Hi All, hoping for some advice on a potential job.
The rear elevation of this building has damp issues, the existing drain pipe looks to need replacing but the walls seem to be just soaking up moisture in numerous areas especially at the lower walls.
Reason I assume is that the stone work doesn’t seem to have any water resistant render and isn’t painted, so I’m just wondering what would people advise on the best option moving on forward, obviously need scaffold but would you say just a simple coupe layers of paint with a stabiliser solution would suffice?
A silicon render coat would probably be best solution but cost for that size of elevation would be huge so I think painting is the most viable option.
Many thanks in advance!
