Signs of damp
4% of the entire housing stock of the United Kingdom suffers from damp in at least one room but damp may not always be obvious to spot in your property. It can appear rapidly after flash flooding or it can be very slow to emerge, in some cases taking several years before a damp problem becomes visible.
Some of the common signs of damp inside a house include:
A damp and musty smell
The appearance of mould or mildew on walls, floors or ceilings
Rising damp, penetrating damp and condensation are the three most common types of damp for residential properties in the UK and each needs a different treatment.
