Okay - good point, thanks. Does the water staining slabs not exposed to rain tell you anything?

Hi Leofric, the architect thought it was the roof. The roofer found and fixed a problem and look at lot for other issues. The brick layer replaced part of the DPC and told me that the rest was okay. The damp person said it's not raising damp. Thanks

Thanks Dereekoo - The slabs are cemented in but it might be worth a go. Thanks for coming back.

Hi Woody - thanks for coming back. I dont know for sure if there is a DPC under the door. The Porch is original and yes, the slabs do get wet but not from above. I was told if the cavity insulation was at fault, it would bridge the cavity and I would see damp on the inside wall - is this not...

Please see the porch. The wall adjacent to the front door is becoming damp which happens to be below the flashing between the wall and porch tiles. I am fairly sure the wall is not getting splashed with rainwater. Many thanks.

Thanks John. I'm not at home but I guess that's possible. I'll add a picture tonight. The porch has a pitched / tiled roof with flashing into the brickwork.

Thanks John. The floors are solid and the area is covered. Also there is no damp on the inside wall. Thanks

Hello, When it rains heavily I get a damp external wall and I could do with some help please identifying the best way to resolve. The wall is under a porch so its not getting splashed. I have had the bricks removed and the cavity cleared. When the bricks were returned a new damp course was...
