Murs anciens, gérer l'humidité, salpêtre, drainage, enduits au ciment

Old walls, made of stone, rammed earth, cob, or half-timbering, built without a damp-proof course. They are often affected by the presence of water, either due to rising damp or poor management of its flow within the wall. What can be done to improve them? Here I explain what is happening, what is often imposed on them, what would be desirable to do… and what would be highly desirable to avoid, or even what should be strictly forbidden! ▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬ 🏡 To learn more 🏡 ▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬ Thermal comfort - Sustainable housing - Effective renovation // My fundamentals for effective renovations: 👉 https://formation.soigner-l-habitat.c... // 150 reference articles: Soigner l’habitat: https://www.soigner-l-habitat.com/yd // My two books published by Terre Vivante Ecological house: build or renovate? https://www.terrevivante.org/boutique...

A Habitologist is an independent professional who guides clients to make their homes more comfortable, energy-efficient, healthy, and sustainable. They identify the factors that influence their comfort and provide the tools to make informed decisions based on a thorough understanding of their living space. Their impartial and objective approach ensures advice focused on their needs, free from commercial influence, thus preventing often unnecessary renovations. They help clients reduce the environmental impact of their homes and save energy. Finally, he offers solutions for preserving their homes and heritage in the long term. ▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬ 🏡 Who am I? 🏡 ▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬ // Claude Lefrançois, aka Papy Claude After 40 years in the building industry, including 20 years dedicated to sustainable building, I felt the need to share the knowledge and experience I had accumulated. As an author with Terre Vivante and host of the YouTube channel “Papy Claude,” I now devote myself to this sharing by building a network of professionals: the habitologists. The goal of this network is to help residents achieve their objectives: to attain comfort while significantly and genuinely reducing their footprint (greenhouse gas emissions, resource use, etc.), and to respect the relationship between residents and their homes (housing sustainability, budget, etc.).
