thank you for uploading its been almost a year sleeping in a room that has been growing damp and it is really messing with my emotions and im glad this is south african video cuz that means ill easily find the materials you used
my friend what did you do in the end to get rid of the damp can you please help me out with your knowledge on damp proofing, ALEX COUNTY TIPPERARY IRELAND 🇮🇪 ☘
Best result and long term permanent fix would have been applying a DPC or insulation the affected wall in the bathroom. Despite your fix, water will still be seeping through the bricks on the other side in the bathroom. Treat the real root or cause of the problem....
Problem I have with this is that once the wall has been scraped and damaged paint removed you are left with pock marked wall and neither the sealer or paint really covers the final wall in a smooth finish - it will always look patchy unless the areas where the damaged paint was can be screeded slightly then painted??
I have exactly this problem and wasn't sure what product to use - will try this dampseal. If the plaster is coming off in a powdery way around the peeling paint will dampseal still be ok though? or should I do something else?
Truthfully the paint doesn't get rid of it open your windows twice a day. Is the only way and the roof and gutters need repairing and window vents need to be opened at all times..
My exterior wall is very close to other wall. We are facing the Leakage problem in the exterior wall. Due to this issue interior wall got damaged like damp wall with moulds. Can we lay tiles without arresting the exterior wall leakage..(During rainy season we are getting this issue) Please advice me..Can we lay tiles interior without arresting the issue exterior
My.pronl is that it seems builders did not use enough plastic which supposed to be a barrier between foundation and the actual wall itself,not after rain season water sipp through foundation and damage the plaster below as one can not demolish whole building, will dump plaster work in the case like this? I will be waiting for anyone with solution, thanks.
Used it...damp is back as soon as the rainy weather started again. I am in a annex room at the side of a building basically a cardboard box. Rest of house is perfect. I am now moving out.
Could only painting inside fixes it? I am living in a high-rise building that seeps rain water to inside. There is no way I can do sth to outside wall, I need to fix it inside.
Dampseal does not work. I tried this, bought from Wilko. Dryrods patent rods work. Drill holes above damp + insert patent rods. No chemicals no mess. deal with the problemm
I don't think dryrods are as widely available in South Africa as they are there in the UK buddy. I just checked the internet, and the most cost effective price is R9k...which is hopelessly to pricey. For that amount, one might as well get a professional

Same I feel like I might do damage to my lungs
My mom has COPD from the damp walls in her bedroom. The landlord refuses to fix the damp. Now I'm looking for solutions here
You need to address the cause of damp, not try and steal it in the wall. That's going to damage the masonry over time.
Well done for trapping the moisture in the walls causing the stone to rot.
what should be done then? can you advise?
Was waiting for a video like this. I’m currently struggling with this problem
my friend what did you do in the end to get rid of the damp can you please help me out with your knowledge on damp proofing,

You need to address the main issue inside the wall then apply damp seal on the exterior and interior parts of the wall

Great stuff! My painter has been mixing it wrongly!
Problem I have with this is that once the wall has been scraped and damaged paint removed you are left with pock marked wall and neither the sealer or paint really covers the final wall in a smooth finish - it will always look patchy unless the areas where the damaged paint was can be screeded slightly then painted??
You can fill that with either filler or white cement after the dampseal
Fillar then skimming fulfilled this
Thank you. I've been wondering about the patched too and the sequence of damp seal and filler
I have exactly this problem and wasn't sure what product to use - will try this dampseal. If the plaster is coming off in a powdery way around the peeling paint will dampseal still be ok though? or should I do something else?
I hope they reply to.your comment I really need to know this too
Do you already try this?
Is it waterproof grout? That’s all that is needed.
Truthfully the paint doesn't get rid of it open your windows twice a day. Is the only way and the roof and gutters need repairing and window vents need to be opened at all times..
I have some deep holes left after scraping. Do I fill the holes before applying Dampseal, or afterwards?
Plaster the walls after scrapping , add damp seal first coat and second coat , interior and exterior
Why the paint bubble like a paintstripper after using dampseal?
I’m facing this same issue and it’s so annoying, in my own case it’s the rain hitting the walls from outside
What if root cause not fixed.. Will damp paint help?
Yes its helping a lot
No. It's no use talking moisture in the wall. You need to fix the cause.
Please suggest can we repair this issue by laying wall tiles 🙏🙏🙏
Doesn't work and creates problems by trapping the moisture in the wall. Looks ok initially but then blows and causes damage to both sides of the wall.
In that case i would advice you to apply it both outside and inside the house
@@darylmakalela-jn4cl hahahaha you obviously have no idea. Damp needs treating at source not blocking in.
@davep9096 how would you sort the damp coming through the walls? After the source has been tended to
@@dachreport remove any contaminated plaster back to bare brick. Use a hygroscopic salt neutraliser, allow the brickwork to dry out and re plaster it.
@davep9096 thank you 👍

Can this be applied in exterior wall?
What do u mean with impenetrable barrier paint? If u can give an example, it would be much appreciated
Thanks

Problem, sorry.
Aftwr plaster I have noticed dampness in walls, the wall is common between my neighbour and me
Hi, can anybody tell me what are the signs of a water leak?
This is good. It works when the classical cause has been identified.
so if the shower tiles have been fixed, then you could smear treacle on the walls and say THAT is a damp seal??
Used it...damp is back as soon as the rainy weather started again. I am in a annex room at the side of a building basically a cardboard box. Rest of house is perfect. I am now moving out.
Try getting dryzone damp proofing cream make sure you have a selicone gun you can actually get it from safeguard chemicals or Aquaguard waterproofing.
Why don't you cast a magic spell on it?
I feel your pain. My landlord refuses to fix the damp walls. I'm also looking for an alternative
No need to grind the wall?
Could only painting inside fixes it? I am living in a high-rise building that seeps rain water to inside. There is no way I can do sth to outside wall, I need to fix it inside.
Oh thanks i m coming home builders ,
Thank God!!!
Any product from outside only no use the best solution for rising damp is damp injection cream or damp stick.
is this product available in pakistan?
Let me know as well if you find 1
i have tried this and a year later it comes back.
Someone charged me R5k for this, no thank you I will do it myself. Thanks for the tip.
how to stop dampness from an underground wall where wall sit agains tsoil which cant be removed Thanks
Try chemical tanking for basements
All you are doing here is sealing the damp inside rather than get rid of it but finding out why it’s happened the first place .
what do you advise?tia
The basic problem is not fixed. There is no effective damp barrier/membrane behind the wall tiles on the other side.
Wats the Web sight I can't find it
I tried it as advised by builders and it didn’t work
Tune into an exclusive interview with Binance's CEO for a sneak peek into future developments
Let's be real, it's important refund information
This is a senseless solution. You first need to get rid of the moisture in the walls. Then only can you waterproof the walls.
huh you fix the problem of the damp from the shower then paint the wall and then say it fixed the damp....
scammers
Dampseal does not work. I tried this, bought from Wilko.
Dryrods patent rods work. Drill holes above damp + insert patent rods. No chemicals no mess.
deal with the problemm

You're better off fixing the source of damp.
This product is a waste of time and money. Doesn't work, period!
