Rising damp occurs when groundwater moves upward through porous building materials. Signs include tide marks on walls, damaged plaster, and salt deposits. This typically affects ground floor walls up to 1 meter in height. Penetrating damp is caused by water leaking through walls, often due to structural issues like damaged guttering, cracked rendering, or defective pointing.

It typically appears as localised damp patches that worsen during rainfall. Condensation occurs when warm, moisture-laden air comes into contact with cold surfaces. It’s particularly common in kitchens, bathrooms, and poorly ventilated spaces, often leading to black mold growth and musty odors.
