Hello everyone,
I'll start chronologically:
Background: 3 weeks before day 0, the screed was "laid". Also in the basement.
The basement is a "white tub", meaning the base slab is waterproof.
Day 0: I notice that moisture rises the plaster in some corners of the basement.
The plasterers had still fetched water in the basement at that time. The suspicion was therefore a leaking hose or something similar.
Day 1: The underfloor heating is filled with water, meaning the water cannot come from the underfloor heating, as it was previously unfilled. The pressure was also constant.
Day 2: The level at the walls has risen slightly.
Day 5: The underfloor heating is put into operation, also the basement area with moisture. The hope now was that the moisture would decrease due to the warmth.
Day 8: Moisture still present...
It has also not rained since day 0...
What do you think? What could it be?
Construction defect? Or does the water really take that long to dry?
