Common Damp Issues in Dulwich
Rising damp in period walls
Dulwich's Georgian and Victorian walls show rising damp where the DPC is absent, failed, or bridged.
Cellar and sub-floor moisture
Larger houses with cellars and suspended timber floors suffer ground moisture and ventilation problems that can also affect floor timbers.
Condensation in extended homes
Extended and converted family homes commonly develop condensation and mould where ventilation is inadequate.
