Right, on one of the walls surrounding our garden we have ongoing probelm with what I assume is mold, the estate that we're on have come out twice and stripped the paint up to about 30 cm from the grass and painted a sort of sealant then painted over it again but - yes, hence the post here, it always comes back, it looks pretty awful as the wall is yellow and the contrast with the grass etc, anyway, as far as i'm aware the wall probably hasn't got very big (if any) footings and that area is obviously wetter?? on the ground hence the damp, we haven't got anything like it on the other walls.

Can someone please reccommend a person/firm to sort it or the right materials and i'll get someone on it?

Thanks in advance.

Painting the surfaces of the wall will not stop rising dampness.
