Old Plaster of a Stone Built Terraced House and Climbing Damp

Rising damp under the staircase was stopped or reduced by hacking off the old plaster. The damp was climbing up through the plaster where the concrete floor did not exist.
However, hacking off the plaster was not a solution for damp on the inside of INSIDE interior walls. The evidence of inside damp is found by drilling into the interior wall and observing the drill tip. 
I would be interested in tried solutions to riisng damp in stone built houses.

Schrijver Advertizement

Parts of the description of the Schrijver systeem read like an advertisement. I'll believe that it "has become a great success!" when I see a chronological comparison of its adoption over other methods of dealing with rising damp. Proof of "full customer satisfaction" and the results of the "extensive laboratory tests" and "results of test houses" would also be useful. —Preceding unsigned comment added by 128.221.197.20 ( talk) 19:59, 24 September 2007 (UTC) reply

Yup, that's a striking example of advertizing. The great success appears to be limited to a comparatively small number of houses in the Netherlands - at least that's how it sounds.
That's what sent me to the talk page. No one has deleted? I will, because:
1. It doesn't describe it.
2. It doesn't describe why or how it works.
3. It describes only a marketer's reasons why you should accept it, with no--and I mean NO--technical content.
Actually, ALL of the Schrijver system section sounds like an advertisement. —Preceding unsigned comment added by 75.42.190.138 ( talk) 00:47, 9 January 2008 (UTC) reply
