Rising damp: a common problem

Rising damp is a moisture problem that often occurs in buildings without a water barrier, or when the water barrier layer no longer stops rising damp. This is because bricks have a capillary action: they absorb soil moisture and this causes numerous problems indoors: paint and plaster coming loose, deposits of salts, unsightly moisture spots on the wall, a musty smell in the house ... There are no quick or superficial ways to solve this moisture problem in the long run. Repair the finish coat? A new lick of paint? This will only be effective in the short term.

The solution: injecting damp walls

Our moisture specialists in Retier roll up their sleeves to combat rising damp. In doing so, we resolutely opt for an effective long-term solution by injecting damp walls. We remove the finishing coat, drill small holes close to the floor surface and inject our proprietary DryPlan injection gel. The gel forms a horizontal barrier and gives rising moisture no chance. Finished? We finish with a peak finish and leave everything clean.

Basement moisture problems

The basement is a vulnerable place for moisture problems Naturally, soil moisture most easily enters rooms that are located underground. In that case, basement waterproofing is essential. In addition, moisture problems in the basement are often caused by condensation. Basement walls can withstand water pressure, but the pressure of water vapor sometimes becomes too much for them. This is not an infiltration problem, as walls must be sufficiently vapor permeable. Is moisture going to accumulate? Then good ventilation is necessary to avoid moisture problems. In the absence of ventilation, the drops of water vapor accumulate and start to condense. This abundance of water seeps down from the walls, giving you water in your basement.
