How Do I fix Damp In Walls ?

 

I have actually had customers with damp wall problems who have bought our aluminium wall panels and nailed them to marine ply attached to their interior walls. These are customers who have previously battled with damp problems for years. It must be attached using Marine Ply or, better still, Form Ply as the sub strate, so that the moisture is kept away from the metal.
