Bright as you say prevention is better than cure. Continuous learning and offering creative solutions when the prevention did not happen. Love the consistency of on point messages and work. Great video. Medasse.
Bright the dampness is from the soil rising through block and concrete so when you plaster the wall is not solution to rising dampness, but rather block it during concrete and block laying and even that it is just 50% because water always finds it own's way thanks
Great job. You will also need a gutter system to keep water from logging around the building. We have gutters on our houses to allow rain to flow away from the roof to the ground maybe 2 feet or more away. Windows need a cap to keep water from seeping in. A foil or moisture barrier tape and aluminum or plastic cap.
this approach only hides the damp eventually the damp will rise above plastered area.well installed DPC and DPM are the best method.yes , keeping surface water away from lower portion of your building helps but this waterproof plastering wont stop capillary action of water from the soil to your foundation blocks.the inner side of the wall will start peeling followed by the waterproofed plaster.most people dont even know waterproof chemicals,concrete sealers,water repellent coatings etc have lifespan.No disrespect but i believe this is a waste of money and just a temporal solution at best.
@@BrightandClara injecting a good water-repellent DPC into the mortar joint after removing old plaster or the best but difficult approach is inserting a DPC into the wall.
@@BrightandClara cut mortar joint horizontally at maximum of 3ft interval and carefully inserting DPC.injection can also be done horizontally across mortar joint that 5-10inches above compound .personally i will start with locating all your plumbing lines and electric wiring lines and any other thing hidden in the wall wall to be fixed.installing dpc into an existing structure is a tedious and patient work you can rush it whereas Inserting Dpc into a fence wall is a fairly easier job.i realise this damp proofing method seem new to you eventhough you know about DPC but i can assure you it has been done for decades.
