Basement waterproofing

What is rising damp?

Moisture rising from the ground can promote fungal decay and degenerate internal plaster work. The capillary action of rising damp can be controlled by the installation of a chemical damp proof course. At Cedar Preservation Ltd, we will carry out specialist re-plastering, incorporating a necessary additive, to make sure your home is safe from rising damp.

Visible signs of damp can include tide marks, fungal decay, mould growth or efflorescence. Tidemarks are generally caused by nitrate or chloride deposits, which remain in the wall when the dampness in the wall evaporates. These nitrate or chloride deposits can attract ambient moisture, and will therefore remain damp until removed.
