Rising damp.
Resolved properly.
Diagnosis-led rising damp and ventilation solutions for Sydney homes, heritage buildings and strata properties.
What we solve
Permanent answers to persistent moisture.
Damp problems rarely improve by covering the visible damage. We identify the failure, define the right system and complete the remedial work.
Rising Damp
Rising damp is the movement of ground moisture upward through porous brickwork and masonry. Peeling paint, blistering finishes, salt deposits and recurring wall damage are common warning signs.

Ventilation
Poor airflow beneath a building can trap stale, moisture-laden air. A purpose-designed subfloor ventilation system helps extract excessive moisture from the subfloor space.

Diagnostics
Diagnostic testing is an essential part of remedial work. It helps identify how a building element is failing so the repair addresses the cause, not only the visible symptom.

Work that protects what comes next.Clear answers
Damp treatment, explained.
Every property is different, but the first principle is consistent: identify the moisture source before choosing the repair.
What are the signs of rising damp?+
Common signs include recurring peeling paint, blistering finishes, salt deposits, crumbling plaster and moisture near the base of masonry walls.
Does repainting solve a damp wall?+
No. Repainting covers the visible symptom temporarily. The moisture source and salt contamination need to be diagnosed and treated.
Do you work on heritage and strata properties?+
Yes. BRW Remedial works on residential, heritage and body-corporate properties across Sydney.
Why is diagnostic testing important?+
Testing helps identify the moisture source before an appropriate damp-remediation scope is recommended.
