Waterproofing & Damp Proofing by 66
Lateral damp - moisture forcing its way through walls. Rising damp is moisture moving from the ground up through the masonry.
You can expect to find lateral damp where the vertical damp proof course has deteriorated or been omitted or incorrectly installed. Some symptoms of lateral damp are the appearance of salts crystallizing on the walls, flaking or blistering paint and cracked plaster.
Lateral damp is treated by “tanking” i.e. removing the plaster off the bricks & applying a cement sealant to the bare brick to prevent damp penetration and replastering with damp repellent cement in combination with silicone injection, where necessary, to ensure the prevention of rising damp.
