Hi All I have recently moved into an 1830s house which has a number of walls affected by damp. I am sure the causes of the problem is distinct for each area (i.e. in different parts of the house - so there is not just one cause). My question is who should I call to sort out this problem? Would a general builder have the know how to locate the problem? Or is there some kind of trade which specialises in finding the causes of damp and fixing them? Sorry to ask such a basic question, but I really am a novice at this sort of thing. Many thanks Chris ps. I am not dealing with rising damp - since the problems are on upper floors - so I guess it is leaking plumbing or drainage.
