Hi guys,
As you can see from the picture, i have damp issues in my living room. The reason for this is because my neighbours ground level (which is my wall) is 2ft higher and is touching my house.
I'm not 100% sure, but my solution is:-
1. Break away the inside plasterwork to brick level
2. Place a dpc sheet
3. Make a wooden (treated timber) frame + galvanised screws and screw it to the wall (DPC sheet will be on the bricks, behind the frame)
4. plaster board, replaster and decorate.
Would this work?
