Exterior ground level too high

Fordbedjs2 · 22 Dec 2011

Can anyone help?
I have damp below ground level in a victorian house. The level of the exterior is apparently too high. We have had a membrane injected into the Walls and all rotten joists replaced also two new air bricks installed. It has been advised that we lower the exterior ground level but we have just rendered and really can't afford all the extra cost. Is there a cheaper way of treating perhaps a waterproof paint?

You can fit a waterproof barrier against the wall but this would involve digging the soil away in any case, so why would you?
