Wall dehumidification Leipzig & West Saxony — Request advice now

Damp basements, wet walls and rising moisture are widespread in Leipzig and the West Saxon region. Wilhelminian-era buildings in the Waldstraßenviertel, Plagwitz or Connewitz, but also post-war buildings in Grünau or Paunsdorf – many buildings have no functioning horizontal damp-proof course. Drymat is your contact for professional wall drying in Leipzig and the entire region.

When masonry drying in Leipzig makes sense

Typical signs are white salt efflorescence, dark damp patches in the plinth area, a musty smell in basement rooms, flaking plaster and recurring mould growth. The causes are usually rising moisture, defective horizontal damp-proof courses or laterally penetrating moisture. Leipzig's location in the lowland basin with a high water table and loamy-sandy soils further aggravates the situation.

How Drymat wall dehumidification works

The patented Drymat system relies on active wall dehumidification – a purely physical process that effectively stops rising moisture in the masonry and actively dries the masonry:

• Titanium anodes in the masonry: Specially developed anodes are inserted into the masonry joints. A weak electrical field reverses the capillary moisture movement – the water is actively channelled back down into the ground.
• No digging: No earthworks, no excavator operations, no damage to the facade or the garden.
• No chemicals: No introduction of injection resins or chemical barrier agents – the process is purely physical and environmentally friendly.
• Measurably effective: Integrated data logging documents the drying process seamlessly. You can see at any time how the moisture values are developing.
• Patented and certified: German patent, scientifically recognised to ÖNORM 3355, confirmed by international expert reports.

Leipzig lies in the Leipzig Lowland Bay – geologically shaped by alluvial loam soils, sandy sediments and, in places, very high groundwater levels, especially near the rivers (Weiße Elster, Pleiße, Parthe). The enormous stock of Wilhelminian-era buildings – Leipzig has one of the largest contiguous stocks of older buildings in Germany – was predominantly erected without modern damp-proof courses. Similar problems are also found in Halle, Merseburg, Altenburg and Borna.
