Damp, mould & waterproofing survey software for India

Built for monsoon damp & rising damp

India's monsoon rainfall, humidity and ground moisture drive penetrating and rising damp, mould and waterproofing failures. Capture moisture readings, mould extent and photo evidence in one offline report, in INR.

Heavy monsoon exposure, high humidity and ground moisture make damp, mould and waterproofing failures common across India's residential and commercial stock. DampApp Pro™ gives surveyors and facilities teams an offline workflow that documents moisture conditions and produces a professional PDF on site.

India-specific inspection priorities

Use the property history, access available and current conditions to set the inspection sequence. These priorities guide evidence gathering; they are not a diagnosis or a compliance conclusion.

1. Trace monsoon water-shedding from roof to wall

On terraces, flat roofs and upper floors, record roof finishes, parapets, rainwater outlets, overflow paths and the client’s timeline for rainfall and first observations. Photograph defects with their position and direction of fall rather than treating a ceiling mark as proof of a cause. This gives a waterproofing contractor a clearer starting record for further investigation.

2. Separate plinth and ground-moisture observations

At lower levels, capture the external ground level, paving, drainage fall, visible damp-proof-course details and any bridging finishes where accessible. Then record internal wall heights, salts or finish damage as observations, with moisture and environmental readings where appropriate. The sequence helps distinguish the locations that need closer investigation without labelling a mechanism prematurely.

3. Document room use and ventilation during humid periods

In occupied flats, homes and commercial rooms, note whether spaces are closed, air conditioned, recently cleaned or used for cooking, bathing or drying. Pair those notes with time-stamped humidity, air-temperature and surface observations. India’s climate varies markedly by region and season, so a concise visit record is stronger than a generic national assumption.

Built for India professionals

Structured, standards-referenced condition reports clients and managing agents can act on.

Small surveying firms

Give a compact team a repeatable inspection structure while each surveyor controls the conclusion.

Pest & timber specialists

Link moisture readings to timber decay and infestation findings in one report.

Landlords & managing agents

Move-in / move-out moisture and mould records that hold up in disputes.

Local standards & frameworks

The National Building Code of India (NBC 2016), published by the Bureau of Indian Standards, includes guidance on dampness, waterproofing and ground-moisture protection, and IS codes cover damp-proof-course practice. Green ratings such as IGBC and GRIHA address indoor environment. A clear, dated, measured record helps document a property against the applicable guidance; confirm the state-level requirements that apply.

Why surveyors choose it here

  • Offline-first: full capture, psychrometric calculations and on-device PDF with no signal. Optional Pro cloud sync resumes when you reconnect.
  • AI report wording: turn moisture readings and mould photos into clear, standards-referenced prose (bring your own Gemini or OpenAI key, or use the free trial).
  • INR & local terminology: remediation cost notes and report language prepared for India.
  • Evidence: photos carry EXIF-derived capture times (with attachment-time fallback); dew-point and surface-temperature readings support the surveyor's later interpretation.

India damp & mould software — FAQs

Does it cover monsoon and rising damp in India?

Yes. Moisture readings, dew-point tools and timestamped photos document penetrating damp, rising damp and waterproofing failures, with remediation cost notes in INR.

Which standards can it reference in India?

Reports can reference the National Building Code (NBC 2016) dampness and waterproofing guidance and green ratings such as IGBC or GRIHA alongside condition observations. Conclusions remain tied to what was inspected.

Does it work offline?

Yes. Capture and on-device PDF export work with no connection. Optional Pro cloud sync resumes when you reconnect.
