Rising Dampness<br />

Dr. Fixit DamPFree<br />

Methodology<br />

Surface Preparation<br />

Remove Paint up to bare masonry surface<br />

from affected area by wire-brushing or other<br />

suitable means. Wipe surface with wet cloth to<br />

remove loose particles from Cement Plaster.<br />

Fixing of nozzles<br />

Drill holes with 12 - 15 mm bit at 45° angle,<br />

penetrating ¾ width of the wall. Starting from<br />

skirting level with 300 mm distance between<br />

each hole horizontally and 300 mm to 400 mm<br />

vertically from ground level, from centre to<br />

centre. A zigzag pattern to be formed to cover<br />

the entire area to be injected for effective<br />

result.<br />

Fix the perforated PVC nozzles and seal them<br />

secure with Dr Fixit Instant Leak Plug and<br />

allow to set for one day before starting work.<br />

Use grouting pump with minimum 2 Bar (2 kg<br />

/ cm2 ) pressure capacity to pump the Dr Fixit<br />

Dampfree in wall.<br />

Dilution of Dr. Fixit Dampfree depends upon<br />

the severity of problem, from 1 :1 to 1:5 with<br />

clean water.<br />

Remedial solution for rising dampness<br />

Injecting Dr. Fixit Dampfree<br />

Inject diluted Dr. Fixit Dampfree through<br />

the nozzles till the back pressure is felt. Move<br />

to next nozzle and complete the process<br />

by injecting through all fixed nozzles in the<br />

affected area. Then cut off the nozzles at the<br />

surface level and seal the holes using PMM<br />

modified with Dr. Fixit Pidicrete URP.<br />

Level the surface with plaster and allow the<br />

surface to dry completely before proceeding<br />

for painting.<br />

Dr. Fixit SolySeal<br />

Surface Preparation<br />

Surface must be clean and free from dirt, dust,<br />

grease, oil, etc. Remove old paint /damp wall<br />

with blisters/paint peel/loose particles etc. by<br />

wire-brushing or other suitable means up to<br />

bare masonry surface.<br />

Repairs shall be carried out using polymer<br />

modified mortar modified with Dr. Fixit<br />

Pidicrete URP.<br />

Priming<br />

Prime the surface with Dr. Fixit Solyseal<br />

diluting with water in 1:1 ratio evenly and allow<br />

it to dry completely.<br />

Application<br />

Apply first coat of Dr. Fixit Solyseal.<br />

While the first coat is still wet, embed a layer<br />

of fabric mesh reinforcement.<br />

Brush or roll over the embed mesh at right<br />

angles to the 1st layer of Dr. Fixit Solyseal to<br />

ensure that the mesh is fully covered.<br />

Take care that the mesh is overlapped at least<br />

50 mm at edges and by 100 mm at ends.<br />

bituminous coating<br />

Cold applied flexible bitumen system for re-roofing after the<br />

removal of old bituminous treatments.<br />

Apply second coat of Dr. Fixit Solyseal and<br />

allow it to dry completely.<br />

Apply one more coat of Dr. Fixit Solyseal as<br />

top coat and allow it to dry.<br />

Lay 50 mm thick sand cement protection<br />

screed with proper slope for efficient draining<br />

of rain water.<br />

Provide control joints in the screed to avoid<br />

crazing and cracking of the screed. Fill joints<br />

with polysulphide sealant Dr. Fixit Pidiseal PS<br />
