Eliminate Rising Damp with Dryrod & Dryzone Express Replastering - The Dryzone System

http://www.safeguardeurope.com/produc... Rising damp occurs when groundwater rises up through walls, floors and masonry. Bricks and mortar can be very porous and contain many fine capillaries, through which water can rise. This can result in visible damp patches, salt-contamination and crumbling plaster on interior walls. Dryrod Damp-Proofing Rods: These patented 12 mm diameter fibre rods carry a powerful water-repellent material. They are simply inserted into holes drilled at regular intervals along a mortar course. Once inserted, the rods diffuse their water-repellent material along the mortar course, curing to form an effective barrier to rising damp. Dryzone Express Replastering: This specification utilises plasterboard, which is adhered to the wall using a special damp and salt-resistant adhesive in conjunction with a paintable salt inhibiting primer cream. This system provides the speed and convenience advantages of a traditional dot and dab plasterboard application and also provides a salt and damp-proof interior wall surface.
