How can I tell from my plaster that I have a moisture problem?

There are several ways you can recognize a moisture problem. In fact, there are a number of situations:

Is it a wall with only plaster? If so, color differences in the plaster may indicate a moisture problem. White salt circles or damp spots on the wall also indicate moisture.

Is the damp wall painted or wallpapered? Then the paint peels off or the wallpaper comes loose. In other cases, the plaster itself comes loose or cracks appear.

Although the symptoms vary, you will quickly notice that there is a problem with that wall.

What should I do if my plaster is coming loose?

First and foremost, what you should not do is simply repaint, re-hang or re-plaster the wall without addressing the problem at its root. By re-plastering the wall, the problem may be out of sight, but not out of mind. In other words, it does not solve the problem.

It is important to have a expert address to know exactly what the problem is and what needs to be done to solve that problem.

What are the causes of loose plaster?

When the plaster on your wall begins to come loose, it often indicates a moisture problem. Several moisture problems can be responsible for this, and the most common are:

Condensation due to lack of ventilation or from cold bridges,

Penetrating damp

Rising damp.

These problems are all solved in completely different ways. For example, in the case of penetrating damp, the facade is treated to make it water repellent. This is done through facade impregnation or hydrofuge. With rising damp, on the other hand, the walls are injected with a damp-proof gel to block the moisture's path. Condensation, on the other hand, requires a mechanical or non-mechanical ventilation system. ventilation system.

These problems must be solved before we start plastering. Otherwise, the problem will quickly resurface, forcing you to start plastering all over again, with all the attendant cons.
