Hi I have a small house which I think was a converted cattle store or outbuilding. Any way we have tiled floors which I understand is on a dirt floor. I have a patch of damp which I thought was rising only showing on the inside wall but that is getting decidedly worse with white powdery deposits and orange stains. The rest is just a darker shade of magnolia which feels damp. I have tried to seal it from outside but still it persists. You can dry it out to a certain extent by having the radiator on which is next to it but as soon as you go away and return 6 weeks later its back.I though I saw some tube of stuff that has capillary action to block any leaks. Am I wasting my time with this if it is wat happens with earth floors?
