Care to elaborate...? I always see plasterers only rendering to around the dpc mark.
where’s the dpc? if it was any good you wouldn’t have needed the ‘damp firm’ in the first place.
Did they inject above the floor joists?
how far above the wood floor that we can see did they inject?
you could argue they shouldnt have cemented over that course.
theres most likely water proofer in the cement....plus how would you account for the 3-4” when fitting your skirting.
You never bridge a DPC inside the building or outside.
Cut away the render to expose the injected bed and break the bridging to the floor.
Was the old plaster hacked off ack to bricks?
theres no flopped up membrane edge from below the solid floor. so displaced damp could be coming up from below the solid floor?
as above, thats a rough render. Thr render is still damp (do this company work on sundays?) and its not been ruled off and rubbed up.
maybe you know You'll have to use a remedial skim.
top left there looks like a scrap of gypsum. do you have a pic of the whole wall?
is that a solid or cavity wall? is the outside ground level well below the solid floor?
unless you find and fix the cause of any damp then you could be wasting your time.
