Hi,
I'm looking at using something like the Oldroyd Xv Clear http://www.safeguardeurope.com/products/oldroyd_xv_clear.php
on the walls / floor of my basement. Just got a couple of questions about using it.
1) On the walls do you take the membrane up to the ceiling joints or is it fine just to go up to the plaster board?
2) At door frames do you seal the edges of the membrane with the one sided tape Oldroyd Overseal Tape? How close should you take the membrane to where the door frame will be?
3) There is a working drain in the basement floor (can't afford a sump). Any advice on how to maintain access to it? I.e cut a hole in the membrane on the floor and create some sort of cover?
Thanks in advance!
Pete
