What is Rising Damp?

Rising damp occurs when moisture from the ground travels up through the masonry of walls by capillary action — typically because the original damp proof course (DPC) has failed, been bridged or was never installed. This moisture often carries salts with it, which deposit in the wall and can continue to attract moisture unless properly treated.
