Hi
Currently buying a mid terraced property andvit seem it has damp issues on the dividing walls between both properties on either side and in hallway. Haven't stripped anything back yet but having researched possible sources and cures I will look into what I can see the possible cause is, but relating to these damp rods that can be installed and watching loads of videos it's not clear as to how far you drill and install on party walls, measuring the outside wall at the kitchen door it appears around 300mm which suggests cavity and internal are just one brick, so is it safe to assume the dividing walls between my neighbours are cavity? Also if I ended up installing rods how far do you drill, is it just through my side and fit rod or go right through my mortar bed and partially into next doors across the cavity and push rod right across.
Thanks in advance
