Lovely job that! Done it loads myself…. Best bit is the shower afterwards to get yourself clean and feel less like 60 grit sandpaper lol! Looking forward to this series of videos!
It's the house that keeps on giving! Reminds me of the fun I've had/having with my house. Keep up the good work - really enjoying the project videos like this.
So the plaster had completely detached from the brickwork? I'd never thought you could remove plaster with your bare hands. Well, anyway, good luck with that job, buddy.💪
Oh not more tanking! Tanking is for swimming pools and shower/wet rooms, not a quick fix for moisture related problems. The gable end may very well be cold because its wet/damp?
It's definitely a condensation issue - that's why it's detached from the wall at the bottom and not at the top. Victorian houses like this were built to have a coal fire burning all winter so it's kept above the dew point. Obviously now we don't have that, and who can afford for the central heating to be on all winter or keep the windows open to prevent condensation? Getting the wall to remain above the dew point would be my thinking - probably with insulated plasterboard.
I would say general condensation and the roof leaking, cold walls. Plaster has failed over time because of damp and drying out in summer. Which then makes the problem even worse. Bedrooms are prone to condensation when sleeping in the room. Insulation is the only solution. Thanks
@@PaintingandDecorating Yes thanks. I've the same problem as that. Shall I hack the affected damp off and dry it, then replaster it? Then insulate the wall as its cold and never used! Worried about if sweating though.
Some of it is not dry rot.. Dry rot is wood decay caused by one of several species of fungi that digest parts of the wood which give the wood strength and stiffness. It was previously used to describe any decay of cured wood in ships and buildings by a fungus which resulted in a darkly colored deteriorated and cracked condition.
Check the joists could be dry rot wall should be treated with biocide spray also treat joists
Yes.. also if source of moisture is removed it will die off... Thanks

Thanks... Yes nice to get rid of all the nasty plaster.

Yes years of damp... Cheers
😢 This is exactly the type of content I like. Seeing you work with no music. Thank you!
5:46 turns into the hulk.........

No it has no cavity and this is a belt and braces approach... Fix render and tank... Thanks

@@chris-townson it's not condensation.. it's leaks and a small amount of condensation. No cavity and render needs fixing. Thanks
@@chris-townson Outside render, inside gypsum plaster = disaster!
@@idi0tdetectioninprogress whats the bet its blown/cracked cement render?!
If I goig to remove plaster why not remove lath as well. That way I can inbstall electric line, air seal and fiberglass insulation and then drywall.
The proof isn't in the pudding: "the proof of the pudding is in the eating".
Yes but it's twisted these days .
Isn't the saying - the proof of the pudding is in the eating? Once a pedant 😂 anyway good luck with the job mate.
Yes true.. may have to taste the job.. lol..

Don’t get the tanking idea. If it’s an external wall where is the moisture coming from, outside presumably?
Brill i love these big builds
Thank you .
At 4:15 did you find our what was causing that vertical damp?

Is that a 40mm Chisel?
So satisfying to watch 👍
Thank you..
👍👍👍
Thank you..
Is that plaster or plasterboard youre ripping out?
Plaster 👍
@@PaintingandDecorating wow that is coming off so easily!
Great Vid Thanks👍👍
Thank you
Does this kind of work even come under “paint and decorator”?
Dry Rot .

It was previously used to describe any decay of cured wood in ships and buildings by a fungus which resulted in a darkly colored deteriorated and cracked condition.
Actually found out it's wet rot..
@@PaintingandDecorating Yep had it in my first property. Recognised it instantly.
What’s is the growth between the plaster and the bricks and behind the radiator?
Not sure it's like a root system...
Looks like wet rot fungus to me
It looks lioe dry rot to me which can get serious enough to cause structural problems. I'm no expert on fungi but I'd want to research that a bit.
It is dry rot fungus
@@acidlumin Tanking over it is not the answer then. It needs proper treatment.
A lot more fun than putting it back up!
yes without a doubt ... but still looking forward to putting it back together. thanks
