Rising Damp? Damp proof course?

- The client had a damp proof course installed after being told that their property did not have a damp proof course due to its age. A tiny bit of effort and a little bit of knowledge was all that was needed to prove otherwise.
Good lad. Very Honest of you. Not many about like that now. I don't know how these people can go home on a night and be comfortable that they are ripping people off
Cheers rozzer, I appreciate your comments. 👍
Contractor did not want to kneel down to install horizontal d.p.c , vertical d.p.c nice and straight, not
Surely if there was no dpc, the height if the chemical dpc needs to take into account the internal ffl, well more so in a solid brick wall.
Absolutely Luke. 👍
Could you help me with my problem. I’ve had ‘damp specialists’ tell me my internal partition wall has rising damp in it and that it needs injections and rerendering/replastering.
My question is how can an internal partition wall be having rising damp? The front elevation wall has no signs of damp. However, the rear elevation has penetration damp due to a high ground level (we are losing the ground level to resolve this and then replastering the wall). Could the internal partition wall (pre-1865 house) just be having a condensation issue? And would a condensation issue be more apparent towards the bottom of the wall (heat sink? Colder near ground?)
Yes. It's almost always condensation if it's not penetrating damp or an apparent leak
Condensation, or a leaking pipe or collapsed sewer underneath?
Y 👁 man
All wrong has dpc
