Hi All, New to this forum, so be gentle! : )
I have an interior and exterior wall that became damp due to leaking gutters and poorly installed hopper head. The guttering and hopper have now been repaired.
At the weekend I hacked off the plaster from the interior wall and the plaster was soaked, I removed a lot of it one handed with a bolster!! it smells really damp/musty.
So now, I have a damp/wet brick wall (inside) and my question is: how long should it take to dry and should I use an dehumidifier?
I haven't hacked off the plaster on the exterior wall (inside) yet, will do this weekend but I suspect it will be in the same condition. Will post up some pics later today
Thanks in advance.
