If left unchecked it will rot any floor joists and other interior timber it comes into contact with, culminating in the development of wet rot or dry rot if conditions of lack of ventilation allow.

The following will contribute and develop rising dampness in buildings:

• Blocked or defective rain water goods (guttering).
• High ground levels, new drive ways, paths or tarmac bridging the DPC.
• Defective pointing, porous brickwork, spauling bricks.
• Faulty or defective flashing on roofs or extensions.
• Cracked or Missing roof tiles or slates.
• Internal defects in cavity walls.
• Cracked or Defective window sills.
• Internal chimney defects- where a fireplace has been blocked in.
