#dampproofcourse

Project now completed for a commercial unit / shop in Chichester city centre, work was carried out due to rising and penetrating damp problems. Old plaster hacked off, tanking applied, dry lined in one section due to penetrating damp, dry rod - dpc injection, two coat damp proofing system applied in second section due to rising, old plaster board taken off - new plaster board added / dry lined with ventilation in third section due to rising, all with plastering finishes. #damp #dampproofing #dampproofcourse #plastering #chichester (at Chichester, West Sussex) https://www.instagram.com/p/CGVs-Tvgj07/?igshid=u22h7rhjt4cs

What we had here is a dividing wall that had bee rendered and waterproofed up to 1m but the dpc was either no installed or done years ago so the brickwork behind was wet. A plug socket had been installed after and patched up with unsuitable plaster and on the opposite side old plaster had been left on around that socket too. We installed a new dpc the cut out the contaminated plaster and used Dryzone’s fast setting dampproofing backing that was sent for us to review. The wall will now start to dry out and return to normal. #dryzoneplaster #dampproofcourse #dpc #bs6576 #dampsam #alldrydampproofing #instadamp #decorationspoil #barnsley #atsocialmediauk #rotherham #doncaster #sheffield #wakefield (at Barnsley) https://www.instagram.com/p/BqIPj1nlT03/?utm_source=ig_tumblr_share&igshid=1i48410ptqiqh

Building regulations state that a damp proof course should be a minimum of 150mm from the ground to avoid rain water splash back. There are 2 options if not. 1 is to lower the ground level, 2 is to drill and inject a new DPC, this was low all the way around the entire property with a concrete path. Which option would you choose if it was your property? #youchoose #dampproofcourse #dpc #wakefield #dampproofing #dampsam #dampexpert #alldrydampproofing #sheffieldissuperinsta #barnsleyisbrill #rotherhamiswonderful #leedsleedsleeds #questionoftheday #countdown (at Wakefield)
