Does rising damp exist?
There are people that claim that rising damp does not exist at all. We do not agree, but do find cases of pure rising damp quite rare. What is certain is that there is a whole industry in the UK focused on rising damp which is not justified, as the fact is that it is quite rare. It is believed that many people have a chemical damp proof course installed in cases where it is highly disputable that rising damp was the problem.
