I am a single 76 year old lady, moved into a bungalow that needs some renovation. My recent experience, is that work men class themselves as professionals. I have never been given a detailed work scheduled and expected to pay cash. Once paid they don't return to finish or correct a problem. I have had so called professionals that have had a lack of respect for me and my home. I am following your RU-vid video and gain a lot of information from you. Thank you.

@dampsam 10 месяцев назад

This is why me and the PCA bang on about getting relevant qualifications and get adhere to a code of conduct. Hopefully my channel give our industry some transparency.

@reginaclarke7434 8 месяцев назад

I have a smell of damp throughout and evidence of damp in cupboards. I have dismantled a fitted wardrobe due to damp. I have had vents fitted in the soffits and each chimney stack and roof around attended to, all costly work. Each trades person has advises on a different solution. All confusing information and I don't know who is right. There should be regulations for any one that carries out work, as electricians and plumbers have certificates. It should be regulated that invoices, receipts and guarantees are provided. Business cards should have the person's identity, qualifications or stage of competency and include a business address. I thought this move would be a pleasant experience. Bring back the apprenticeships. Regards

Thank you so so much for this fabulous informative video you have just hit the nail on the head and saved me a lot of money I was unsure as to what was causing the patches of what looked like sweating,but l think gypsum plaster was used to brick up fireplace. Regards L .RUSSELL.

Hi any advice on a surveyor that has mis diagnosed a job that iv worked on? It's was moulded walls and he got me hack off re render and skim,which I don't think the customer need at all,it's a solid floor no air vents at all,and the mould was coming up behind 2 big sofas, and only 1 window has a trickle vent and that was closed

@dampsam 4 месяца назад

Sounds like it will prob return come next September if it’s a ventilation issue

@simonjohn692 4 месяца назад

@@dampsam it will 100% ,he's charged her £3,200 for the works and still not paid me and I completed the works a month ago

@nicknickmm Год назад

Ive had an independent damp survey done and they said improve ventilation in the cellar and then knock off the plaster on the whole side of my house (2 rooms and fire places). The walls look ok and not really much visible dampness aside from on one chimney breast (due to the sut in there and its closed off). I really dont want ro replaster. At what point do you really need to replaster? I want to paint the walls but dont want to do that and then realise i shoulve replastered! Theres no peeling and wasnt picked up in the home buyers survey so hadnt budgeted for it.

@dampsam Год назад

Without seeing the job it’s hard to say, normally when plaster is contaminated and you have decoration spoil

@piospisspot 10 месяцев назад

All plasterers should remember that plaster contains ammonia which reacts with the tanic acid in oak. It's virtually impossible to remove the stains so cover that floor properly.

@dampsam 10 месяцев назад

Tell me about it, when I was a plasterer in my early 20s we renovated a farm house and the guy had all oak doors n casings and window frames installed new untreated, they all ended up with black marks on them

@gerigame2995 5 месяцев назад

curious - why not just backng plaster and then a skim plaster- why do you have to have backing board? this didnt have plasterborad to begin with - just asking

😂😂 ya funny bud lmao

@thomaselston4680 Год назад

could do with your opinion on it sam is there any way I can send you some videos I know a bit about damp proofing but not on your level the salts coming through at sealing line it's 9 inch brickwork and the render is blowing surely should fix the outside before the inside what do you think

@dampsam Год назад

Send an email to dampsam@thedampshow.co.uk and I’ll let you know where to send the pics n vid

@thomaselston4680 Год назад

@Flat-Five Год назад

Just wondering does gypsum bonding often cause an issue or does it depend on the bricks maybe? People use it all the time so I wonder if those that have an issue are the unlucky few but I guess they're the folks that call you so you see it a lot. There's a few filled in chases in my house that haven't caused a problem. Is there something better to use just in case it causes the damp patch from the salts? Cheers

@amateurvegan2636 Год назад

Hardball is better in older houses or areas exposed to moisture

@dampsam Год назад

It’s not a good product with salts

@rumtumbugger 6 месяцев назад

To answer your question seeing has no one else is capable... It firstly depends on if you have cavity walls - lets assume not as 75% of issues are with solid walls. You need to plaster with non-hydraulic lime in short. Get rid of any pink gypsum, it traps moisture - Google it!

@peterrathbone179 Год назад

What's wrong with using sand cement ... like for like with a bit of sbr in the mix. Great commentary Sam. Last one I watched where the lessons with people learning close up had me in stitches 🤣🤣🤣 . sometimes your comments are gold 👍.

@dampsam Год назад

Sand & cement with additive is ok but not on an external solid wall as it can cold bridge

@peterrathbone179 Год назад

@@dampsam Ah, solid wall. So no cavity 👍

@briancorrigan4858 Год назад

The problem with getting a “free” survey done is it’s not independent. You know the “surveyor” is in fact a salesman who get commission on the chemicals he sells……hence don’t expect a true diagnosis of the problem.

@dampsam Год назад

It’s a good point and some are like that, some are not you have to do your own due diligence and find one of us good guys.

@AndyPreston-kz5dq Год назад

Sam is completely right what he's saying so funny thought state of that floor. And with the ruling needed too go both ways skirting looks pissed

gotta meet with a damp company Wednesday at one of my customers houses dive charged a three and a half grand to do 3 1/2 m diffuse dry zone sticks sand and cement which has cracked painted the outside of the house the problems hire up in the wall external render has blowing pretty sure you should leave sand and cement seven days before skimming and you shouldn't go over that the injection holes rod holes the skyline looks like a banana too many cowboys out there 😂😂😂
