I'm having my lounge redecorated (last done 8/9 years ago). For as long as I can remember there's been some traces of damp pattern near skirting boards, but nothing more problematic than that. My decorator has recommended to have it investigated and fixed - he attaches a higher importance to it than perhaps I have had. The lounge has a concrete floor and is a 1950s semi. The majority of the lounge is fine and although I try to avoid cutting corners was hoping for a pragmatic solution like "damp paint".
I've attached some photos to get some advice and perhaps how much work is involved. If I'm going to a builder / damp-proof specialist I'd like to be sure that I don't end up paying for more work than what is necessary...
Many thanks
