This isn't really a tiling issue but someone may be able to help......
I have just started a job in an old single storey extension which was converted into a bathroom some time ago, on removing the tiles most of the pb came with it and was sodden (even in the dry areas) which was worrying to say the least. On further inspection the walls are single skin brick with no dpc and the water is pouring through the walls. there is no insulation so i was going to batten out the walls and insulate before putting a mix of cement board and pd on top. My question really is what measures should i take to remedy the damp before i reboard?
