Pocster Posted June 15 Author Posted June 15 Going to ct1 just those top bits now . So ready for test again tomorrow 1
Pocster Posted June 16 Author Posted June 16 The results are …. Inconclusive! Still damp inside from yesterday- but no obvious drip . Will leave now and check every 30 mins …
Pocster Posted June 16 Author Posted June 16 I notice now these tiny gaps . Will ct1 them once a bit drier
Pocster Posted June 16 Author Posted June 16 You know I think it’s less . Whilst damp and I could see a droplet - not enough has come through to drip to the floor ! So wil ct1 that bit now !
Andehh Posted June 16 Posted June 16 When all is said and done, we need to draw straws for who will sneak round once a month and pour water down your walls, just to keep the story going..... this thread is becoming increasingly captivating for me now!! 😁 1 1

It’s so exciting ! . It’s like a Netflix series you watch which is a bit shit ( most of them ) but you’ve put time and effort into viewing each episode so you feel obliged to get to the spectacular cliff hanger final episode! . Maybe there will be a season 2 ? 🤔

Pocster Posted June 17 Author Posted June 17 I think the problem exists because the water pools there when overwhelmed. I could remove paving blocks to avoid that . But I’d rather it can deal with the pooling . Cleaned it up as best I can . Will ct1 the asphalt overlaps and that end again .

Just paint the lot with a flexible bituminous paint, concrete, felt, overlaps etc. You've too many maybe points so "tank" the lot I would.

Yeah I know ; but that’s hit and hope …. Do me a favour and link to a suitable product on Amazon ? Was not going to test tomorrow- give ct1 more time to cure . If Thursday it leaks I’ll blast that corner with what ever you suggest ; yeah bro ? 👊🏻
Pocster Posted June 17 Author Posted June 17 Once fixed I am going to do something with those pavers so it can’t pool there .

Pocster Posted Thursday at 12:07 Author Posted Thursday at 12:07 I would say it still leaks . Just a tiny bit damp - but was still damp from 2 days ago ! ( didn’t test yesterday ) .So will let it dry out and bitumen paint that area tomorrow
