would appreciate some views on my rising damp problem (I couldn't see anything similar to this on previous posts) but recognise some of the questions.
Old cottage, recently renovated within last 10years. concrete rendering on external walls with evidence of damp proof injection (2drill holes per brick) Solid walls.
i redrilled the holes and on internal and external and re injected the brick will the solution. the brick work was crumbling and the mortar was in a similar state, also the mortar course was excessive.
THe house has been empty for a year and damp marks are evident up to 1m high on the internal walls again.
however there is a gap between the floor and about 1 foot high where the walls do not have any marks.
I do not believe there is water coing from the outside at any point
any help would be appreciated
