Q: I have a 3x2m breeze block wall that is frequently damp which attracts mould and looks awful.The back of the wall is in soil and a beech hedge grows out of this.So digging out the back of the wall to stop any damp is not possible.Can you suggest a paint that would last and improve the visual appearance
A: This is not easy to resolve as the wall is in soil and moisture is probably leeching from the soil into the wall. Whatever you paint on the otherside will probably be affected by this moisture ingress from the earth. The damp proof paint which is available in four colours will help with the visual appearance and help to some degree with the moisture penetration. However, you may need to apply the paint more frequently because of how the wall is situated.
Q: I have a single brick garage, I am using it as a gym. Want to keep it bare brick, will this paint. Waterproof the walls so could hang tv on the brick?
A: The damp-proof paint can be applied to brickwork or masonry to act as a waterproofer. However, it is not clear and will colour the wall in whatever colour is selected. If you want to waterproof the bricks with a clear sealer then we would suggest using the masonry protection cream.
Q: Hi. I have a rendered house with a brick faced lower section incorporating the dpc. I am suffering some damp on internal exposed and north facing walls. The cavity is foam filled and I suspect moisture is penetrating. I plan to paint the brick black so this looks like a good solution. Should I seal the bricks first or just use this product on its own. Thanks.
A: The damp proof paint would also be a very effective sealer. You would not need to use a seperate brick sealer. Hope that helps.
