What damp proofing does — and doesn’t
Damp proofing is the remedial work once the cause is known: a damp-proof course injected or replaced, tanking or membranes for below-ground walls, or fixing the water source — a gutter, render or flashing — so it stops entering the wall. In Sunderland, as elsewhere, the most common “damp” is condensation, which no damp-proof course will fix.
So ask any specialist for the survey findings in writing before agreeing a treatment, and check whether they are CSRT-qualified or PCA members.

- What kind of damp problems are common in Sunderland?
- Sunderland has a significant stock of ex-council housing now let privately, alongside Victorian terraces built near the city's former shipyards. Lower average rents in the North East have historically reduced landlord investment in fabric improvement, a recognised contributor to above-average damp rates in the private rented sector. The council proactively identifies at-risk properties using building age, EPC rating and repair condition.
- Where can Sunderland tenants report damp and mould to the council?
- Tenants and landlords in Sunderland can report unresolved damp and mould directly to the council through its damp and mould page.Source: Sunderland council damp and mould reporting page ↗
