Dot n' Dab on old/poor walls
Is dot and dab now the most popular method of covering a wall?
Half of our 19th century town house is currently stripped down to the brickwork which is very poor. The plaster wants to dot and dab everywhere. We have damp & contaminated walls(salts) in the kitchen. I've installed a resin DPC, neatralized the salts and plan to use a waterproof plaster membrane on the lower 1.5 metre of the walls to make sure whatever finish is used the damp will not penetrate to the surface. I have no experience of dot and dab really, but the plasterer(very experienced) seemed to recommend. Any other options with old tatty/ uneven brickwork?..... and any other advice? |
