how to stop damp in concrete shutted homes

Hi there What you need to find out is it rising or penetrating damp or condensation with out more information no advice can be given,although due to construction i wuld imagine its more of a condensation problem which could mean putting thermal boards on the external walls. regards Joseph

Hi , the simple solution is to insulate all the affected walls internally with a thin insulation product (internet will give variants) once this is installed it will prevent a cold surface which is usually the cause , Then re - decorate . The more expensive way is to re-plasterboard affected wall using a foil backed board but glued to the walls NOT dot and dabbed . dampuk.net
