Hi,
I have a house built sometime between 1750 and 1810, so no dpc installed. Part brick, part stone.
At some time in the more recent past, one of the rooms has had a concrete floor installed, I presume for damp reasons - theres an injected dpc as well but it doesnt work. The concrete also blocks air flow under other floors in the house. And the concrete is damp so I presume that if there is a membrane in it it has degraded/failed.
I am thinking of taking up the concrete, reinstating air bricks and flow, and putting a wooden floor down.
Does this make sense ? How deep is the concrete likely to be ? Im a bit concerned about what the foundations might or might not be like and undermining my own house.
Thanks for any suggestions
Mark
