Hello, we have a damp patch high up on the inside of our external wall to the rear of the house. Last year is blistered and looked like a cauliflower in parts. Due to the position, I assumed it was due to the gutters above, so I had them cleared. This was about 12 months ago.
A couple of weeks ago I scraped off the paint and the surface was quite wet to the touch, I aired the room and it improved. I put a layer of filler across, and sanded down. More or less straight away it discoloured. Now we've had heavy rain, the blistering is coming back.
Looking outside, nothing looks untoward, pointing etc seems fine.
It's an old terrace house, solid brick.
Any suggestions? Leaky gutter or possibly need cleaning out again?
Looking to sell the house, so obviously need this sorting.
Thanks
