Hi all I plan on doing a follow up video next month (time off at work lol) on how it has worked, I will be showing why I did it this way and what some comments have been like good and bad. And what if any my plans are next. THIS IS NOT A HOW TO, OR SPONSORED VIDEO, AS MOST OF YOU CAN TELL IT'S AN AMATEUR VIDEO ( SOME CAN'T TRUST ME LOL) Sorry for shouting but some need to get it through to their brains, that I am trying to stop damp in my house and I have never done anything like this before.
I was thinking of having a go with this myself as i had loads of damp walls in my bungalow, however as it needed treated from the inside, there was loads of plastering etc so i got a company in to do it. I had a few good convos with the guys doing it, one thing they did tell me....if the damp on your walls inside the home is above 1 meter, then chances are its not rising damp, as the weight of the water rising against gravity does not travel higher than 1 meter. I had 8 internal walls treated, that was the plaster taken off to 1 meter, the injection damp proof, and then a membrane along the wall followed by new boards and plaster. They also told me that the injection / rods were only around 30% effective in their experience, and really its the membrane on the walls that stops anything coming back through. Not that I have a clue about damp, just thought i'd relay the information in case it can help someone. Anyway, great video mate, very helpful to anyone thinking of having a go.
Used these , three months on, the rods look just the same, the mortar in my wall is still reading 33% on my meter, ( and this is in the summer months ) which is the maximum it will go to. I think I have been conned, big time. Thank god I only did a 10 foot interior wall, as a test before doing the whole house.
Hi ,if I understand correctly this kit is used internally after removal of skirting and old plaster . I would be interested to hear what others think. Thanks
Fortunately this is a good video, There is everything lots of good footage of the operation with good tips of marking the wall with tape to make it look easy. He took time to show us , he didnt have to.
Hi I've watched this video very educational thanks, i can't find the other one showing the job once completed the one you said you was going to do next.
Thanks for video I'm planning to do soon much appreciated with instruction not sure if I still need to take plaster off from inside to do the same or will be enough to do it from out side how was the affect did this product did well ?? thanks you so much
Really good video mate. This has given me confidence to spend the money on this stuff (I didn’t think I needed the kit so thanks for that!). So I’ve only got a single skin garage wall to do so should I buy half as much?
