Moisture in the cellar can have several origins, and it's crucial to identify the exact cause in order to apply a suitable solution. Protecting the integrity of your cellar also means ensuring the solidity of your entire home.

Moisture in a cellar can have several causes: lack of ventilation, water infiltration, deterioration of pipes or rising damp. Rising damp results from the capillary rise of water in the soil through building materials. Cellars, which are in direct contact with the ground, are particularly vulnerable to this phenomenon. What's more, inadequate drainage around the house can cause water to accumulate near the foundations, accentuating infiltration. Condensation is also a frequent problem: it occurs when humid air meets cold surfaces, such as cellar walls or floors.
Over the long term, dampness in the cellar can lead to serious damage, endangering buildings, material assets and occupants' health. It alters building materials such as wood, concrete, bricks and plaster, causing wood to rot, masonry structures to erode and wall coverings to deteriorate. In addition to visible damage, dampness promotes the growth of mould and unpleasant odours, which can affect indoor air quality.
