Title: Damp
Post by: chalkies_shorts on Monday, October 17, 2011, 19:17:08
Does anyone know any damp experts that will tell me what to do without telling me the house has got to be removed brick by brick. Looks as though damp course has broken down and could get expensive.

When you've fixed whatever has caused the damp a coat or two of Thompsons Dampseal will stop the stain coming through other finishes you paint over it with.

I work for Ronseal (Thompsons Range is part of our group) so any info needed give me a shout.

Does exactly what it says on the tin.

Any stain left will as likely as not "burn" through fresh paint. Also you'll have problems with "mineral salting" when dried which will push the paint away from the surface. You can paint the Dampseal onto a damp surface without it peeling away once dried, or onto the dried surface. Only trying to be helpful.

once all the old render/plaster has been removed, brickwork treated and tanked new render applyed.mineral salting will be non exsistent
