Hello everyone,
I need your expert advice and say already: 1000 thanks!
The problem:
An exterior wall of the basement (calcium silicate brick) has become leaky over the years and during rain (especially when it rains a lot and for a long time) water presses through the wall from outside. Insulation from the outside is unfortunately only partially possible because part of the neighbor's garage borders the exterior wall and excavating there is accordingly not possible. So now it must be sealed from the inside.
The question:
How is it best sealed from the inside?
Some say with silicate boards from the inside, because they absorb water during rain and give it off to the outside again during dry weather.
Others say with sealing slurry (+ insulation layer + stone wall), because then during rain simply nothing gets through anymore.
What is probably the better solution?
And what would be the disadvantages of the respective other solution?
Your solution:
?
Many thanks and have a nice evening!
