» PRODUCTS > FASTFOOT® > RISING DAMP

Rising damp in concrete footings and walls is the wicking of water through concrete and its evaporation into the building. Rising damp causes excess humidity and may lead to dampness and mold. Rising damp does not produce pools of water (as can be the case with waterproof failure of a concrete wall), but a chronic musty smell, growing insidiously stronger when the concrete is exposed to more water.
