Damp patch on internal wall

Anonymous user - 16/44/2026 - 8:44 AM

There's a damp patch forming on an internal wall near the skirting. Could this be rising damp or a leak?

It could be either. Rising damp tends to leave a tide mark, while a leak is more random. A moisture reading will confirm the source.
