Wall behind our fridge in the kitchen is slightly damp (goes up to about 2 metres high) and there is a mouldy smell in the area. Wall is shared with a neighbour and it's in the corner of the house. We skimmed and painted the wall almost 2 years ago when we moved in and knew about the problem but hoped it would have been sorted out by skimming and painting. Next to the wall there is a water pipe for the fridge that previous owners had, but it's closed. Mouldy smell is present whether it rains or not.
Any ideas what could be causing this? Could a worn out parapet wall leding cause this?
I have a picture of the wall if that would help, but not sure if I can upload it.
