  • Flat below me completed on their sale today.
    Spoken to various contractors, still not got a quote, wall pissing wet still when it rains and I my neighbour hasn't been available for a chat for 3 weeks.

  • Such a chore for you. It really is a building issue not a flat issue.

    Sell?

  • Neighbour not available for chats, that sounds like a nightmare.

  • Possible as well they've used a cement based render instead of lime, so 'more waterproof' until it eventually gets a tiny crack somewhere then it channels it down against the stonework or brick work until it gets in, because with cement it then can't evaporate back to the outside world like its supposed to. See it on chimney's and patchs all over Scotland, fixes the problem for a few months or years and then turns REAL nasty.
