  • Oh man, that sounds like a nightmare. I hope you get it all sorted soon and get to move in to your new place without further complications.

    Has anyone asked for a reduction in price due to damp in the structures? I'm not from the UK and admittedly quite hysterical about damp. We're going to get contractors to check the damage and evaluate how much it would cost to fix. The husband and his family don't seem too concerned about it :D

    If yours is an older property beware the people touting injection damp proof courses, "tanking" walls with fresh impermeable membranes locking the old moisture in etc etc
    From my expert internet researchings it appears to just make things a helluvah lot worse

    Post some pictures

    Evennfor modern properties, they're probably bollocks.

    Damp will probably be due to something having failed / been changed / not supposed to be there.
