Dampness on the walls of construction

If you notice dampness on the walls of the

house already, it may be too late.

If you see any wet part on the roof or the surrounding walls, it means that there is a problem in

the water line or sewage line of the house. And its effect appearing on any wall of the house

means that you are already too late to take action, the problem has become serious. But

hope is not lost. Finding the cause of the problem and solving it can prevent future damage.

Location of Dampness.

of the wet patch If the wet patch is on the roof, wall or any corner, it is probably becaus

e there is a problem with the water line in the house, it is blocked and the water is

leaking in that area. Due to the continuous seepage of that water on one side of

he wall, wet patches are also forming on the other side of the wall.

If the floor has these wet spots, it may be due to moisture from the subfloor.

This can also happen if there is a problem with a water line under the floor.

Again, if the house is damp or it is not understood from where it started,

then it should be understood that excess moisture has been created inside the house.

This is especially the case during the rainy season when the room does

ot have adequate light and ventilation.

You can block cracks in walls or water lines with 'sealant', 'patty' or 'grout'.

Water-proofing paint for 'water-proofing coating' should be used on the outer

walls of the house, so that rain or a humid environment can not dampen

the inside of the house.

A 'damp proof course' should be used during floor construction to prevent

moisture from reaching the floor of the house.

This layer is between the soil and the floor masonry, which prevents soil

moisture from reaching the floor. Again, you can use silicon-based paint

on the walls of the inner part of the house, which has waterproof properties.

Ways to Control Fungal Infection

Due to the damp weather of the monsoon season, dark colored

fungal patches are often seen forming on the walls of the house.

However, not all fungal infections turn black.

Apart from the walls, fungal infections occur in various places that people

cannot see with the naked eye. This stain occurs in moist and damp

nvironments which can be toxic in some cases.

Sometimes it is created on the wall but it is not visible because it is

not visible in black and stained form. 

ignored, this fungal infection can become very toxic. The first sign to look

out for is whether or not bubbles appear in the paint on any part of the wall.

These bubbles are formed when moisture accumulates in the wall paint.

There may even be patches of fungus inside those bubbles.

If there is a fungal attack anywhere in the house, the watery eyes, itching,

cough, cold infection of bleach is effective in removing Fungal stains and

can be removed by cleaning walls, floors, toilets, carpets etc. with bleach.

Rubbing the infected area with borax or vinegar will also work. An

'exhaust fan' should be used in the toilet to avoid fungal infection.

If there is a water 'leak' anywhere in the kitchen and toilet

, it should be repaired quickly. 

Light and air movement

It is very important to have adequate light and air movement

inside the house to eliminate the damp environment.

'Cross ventilation' is most useful in reducing humidity in the

room. And not only during the rainy season, the flow of light and air

is needed throughout the year, in all seasons. So the doors and

windows of the house should be kept open as much as possible.
