I have a problem with damp on an internal wall and I'm baffled about where it coming from.
The wall is totally internal - doesn't have contact with an outside wall. There is a radiator against it on one side, but the pipework there is all dry.
It seems the floors are solid and probably originally quarry tiled (its as 1880's build), at least I know the floor one side is quarry tiled, dont know about the other as its covered in laminate.
Even more confusing is the fact that there are air bricks, which are placed such that they would lead to underneath the solid floor. What could the reason be for these airbricks? If they were blocked with a century and a bit of dust and cobwebs, could this cause internal damp?
Thanks.
