What is damp proofing?

This is simply a term used to describe any method that will protect a structure from excess moisture. Keeping moisture out of your home is one of the most effective ways to keep it warm and comfortable. 

Methods could include a damp proof course, which helps to stop rising damp by creating an impermeable barrier in your cavity walls. We can also implement basement tanking in below ground rooms to help deal with average or higher levels of water ingress. 

We also advise Godstone homeowners on how their everyday habits could be leading to excess moisture buildup in their homes.

Spotting the signs of damp

To help protect your property, it’s helpful to be well-versed in the common signs of damp so you can take swift action to stop it from spreading. You’ll often need to use all of your senses to detect dampness, as it can take some time before the damage caused by damp is visible. It’s often an earthy or musty smell that is the first sign of dampness.

You might also notice mould building up on cold surfaces and in areas where there is less air circulation. Further signs could include:

  • Damp or peeling wallpaper
  • Blistered paintwork
  • Warped and soft floorboards
  • Darker patches on the walls, ceiling or floors
  • Excess moisture on windows
  • Walls that feel cold to the touch

If you think you’ve noticed any of these signs of damp in your home, don’t ignore the problem. The longer you leave it, the worse the issue will become. Get in touch with our team to find out how we can help.
