Expert Penetrating Damp Repairs for Dry, Protected Homes
Penetrating damp is often caused by defects in your property’s exterior, allowing rainwater to seep through walls, roofs or other vulnerable areas. Left untreated, it can damage plaster, decoration, insulation and even your home’s structure.
At The Damp and Mould Experts, we don’t just treat the symptoms – we find the source of the problem. Every survey includes a thorough inspection to identify exactly how water is entering your property, allowing us to recommend the most effective, long-term repair.
What Causes Penetrating Damp?
Unlike rising damp, penetrating damp is caused by water entering your property horizontally from the outside. This can happen through damaged brickwork, cracked render, leaking gutters, missing roof tiles, faulty pointing or poorly sealed windows and doors.
Because several different building defects can cause penetrating damp, identifying the source is the key to preventing it from returning.
Signs Your Property May Have Penetrating Damp
Penetrating damp doesn’t always appear in the same place. Common warning signs include:
- Damp patches on internal walls or ceilings
- Water stains that become worse after heavy rain
- Blistering paint or bubbling plaster
- Black mould forming on affected areas
- Damp, musty smells
- Cold, wet walls or ceilings
