Hi
I am looking to get our coal shed damp proofed so it can be more useful. We had a quote for 5k for it to be done to a very high (basically liveable) standard which I dont think is unreasonable but I would love to do as much of the work as possible myself so thought I'd ask some generous people online for a bit of guidance.
As you can see in the photos there is what Im pretty sure is a water pipe and maybe... another water pipe? covered in something that has gone seriously rusty. These run down the left side wall.
The floor seems quite dry its just the roof and side walls that are really wet. Above this is a shared out door walkway which leads to the door for all the above flats. Water seems to be coming in from above as well as the sides judging by the stalactites in the photo.
It's quite a low ceiling so ideally want to avoid losing height on it.
Any and all suggestions are much appreciated
Josh
