House damp advice

Oct 21, 2004 3 Replies

Does anyone know a damp consultant or trustworthy firm that can give me best advice on treating damp in a solid floor? We wanted to lay a laminate floor but there's damp...



Based in London.



Thanks

all depends on age and type of construction of house. Avoid so called damp experts!

Well yes - it's an 1840s Victorian semi with a sort of semi basement ground floor. It's worst in the hall and front room. Clearly it's not the original floor - it's concrete and at least it's flat. After taking up the old carpets we've been advised to let to dry for a week and see if it's showing high readings. My guess is it will so if we are avoiding damp experts what do we do?
