A few years ago I took out the chimney breast to make ground and first floor rooms bigger.
The house is a mid terrace with a gennel/alley running up between properties where the chimney was.
Problem is:
On the ground floor about 7ft from ground there is a patch of plaster (about 9" diamater)which refues to take paint, and flakes off over time. I unibonded the wall,bonding,top coat etc when I did it.
I cant see it as damp as it doesnt ever spread or show anywhere else.
Has anyone any suggestions as to the problem?i'm wondering if the unibond or bonding has had a reaction with some soot that might have been left on the brickwork?Its as if the plaster has never dried out.
