Hi Damp Sam, did you attach the board directly to the walls with adhesive or did you have put some sort of frame or brackets behind the board?

It fits into the duct sleeve then screws to the board

Evening Damp Sam! Any chance of a video discussing the CRST and CSSW training and exams? I’ve done the technician course and plan to progress to the CSDTB/CSDB and the CSSW courses, there’s no video on KZbin about either that I can find. Would be massively helpful for all those looking to solve damp and condensation the right way

What if you take off the plaster and the bricks are mortared together closer than the 12mil borehole to insert the rod. Is it acceptable in this case to drill as centre as possible into the mortar and at the same time taking some of the top and bottom bricks/and or corner parts of bricks. So in essence some of the rods are going to be in direct brick contact as well as mortar contact. I think my house bricks are between 8 & 10 mill of mortar. Nothing wrong with the brickwork.
@dampsam9 күн бұрын
Yes that’s acceptable 👍

Thanks Sam this is great. In a double brick house, how far into the mortar should I drill to install the rods? Don't want to go all the way through.

Hello mate used this on a few jobs now and few of the walls got hair line cracks when it dried any idear or have you came across this? Paint covered the cracks there that fine. But bloody painter told the customer that plaster was blown everywhere because it sounds hollow when you tapp it being on that membrane

Could be the paint or finish that’s de bonded under the membrane if it wasn’t prepped right

Damp Sam, you're missing the point. This is a cheap solution that anybody can do themselves to eliminate one more possible reason. And the description you were trying to think of when explaining where water goes is ' water travels a path through its least resistance'. It could also be a few reasons why there is damp there, so eliminating one more reason is ticking off a list of what it could be. So well done Roger mate

Very useful video but a bit depressing as I’ve had multiple roofers and a roof surveyor claim to know the problem and how to fix it (including removing the stack altogether). Still I get damp when it rains after almost 2 years trying to resolve. I’m now thinking it’s the salts you’re talking about but I don’t have any colour staining at all. Only damp towards the top of the breast / ceiling. Does the lack of yellow / brown stains rule out salts? Thank you.
@dampsam18 күн бұрын
No salts manifest in lots of ways but mainly as damp patches. Some surveyors are better than others so I feel for you, iv found that there are common sense surveyors and paper surveyors one has done the job and got the qualifications the others learned parrot fashion just repeating what they have read with no relevance
