Occurs when water penetrates through walls, roofs, or around windows. Often caused by damaged pointing, cracked render, or roof defects.
Solution: Repair of external defects, repointing, render repairs, and waterproof coatings
Condensation
The most common form of damp, caused by excess moisture in the air condensing on cold surfaces. Can lead to mould growth and poor air quality.
