Good job we are doing that for the last 5 years good fast job we use insulation board also

Hi thanks for this video. I watched it a few times but still unsure why you need the vertical injections? Is it because you are only doing one wall and not the whole room?

[enquire]

Its best not to use plasterboard but instead use the light weight tiling boards. I have done this on a very cold/ damp external Victoria property and its been over 5 years with no damp patches or black old growth!!

Damp proofing injection does not work. You need to find the cause (probably a small leak somewhere) and stop it. If that's not possible you need to leave the brick out in the open and have good ventilation or add a breathable lime plaster and have good ventilation

Could you wait for area to dry out before reboarding? Could the brickwork dry out and cause damp behind boards?

Would you still use this now after isotherm came out or isotherm replaced this?

Hi, watched a few vids now and I know you use acrylic and foam to fix the boards, l know the foam grabs quick and let's you move on while the acrylic sets. Where I'm a bit confused is does the foam not spoil the effect of the acrylic, I imagine it doesn't because you would stop using it, but then why not just use the foam to fix. What's the benefit of both.

Brilliant video mate it's always good to know all the damp systems 👍

[offcuts]

Great video mate just subscribed to your channel and podcasts about a month ago, playing catch up on them. I'm still learning from your videos isn't the bottom section of the wall one of the most important for damp and can't understand why the other company thought was ok to use bonding and was surprised they didn't pull the skirting off. I skimmed a few rooms myself for the first time last year and came out ok even a plasterer said that when had a look, I've gotta admit found plastering the most strenuous of the work done on house especially ceilings. Keep up the god work

That covers it up Sam but not solve the real problem I fear

[_Bush_Bush_]

How far in do you know how to drill? Also, is it better to do it from the outside or do it from the inside?

[Howt-ooo]

Im the most simplest terms your just covering up a problem? Or is the last option before home owner sells?

[mauricereidy]

Not a clue wally, no understanding of Building Sceince. Plenty bull talk, none of your systems will work, short term expensive works that are inadequate and will not solve the underline problem.

Thanks for your videos. I've been told not to plaster onto skirting or architrave. Is this only when it's unpainted? Is there a risk of deforming with a same day skirting refit?

Thanks

Hiya Sam, Im just wondering if a salt neutraliser and salt neutralising plaster are both used/needed?

[flippinheck]

Interesting method ive not seen used before, generally I would sbr the wall first slurry the wall a few times once tack on SBR coat, then sbr the dry slurry and render the slurry with sbr render, I never use a injection systems they are all useless, if your render is thin enough then I suppose it would be good to then do this onto the render and use either a insulated board or green board, what is the acrylic you are using and is the foam a pu type?

[oakashthorn]

Could you not just use the insta stik or would damp strike through that then into the plaster board etc??

[groovejet]

Would you inject to solve damp, or use slurry, sbr, and gear for salts, then render ??? Ive seen injection fail a few times.
Sovereign show a how to, just rendering and slurry coat with K11. Have you seen that work, without injection?

Hi Sam, great video of your work. Keep the vids coming
