The room has been papered which is potentially misleading me to think it’s rising damp, as the moisture is travelling up wallpaper.
However, it’s really inconsistent when looking at the levels.
I removed the skirting and to my surprise it wasn’t damp or rotten, which leads me to believe the gypsum has been layed on below the DPC.
The room has a dpm on the concrete floor (FYI).
There is however a damp patch/salt to the side of the chimney breast.
Any thoughts? Shall I drill and inject dryzone cream.
The room is going to be a kitchen so ideally, I was going to sand and cement.
