I have a late ninteenth century house in scotland - with 2ft thick solid stone walls. It has rising damp on most, but not all walls downstairs, and I have been advised by a number of companies to install a chemical DPM, remove and replace the plaster - the normal recs - However, I know that Stone houses were designed in a different era and am sceptical about the need and cost for a DPM. I have heard that a ventilation system may be better - Any advice or comments would be really helpful?
