About this deal

Preparations will be made both internally and externally before the damp proof cream can be injected into the wall. The first step is to remove any skirting boards, connecting radiators or any other fixed fixtures to provide access for the technician to start the process. It is useful when calculating the cost of damp proofing your home to consider the following factors: Rather than coming from outside, rising damp becomes an issue when water from the earth under your home seeps into the foundations, floors and walls. This can be difficult, expensive and time consuming to remedy. Causes of damp and solutions Launched in 2000, Dryzone Damp-Proofing Cream has caused a revolution in the treatment of rising damp.

Clean and simple installation, low pressure injection ensures correct dosage and less chance of spillage No Hydro DPC Cream is simply injected into pre-drilled holes along the continuous mortar line 4 inches apart. Treating Rising Damp with a Damp Proof CourseUse No Hydro 12mm Terracotta DPC Injection Plugs to cap the drill holes that have been injected with No Hydro Damp Proofing Cream.

For heritage projects, or where replastering needs to be minimised Dryzone Renovation Plasters should be used. For Rising Damp treatment Re-plastering with an appropriate, salt resistant product, such as Renovation Plaster or a sand / cement mix containing a suitable Render Additive, is essential to prevent further damage to the plaster finish. In all cases the damp proof course should, as far as possible, be installed in accordance with British Standard ‘Code of Practice for Installation of Chemical Damp Proof Courses’ BS6576:2005. THE INSTALLATION SPACINGS AND HOLE SIZE IS CORRECT IN THE BELOW HOWEVER IT IS INSTALLED ON A PLINTH WHICH WILL DIRECT WATER INTO THE UNFILLED HOLES AND ALSO LEAD TO SPLASHES BRIDGING THE NEW DAMP PROOF COURSE The DPC cream will slowly diffuse along the bed joint. It may take a month or two to cure and become fully effective. After that time, residual moisture above the damp course will begin to evaporate. In masonry walls, Dryzone Damp Proofing Cream prevents dampness from developing. Simply injected into holes drilled along a horizontal mortar course, the proven and BBA approved cream produces a rising damp barrier.

Damp Proof Injection Cream

Unlike condensation, penetrating damp occurs when moisture from the outside comes into your home through holes. This can then lead to damp, mould and damage to the home. Rising damp Once the damp proof cream has been injected into the walls of the building then re-plastering will then need to be carried out on the internal walls of the building. This process should be delayed for as long as possible to ensure there is enough time for the walls to dry out.

On external faces of walls, drill holes can be re-pointed using a matched mortar or can be plugged with DPC Injection Plugs (Available in a variety of colours). Using a damp proof injection cream is probably the most efficient and economical method of treating rising damp within your property.Independent tests demonstrate that Dryzone provides a more effective barrier to rising damp than competing products. Once the wall has dried, replace all damp and salt-laden plaster per BS 6576. Consider using a damp-proof membrane if you need to replace the wall plaster before the wall is dry. Studded membranes allow early replastering whilst the masonry behind them dries. What are the advantages of Damp Proof Injection Cream? Dryzone Damp Proofing Cream eliminates rising damp in masonry walls. The patented and BBA approved cream is injected into drilled holes running along a horizontal mortar course. The high-performance active component will form a rising damp barrier. Once cured, Dryzone will form a physical damp proof course. Guaranteed Performance Affected area size: When damp affects a large area it is likely the issue is more extensive and therefore will be more costly to remedy If the damp proof injection cream is installed correctly, not only will it ensure the property is treated from rising damp, but it will also provide a reliable long-term solution for it not to return again in the future.
