Types of damp problems

Rising damp is one of the most common structural integrity problems experienced by home and business owners. Accompanied by hygroscopic ground salts like chlorides and nitrates, dampness can exist in both plaster and timber walls. Depending on severity, rising damp and penetrating damp can quickly deteriorate and seriously damage internal plaster wall quality.
