Can you post a picture of the German Door thanks

ChiefSupplier55:


Yes there are gamern door

Coiner:


Even houses with the DPM? What could be the reason for that in the region.

The pictures below are the current state of a friends property. In and out has been affected as shown. A duplex. Any remedy to this at this stage?

Also notice the belt and tiles around the base didn't seem to have much cushion effect.

Yes both is impossible even impossible said I’m possibly so Remedy is is possible.💯

In one of my recent comments is said it if Dpc fail either with Dpm or not you can still experience risen Dampness as shown in the pictures.

I observe from the pictures not all effects is risen dampness.
Some seems like plumbing defect /leakage from the T tap Continuously this can lead to (Dampness)

If said to be Risen dampness is more tougher than Dampness


And I also state it that if the dpm is not properly installed it can leads to failure in the Dpc. I want us to also know that not any how nylon means Dpm.

To take care of risen dampness it has to be from foundation block work.
I believe Professional in the house understand that.

And also one must understand the nature of land is building on that’s to know how healthy the land is and which likely sicknesses is prone to.

All this information will guide us what of type of Dpm to be in used and Application.

Talking of "Dampness" I had to go this route to protect the external walls from dampness I hope this will work

You are doing well, seen countless examples of these being done overseas.

Is that bitumen?

This issue led me to research all the companies that sell the special chemicals that are used to protect exterior walls. Was surprised to learn that we have them in Nigeria.

All these measures are applied in major construction contracts.

It is homeowners practicing kobo kobo that don't, then later cry about dampness.

I look forward to hearing from you

You can trust us with your supply

Yes you are very correct that's bitumen, though I brought the bitumen and the protector in but youcan get the bitumen in Nigeria but I doubt if you can get the protector in Nigeria,this is how is been done over here

We need just one enlightened property owner to sue his developer and claim hefty damages.

Then the floodgates will open.

And the culture shift can begin.

For existing building, there is no other work around it, than that the roof must go and walls extended. Anything short of that would result in dwarfed head room.

I have experienced this problem first hand. In the 70s and early 80s, most parts of Itire/ Ikate including the present Aguda in old surulere in Lagos were all swamp before people started sand filling and building. They built mostly one floor houses. At first, those house were ok but fast forward to the 90s the problem started. My assumption is that because road were now construction which made those houses to sit below road level, water pressure tilted towards the buildings. Secondly, the foundations were not constructed with DPM.
Other than the walls were constantly damp, there was a more serious problem. Once it rains and the outside surroundings get flooded, it affects the inside.
You could visibly see water sipping throughout where the walls meet the floor. Within minutes you could have a river in your living space.
People would take different measures including sealants, tiles. Patching etc, none of these worked. Some broke the existing floor to make new one, with more concrete, it worsened leak.
The only thing that worked was to make another thick floor on the existing one without breaking the old floor. The problem with this is that it reduces the head room.
If you have a two floor building, you are stuck, you can’t raise the headroom for downstairs which is where the problem is but for bungalows, people went as far as removing the roofs, doors and windows to create more headroom.
This life na teacher, e go dey teach you lessons!

Exactly.. This captures everything I was saying.. This is also why I advocate 3 - 4 blocks headroom these days.

rotecch77:


You can’t believe it , I came across serious dampness in Niger state ( suleja) the dampness reached window base level both internal and external to the extent that the owner vacated the building .
In all my project now I do follow the full “definition of rising dampness”
It didn’t stated that such soils and area should be exempted ” means all soil and region needs dam proof.
That is my own simple understanding and prevention about it now

Exactly..

Yes it's better to prevent it.. I also assume every ground is prone to capillary action of water.

I've seen a house built on rocky terrain in Ondo and they still had wall dampness..

FEGEITOK:


No contest.

I am just sharing what is easier to get done.

raise the floor, raise the walls, raise everything above the floor is easier than digging down to make things right.

Yes i know it's just a discussion.

I was just pointing out resultant effect of placing another floor on the existing one.

New roof, New ceiling, new floor etc.. it's expensive.

Amosaloud:


Nigeria is not an earthquake prone country. I don't think our standard buildings are supposed to be earthquake proof. You can only be liable if it is the law that all buildings are earthquake proof. Large parts of Turkey are earthquake prone areas and it is mandatory that houses are built to particular specifications to withstand as much as possible (nothing is 100% full proof) these devastating forces.

The contractors will be made scape goat and I pity some of them..

Any building code you implement can only be tested when a real life even happens..

You can build and think you've done the right thing until nature comes calling.

Yes that is it “ prevention is better than cure”
2 years ago I treated a story building of dampness issue .( 6 flats) spent about 600k to get it done.
