Are the people living in these beautiful places having ten heads? Are the people ruling and establishing these beautiful places having twenty heads?

sometimes I wonder what is wrong with us in Nigeria. I always feel so sad when I watch movies and see developed countries and wish I was from there.

Why can't I be among those enjoying the luxurious lifestyle? Why can't Nigerians grow up to make us enjoy this luxury.

But you can't just apply protective paint if no effort is made to keep water away from the walls. The Gravitex over time will react with water and the problem will not go away. The solution is to keep water away from the foundation whatever method. Water and foundations are not good friends.
Noted. Thank you

There are damp proof creams that can be effectively used. First hack off all paints and plastered levels revealing the masonry works at about 3-6inches above the floor. After this is done, drill holes at about 6 inches interval all across the affected walls and begin to inject the cream into the holes. The cream later spreads and form like a water resistant sheet that prevent future dampness. Afterwards, replaster with "our" not so effective water proof cement and paint. While this has good success rates, it is not 100% effective as some cases are usually more terrible.

You can buy Dryzone Damp Proof Injection Cream on Ebay or Amazon. They are about the best in the market.
Thank you

If you're very sure the DPC was done properly, as only the external walls are affected, the solution is simple. Drain rain water away from your foundation. What I think may have happened, is you have breached your DPC; that is, the final level of your compound is higher than the DPC level. If you've laid interlocking, this may be higher than the DPC. Interlocking, final concreting or back-filling of the compound should be below the German floor. This is a common mistake by majority builders.

If your compound is higher than the DPC, capillary action will result in damp external walls. So drain water away from the outside walls of the foundation by bevelling the compound.
Thank you

beamNIGERIA:
Amongst many reasons that cause dampness on walls, will like you to note that high proportion of damp problems in buildings are as a result of rain penetration (non dpc related) and capillary action/rising damp (dpc related).

Preferring solutions, I advise physical inspection by an expert (depending on extent of defects), you don't want to create more mess or waste resources while defects persist.

Rain penetration/water seeping from the outer surface; due to drive rain most times(after hours of down pour) you have external walls socked and depending on type of soft sand used for plastering (usually of high salt content) the wall surface absorbs the water, gradually increase in size, travel through the brick and form dampness on the internal surface.
Water proof the surface with bituminous coatings and plaster (mixture of sharp and soft sand) with very good sealant e.g penetron or sikalatex and provide for effective slope to drain off rainwater.
As well, Plaster with coarse and fine sand.

Water rising from ground by capillary action despite having DPC; There is possibility that DPC is faulty or bad installation.
I advise you pave the surface abutting the building to prevent rain water seeping into the wall.
Or if considering interlock paving, make sure the floor has a damp proof course (DPC) which arrests the rising water.

If I haven't been able to mention any likely cause relative to your building, please sort for physical inspection by a water proofing contractor.
Thank you

Aventures:
quote author=mimini post=83419487]


It is the latter. Funny enough, the inner walls that divide the house into various rooms are not affected. If so, why are the interior walls not affected?
An engineer once told me that the type of soil in a location could cause it. I also noticed that some people actually go to far south to bring in white sharp sand to build in Abuja. I also noticed that very few buildings that do not have this problem have very high foundation. but I have also seen buildings with very high foundation having this problem. its sot common in Abuja.
I still need more advice and solution to this problem.
Plastered wall can also cause dampneas on the wall. If the soil around the wall on the lower part is very loose your plaster sand can get soaked and the dampness can rise up. Secondly, we often build our Chambers too closed to our build wall, this is wrong and can also cause dampneas since water flows thru the Chambers regularly and part of our building wall is used for the Chambers then you will often see the wall around that chamber dampened.

Solution: Apply 15-20mm tick layer of Gravitex painting above the height of the dampness you have noticed. This is the simplest and fastest solution. Other solution are cumbersome.
Thank you

This is termed as Capillary issues or Structural dampness.

This occurs when when a building's damp proof course is faulty or in-existent and allows for water or moisture to rise through the masonry works mostly from the foundation. These days, this issue is forestalled by using a damp proof membrane (A nylon sheet) that is spread meticulously beneath concrete floors.

In other cases (As most likely in yours), where a wrong foundation type is used (Mostly where strip and pad is used instead of raft), these issues occur. Structural dampness happens mostly on the ground floor.

While it can be remedied to a certain degree, the process is a bit cumbersome and can be expensive.
Could you please explain how to remedy the situation? It occurs only at the surrounding walls and not the inner partitioned walls. Thank you...

before we get more answers from our engineers in the house, we all know that water will always find is course.
I want to find out what type of foundation does the foundation has is it a raft foundation (casted) or strip foundation (block ), if it is the latter the seepage of water through the blocks will be rapid and if there is a little hole on the damp proof membrane ( Nylon) the water will always make a way through it.

Good day house. Please this is so important. What causes this rising dampness on walls. I have noticed it in many houses in Abuja. What can be done to rectify this problem. it flakes off the cement from the wall. Gives dark patches and swellings on screeded walls. I cannot even use wall papers cause it will soak the paper. I paint the wall after every raining season.
Mind you, the house I am living in now is a new house and german floor waterproof nylon was used to cover the whole floor before concrete was poured. Water proof cement was also used to screed the wall.

Please any solution because it is really embarrassing.
Thank you.

I went to gtbank this morning. The marketer said she sent my Tbill investment yesterday and still no transaction. My interest has still not bin sent to my account.
