My 1939 bungalow in Glasgow has some sort of tar damproofing on the foundation floor??
I'm trying to figure out how to stop the dampness as all this stuff is either missing and patches or has gone soft and cracked - especially where it meets the walls. I suspect when built this was just poured in to form a liquid DPM over the earth below.
Can I buy this stuff and just pour it over the worse cracks etc? Or should I just cover the whole area with plastic DPM sheet?
Cheers.
