Rising Damp

Rising damp is a serious issue and can cause major structural problems to your home. If rising damp not treated, it can damage the outer appearance of the building and create problems such as paint and plaster deterioration.

Homes with a timber ground floor may also experience issues such as wood rot, pest infestation and odours.

Any moisture that enters from the subfloor into your home may also result in the development of mould and mildew. This can cause serious health issues such as asthma, allergies, sinus problems and respiratory infections.

Rising damp is the act of water moving through building materials that come in contact with the ground.

Our Solution

Doctor Damp can specially design and install a subfloor ventilation system to solve your rising damp problem.

The consultants and technicians at Doctor Damp have been expertly trained in how to design a subfloor ventilation system that can drastically reduce rising damp.

The Doctor Damp solution uses various fans and ducts to extract the damp air, creating a properly vented subfloor space. This will reduce the amount of moisture accumulating in the subfloor area, which in turn will prevent the development of mould and nasty odours entering the home.

The benefits of eliminating rising damp include:

Stopping the growth of mould or fungi in timber and wall surfaces
Sustaining the buildings’ structure and appearance

The technicians at Doctor Damp are qualified to install and service subfloor ventilation systems that eliminate ground moisture from under raised floors, this is the type of moisture that would make its way into the home and create material problems as well as health issues for your family.

A well-designed sub-floor ventilation system can reduce rising damp from underfloor spaces.
Excess moisture is extracted from the sub-floor space and out of the home, reducing chances of rising damp occurring.
