Do damp walls affect your work?

Sometimes people ask whether they need to turn on construction heating before we arrive. This is not necessary; as long as the walls are visually dry (no water on the windowsill), we can simply get to work. The Renovlies and latex are vapour-permeable, so the moisture will gradually draw out of your walls over time.
It is possible that the property is too damp for the plaster we apply to dry properly — it may simply take too long to dry. It does need to be dry before we can continue. In that case, we can arrange one or more dehumidifiers for you.
