Is anyone else experiencing damp in their properties and what have they been able to do about it?  I know some people have had their cladding removed and reapplied.  Did that sort out the problem.

Hi, Just to let you know I have a property on phase 3 and when I returned there on 1st of December there was a real fusty smell and there was damp in 2 of the bedrooms. They have this week removed all of the first row of perimeter tiles and cladding. They have sealed it and are replacing the tiles. I am due to go out on 25th to make sure that it has all been done. I am fortuate that my cousin and also his mother live on the site and have both had the problem with the damp and in both cases the work has rectified the problem. I hope you are successful in having it sorted, Trevor 158

Hi,

Hi. I'am at 101 and have had the same problem with dampness. In November El Trampolin removed the outside tiles and cladding, rendered and applied a grey elastic paint, the replaced the tiles and cladding. On the inside they removed the plaster and let it dry for a couple of days and then applied new plaster. I was then told I would have to wait for the plaster to dry before painting would be carried out.

In December we returned and found the new plaster to be black with mould.

In January Trampolin removed the earth along the side of the villa where the dampness first started. They then excavated a trench along the full side of the villa all the way to the main drain. They poured concrete into the trench and then painted it with the elastic paint. They then backfilled the trench with gravel. The theory is that the earth around the vilaas holds water for a long time and is then slowly released into the foundations causing dampness. They hope that the wetness will collect on the gravel and run down to the main drain. It remains to see if this is effective.

I have started to install guttering around the villa to prevent rainwater from the roof soaking into the cladding on the lower walls around the villa. I have also installed new drains for the rain water to drain into.

I will attempt to post some photos on the site.

Ernie & Chris
