Damp proofing has been a concern throughout history, with early methods using natural materials like lime plaster and bitumen. 19th and 20th century innovations introduced damp-proof courses and waterproof membranes to combat rising damp. Modern damp proofing techniques include damp proof paints, injections, tanking systems, and breathable membranes, tailored to specific damp issues. Damp proofing remains essential for preserving building integrity and indoor air quality by preventing moisture-related problems.
