Damp Proofing | A Guide from Peter Cox | Damp Specialists

Dehumidifiers draw moisture out of the air, so can be particularly useful if you often dry clothes inside the house – another common source of excess humidity. Dehumidifiers can also help if you notice moisture in the air from every day activities such as showering and cooking - all of which can lead to high levels of humidity. Each needs to be treated in different ways, and damp repair costs can vary dramatically, so it's important to know what type of damp is affecting your home before you try to get it fixed. Put simply, if damp problems are left to develop and worsen they can cause serious damage to your property. For this reason, we would always recommend that any damp proofing contractor you use is experienced and qualified for the job. If there's a problem with an existing damp-proof course (DPC) in your home which is causing the damp, then your landlord is likely to be responsible for repairing it.Fixing penetrating damp can be easy and cheap to do yourself. You’ll need to identify the issue first, then decide if you need professional help.

Warm spell on the way - Met Office

A telltale sign that your damp is not rising damp is if the damp patches are higher up than 1 metre on your wall and are unevenly distributed, in which case you may be suffering from penetrating dampness instead. With modern cars, a simple jump-start, if it is mishandled, can 'fry' the battery’s control unit and render the car useless. Met Office Chief Meteorologist Matthew Lehnert said: “There is a Met Office rain warning in force for northern England and northern Wales today as a low pressure system eastwards moves across the country. Within the warning area, many places will see 20-30mm of rain, with a few isolated spots possibly seeing around 60-80mm of rain over the course of the warning.

In some cases, a private landlord may decide to evict a tenant rather than do repair work. Make sure you know whether you're at risk of eviction before taking action. Regulations making them compulsory in new houses came into force in 1875, so houses built before then probably won't have one. You may be able to spot a damp-proof course by looking for a thin strip near the bottom of the external wall. You'll need to get an expert to confirm this and to try to ascertain whether there is also a damp-proof membrane. Your landlord is usually responsible for repairing the problem when they become aware of it - so make sure you report the problem to them straight away.

We are likely to see the warmest weather on Friday and Saturday, with low to mid 20s widely and a peak of 29C most probable in the southeast; at this stage the odd 30 Celsius here on Friday cannot be ruled out. A frontal system arriving into the west and southwest later on Friday, which could be preceded by thunderstorms, does complicate matters somewhat; after a very muggy night in the southeast overnight into Saturday.”

Remember that your damp problem may not necessarily be caused by rising damp as there may be another source of water that you are not aware of. You also have different options for your salt neutraliser. You can either paint it directly onto the wall, replaster using a plaster that contains salt neutraliser already or add your salt neutraliser to your plaster mix. I replaced distributor cap and rotor arm but didn't replace the leads as they weren't available at the time. Read your DPC liquid/cream’s specific instructions to decide this and your drilling pattern, as well as whether your wall needs to be damp for the liquid/cream to work The rising damp could also be coming in from a neighbour’s property if they don’t have a DPC or their DPC is higher up than yours, allowing the damp to travel around your DPC.
