Hey guys,
Got a house renevation coming up, the customer has asked me which is best to deal with her downstairs wall which is the exterior wall of the room, its damp, the old plaster is peeling off. i have given her 2 options was thinking what you guys would do?:
1. Rip all of the old plaster, seal and plaster with a lime mix or
2. Line with plastic clear sheeting (dont no tech name for it) build stud wall with 2x1 and use plasterboard with instulation built on the back.
which you guys think is the best, i am thinking the second as it more insulation and keeps the damp away.
Do i need building regs on this sounds stupid but just checking?
