF RISING DAMP AND ITS EFFECTS
Many mature properties are subject to rising damp due to the lack of an effective damp proof course (a horizontal layer of water-proof material built into a wall, e.g. slate, bitumen, polythene). Existing damp proof courses can also become bridged by high external ground levels or can, over time break down.
Rising damp can cause serious structural damage if left untreated, leading to crumbling plaster, decaying woodwork, and unsightly staining. Whether you’re a homeowner, landlord, or property manager, early intervention is key. At Anglian Tectonics, our expert team can diagnose the issue and provide lasting solutions to protect your home or business. We also provide other property preservation services including basement water proofing, condensation control, and structural repairs. Contact our team in Canterbury to discuss your property now.

IDENTIFYING AND TREATING RISING DAMP
Most materials do not become visibly damp and do not feel damp to the touch until they are quite significantly so. The common tell-tale signs to look out for are:
-
Visual discolouration to decorations and plaster.
-
Decay to skirting board and adjacent flooring timbers.
-
Loose and salt laden plaster and render.
Our specialist role is to determine the source and extent of the damp within a property, and to pinpoint the exact cause of the rising damp. We assess the extent of the damage and recommend the most effective treatment plan. Typical rising damp solutions include:
-
The installation of a chemical damp proof course.
-
The removal and reinstatement of contaminated plaster.
-
The installation of specialist waterproof coatings and membranes.
