Product information

Dryrods Deliver the Correct Dose Every Time Traditional rising damp treatment methods utilise cream or liquid injection. These methods can be prone to operator error leading to under-treatment and DPC failure. Due to their unique patented design, Dryrod Damp-Proofing Rods deliver the correct dose of active ingredient every time. Extensively Tested and Internationally Approved Laboratory testing has proven that Dryrod Damp-Proofing Rods out-perform competing treatment methods, even in highly-saturated walls and freezing temperatures. They have also been approved by the British Board of Agrement and the German WTA organization. 100% Active Ingredient for Maximum Water Repellency It is not possible to infuse 100% pure active ingredient into a traditional Damp-Proofing Cream. Thanks to their unique fibre rods, Dryrod Damp-Proofing Rods are saturated with 100% silane/siloxane. Only the pure active ingredient diffuses into the wall, in a controlled dose that ensures consistent application. Cheaper creams may seem more attractive, but they often only contain around 25%-50% active ingredient. They cannot out-perform Dryrod.

Features and benefits

Dryrod Damp-Proofing Rods are patented fibre rods that carry a powerful water-repellent material. They are simply inserted into holes drilled at regular intervals along a mortar course. Once inserted, the rods diffuse their water-repellent material along the mortar course, curing to form an effective barrier to rising damp. They have been scientifically proven to eliminate rising damp even in highly-saturated walls. This performance has also been internationally tested and approved.

Easy and quick to install although I’ve only done 20m of single brick internal walls so far, cutting the rods in half. No special equipment required although I think the tool for cleaning the dust from the drilled holes is probably essential. I could see the chemicals dispersing into the masonry over a 7 day period. 12 months after I did the first 5m run there is no sign of any damp. Hopefully a long term diy solution.

Too early to say if effective but easy to install and I could see the liquid seeping into the mortar and bricks so hopefully they will work. Easy to cut with a sharp craft knife for 41/2 “ walls.

Easy to use product for DIYers

Difficult to provide a full review as the product’s effectiveness will only be proven over time. However it was easy to use with good preparation.

Installed into a solid concrete block wall only a two weeks ago. The wall suffered from rising damp resulting in condensation onto facing plaster. This has now been removed and external render raised aboved Damp Course. I plan to put Plasterboard with bonded insulation fixed directly onto wall surface and then skim coat plaster. All I can say watch this space. The service and advice from the company first class.
