The problem

What we found

Damp patches appearing on an upstairs bedroom wall after every spell of driving rain. The west-facing gable had cracked cement render and open pointing above it.

The solution

What we did

Loose render removed, brickwork repointed in a matching mortar, gable re-rendered in a breathable system and treated with a breathable water repellent. Internally, damaged plaster removed and the wall re-skimmed once dry.
