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.
