Hi All, Can anyone give me advice on this problem, I had a leaking roof ,I renewed the ridge capping and repointed the chimney with lime mortar this was done 5 weeks ago and after the heavy rain we had i've checked in the attic and found it to be dry as to before the repairs the wall would be all wet. My next project is to decorate the bedroom,which has 4 damp patches,1 directly below where the attic wall was damp one slightly below and to the right of this and the other two are to the right of the second one just above an old fire place,should this old fire place have a air vent to let air circulate up the flue ?. Sorry to waffle on but can any members give me an idea of why I have this problem and how I can solve them.
The walls are solid with lathe and plaster.
