What is Efflorescence in Buildings: Causes & Solutions about?

Efflorescence is a common issue in buildings, particularly in humid regions, characterized by white powdery deposits caused by moisture carrying soluble salts to the surface. It can lead to aesthetic damage, surface deterioration, and poor paint adhesion, primarily due to moisture infiltration and the use of susceptible building materials. Preventive measures include proper drainage, waterproofing, and using efflorescence-resistant materials, while treatment options involve cleaning and sealing surfaces.
