Hello everyone,
We are in the middle of an extension with timber frame construction on a solid house.
In other words: the roof structure is gone, the walls and two chimneys have been dismantled, and the flat, bare concrete ceiling is exposed.
The construction company has now welded expensive V60 bitumen sheets and covered everything with tarps after the leveling strips were applied – as moisture protection.
Unfortunately, unsuccessfully.
In the depressions of the tarp caused by the already applied strips, huge pools of rainwater have formed. However, through other holes in the tarp, water has collected underneath on the bitumen sheets. These did not remain waterproof, so the masonry around the chimneys on the ground floor and also down to the basement has soaked up a lot of water. Now the question is how to proceed further. The company has set up two drying devices: "it will dry again."
The wall has turned yellowish, everything smells musty after a week now. Almost all interior walls are affected, also a wooden ceiling and part of a kitchen.
Shouldn't the plaster be completely removed here, etc.? How do we proceed from here?
Meanwhile, the upper floor and the roof are in place so that no new water can enter.
Best regards
Daniel
