Is this weather causing rising damp in my property ?
The short answer is yes! This heavy consistent rain is leaving more water in the ground which your foundations and bricks are soaking up and it’s rising through your home through capillary action leaving staining on low parts of your ground floor. As a rule of thumb rising damp typically doesn’t rise higher than 600mm from ground level, there can be exception tho and this may vary. We can offer advice and guidance on ways to prevent and control any type of dampness in your home.
