Yes a lime render with a breathable paint would help your damp situation
Depending on how strong mix of render is currently on the building will affect the damage done to the bungaroosh beneath. Extra dubbing out or more than one scratch coat may be required
You might wanna consider 2 openings to the eaves storage area, if you just have one it’s difficult to get to the stuff you put in 1st. Make sure the opening will fit your biggest item. It’s not that common to insulate the storage area either but not to difficult to do with space blanket, your...
Got housemaids knee 3 years ago. Been wearing workwear with knee pads in ever since. Not during summer though, just make sure I don't spend to much time kneeling
I render in brighton on bungaroosh using hydraulic lime no cement, then decorate with silicate masonry paint. But your right the vast majority just s and c, then the damproofing charlatans follow making a fortune as they go.
I got the Milwaukee dab, 170 paid for it. Great radio. Had the dewalt dab 13 months before the circuit board went. Dewalt didn't want to know. So no more s**t yellow tools for me.
Walked onto to a job last week, dark hallway. said morning pal as walked past someone, got halfway up stairs and realised the hello back I received was from a chick. she was cool though
You'll remember today forever, well done for getting your dad back on the trowel done you both the world of good. Enjoy every day. My mum has had that s**t for 6 years now.
I had the displeasure of using a makita Impact driver today, I left my Hilti charger at home. Makita was lacking the control the Hilti has. Tomorrow will be a better day.
Insta stik is the best sticking foam there is in my option, I tried them all. Wear gloves. If you wet board with a brush of water, not much. Spray foam to board then kiss board onto substrate, take off and then re stick after 2mins with props under length of timber it's golden in 20ish mins. The...
did the underside of a cast concrete staircase on Sat, the concrete v flat and smooth so just grit and skim. the interior designer (massive cock) was bitching about the price at start of day and booking me for 2 more more after i finished.
I do a lot of lofts and love doing these, much more of a challenge and satisfying. 2 coats of bonding and skim. worth taking bit of time to get right, the customers love them. i use a 6 inch super flex spatula (there not made that size anymore) for skim,its the nuts.
The membrane system itself isn't hard to use as long as you are careful when fixing it and follow manufacturers installation guide. The issue you have using a membarne in this instance is that you can't bring the finished wall out further than the cornice or it will look terrible. You would need...
I use the wykamol membrane over bungaroosh, have redone plenty of failed vandex jobs. Most of central Brighton is bungaroosh. It's a nightmare substrate to deal with.....
if it's lime plastered it will need to be painted with a breathable paint to compliment the system. I personally wouldn't vandex onto brickwork without rendering first. Have done loads of damp proofing around Brighton and treated bungaroosh.
Remove screws, put gaffer tape up where rad brackets were exactly. faint pencil line on floor or skirting. Plaster, then remove before final trowel. the skim won't stick to the tape and allows rad to go back in original location
