How does Dampout+ Damp Proof Cream work?
Once injected, chemicals in the Damp Proof Cream dissude through the mortar bed, spreading a water repellant resin. This creates a waterproof barrier to rising damp, which cannot then rise about the level that the Damp Proof Cream was injected. The Damp Proof Cream also acts to reduce the inter-molecular attraction between ground water molecules and the walls of the building, resulting in a reduction of capillarity, which causes rising damp.

Locate a mortar joint at least 150mm above external ground level. For internal walls, insert the cream in a mortar joint as close to the internal floor level as can be achieved.
-
Drill 12mm diameter holes horizontally in the mortar bed to a depth of 10mm less than the wall thickness at centres no greater than 100mm.
-

If walls are dry or mildly damp, spray water into the holes until absorbed by mortar. This is a very important step as it increases the effectiveness of the product.

Inject the Damp Proof Cream slowly into each hole using a standard 400ml caulking gun.

Extend the nozzle of the gun to the rear of the hole and slowly withdraw the nozzle as the Damp Proof Cream fills the hole.
-
Holes in external walls can be easily capped with SkilledBuild Injection Plugs or alternatively use silicone, resin or mortar.
-
