Independent tests demonstrate that Dryzone provides a more effective barrier to rising damp than competing products. This is set by Hotjar to identify a new user’s first session. It stores a true/false value, indicating whether this was the first time Hotjar saw this user. It is used by Recording filters to identify new user sessions. In the absence of a working DPC, walls can soak up groundwater. The excess dampness can cause wooden floors and skirting boards to rot. Wall plaster may deteriorate, and decorated finishes may peel or stain. Once No Hydro Damp Proofing Cream has been installed, it spreads before curing to form a water-repellent barrier. This will prevent rising damp from rising up the wall.

Eliminates the need to introduce large volumes of liquid carrier into the wall. Dryzone is over four times stronger than many competing products. The injection takes place into an already poor quality or damaged mortar joint. Before any damp treatment can take place, this will need to be fixed for the DPC to be effective. 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 It should be noted that whilst insertion of a chemical DPC inhibits further moisture from rising up into the wall, the moisture present before the DPC will take time to dry out. Redecoration:

The injection should have been installed at a higher level and the plinth should have been angled to direct water away from the wall. Also a coat of Microshield Ultra should be applied to protect from penetrating damp. Launched in 2000, Dryzone Damp-Proofing Cream has caused a revolution in the treatment of rising damp. There are some unusual cases where the moisture is higher than a metre which means the technician will remove the plaster 300mm above the highest point where the damp or hydroscopic salts can be seen. Kiesol C is injected into a 12mm hole drilled into the mortar joint approximately 75mm-150mm above ground level. If this procedure is not possible then flanking works will need to be implemented to ensure there is no bridging of the damp course.

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 Course Injecting a damp proof course when there is a bridging of cavity walls. This will over time fill up with debris and can bridge the damp course, the moisture will pass through and cause damage. This is an essential layer that protects your home from rising damp. As this is a physical membrane, it may become damaged and may need to be replaced with another barrier. It can be replaced with chemical injections, paints, gels, water-proof plaster or water-proof cement coatings. Internal bridgingDryzone Damp Proofing Cream has been tested by numerous national and international testing houses, such as the BBA and the WTA. The effectiveness of Dryzone in walls with low or high levels of moisture saturation has been confirmed by laboratory and field testing. Simple & Easy To Apply Application The installation in the above photograph should have either taken place from the inside into a visible mortar joint or the external render should have been removed to find a mortar joint 150mm above ground level.

The removal and replacement of internal salt contaminated plaster is an important part of an effective damp-proof course. Salts left behind by rising damp are hygroscopic and can cause future staining independent of any issues with structural dampness.

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. When replastering you can use No Hydro Salt Inhibitor, our salt inhibitor is a high-specification plaster additive for use in sand-cement renders after the installation of a remedial damp proof course. The Importance of Effective Rising Damp Treatment Type of damp: Every type of damp requires a different course of action, some are more expensive than others This occurs when debris forms a bridge within your wall cavity. It can give water an access point to your home and can be remedied by removing the debris. Factors affecting damp proofing costs Kiesol C is the next generation Damp Proofing Cream, high strength, high performance, deep penetration, long lasting damp proofing for peace of mind for the home owner.

For heritage projects, or where replastering needs to be minimised Dryzone Renovation Plasters should be used. For Rising Damp treatment The active ingredients in the DPC cream then line the capillaries in the substrate to create a new DPC. An injected DPC effectively controls rising damp by creating a water repellent horizontal barrier. This method is sometimes referred to as a chemical damp proof course. Inject when there is a bridged cavity walls. Over time cavity walls fill up with debris and this can bridge the DPC. Moisture can then pass across and cause damage. If you inject a DPC in these circumstances it will not work. This cookie is used to a profile based on user's interest and display personalized ads to the users.A damp proof injection is a remedial damp proof course (DPC) used to damp proof buildings where the original damp course is damaged or deteriorated over time. Damp can affect your home in three different forms. Each form has the potential to cause damage to walls and can even affect the structural integrity of the house. The common types of mistakes that can occur from misdiagnosis of the damp problem and injecting a damp proof cream incorrectly are: Delay any decoration for 4-6 weeks following re-plastering and allow for good natural ventilation to enhance drying. Do not apply heat or accelerated drying methods. The patented Dryzone System now outsells our traditional chemical injection damp-proofing treatments and is the best-selling rising damp treatment on the UK market. Dryzone Benefits
