Do it Yourself! Buy direct from the importer and save! |
No Problem ... Do it yourself with the same Dryzone as used by our professional technicians (unlike our competitors who offer a different DIY system to that used by their technicians). No liquids, no bottles, no mess, no smell. Being a cream Dryzone is the cleanest and easiest of all treatments to apply for approximately a third of the cost of professional application. Based on an average 3 bedroom home, which could be treated easily in two days by one person, the cost for Dryzone DIY would be approximately $1,400 including the hire of the application gun and postage. Dryzone is suitable for brickwork, bluestone, sandstone and rubble walls all of which can be treated from one side only up to 450mm of thickness. Another benefit of Dryzone is that you can treat cavity walls from one side only by simply drilling from the outside sleave across the cavity and into the internal sleave to within 10mm of your skirting boards. Dryzone can then be injected into both sleaves from the outside which means you don't have to take the skirting boards off inside and drill both sleaves. This saves both time and a mess inside your house. All you need is a good hammer drill that will take a 12mm masonry drill bit (easy to hire if you don't have one) and a hand held application gun which we supply. Just follow some simple instructions is done efficiently in very little time (one person can treat all walls in an average home in less than two days). Peace of Mind Assured... Dryzone has been used in Australia on thousands of projects from brick homes to stone churches and heritage buildings with 100% success. It has been awarded the prestigious British Board Of Agrément (BBA) certification and comes with a 20 year warranty. The BBA is a Government partnered testing organisation, which sets the standards that are recognised in Australia. Not all rising damp treatments have passed the stringent tests necessary to achieve BBA approval. Using a BBA certified product, such as Dryzone, is your assurance that the product has been proven effective for the purpose it was designed for. To check this accreditation click here. What will it Cost? ... First identify which walls need treating and determine the structure of each wall which will be single brick, double brick, solid stone, or rubble. Secondly check measure the thickness of any solid walls and work out a total length for each of the different size of wall that needs treating. One 600mm tube of Dryzone will treat approximately 6 metres of single brick or each 100mm thickness of solid wall for approximately $18 per metre. You also need an application gun, retail price $75, against which we will give you a full refund if returned to us in good condition (all you need do is to wash the gun after use with cold water). Your net cost of the gun is therefore approximately $10 for the return post. How to Order ... Go to the Contact Us Page and send in your details and we will phone you to discuss your situation to determine if Dryzone is suitable to solve your particular problem (it may not be rising damp). We then need to know the length and thickness of the walls that need treating to work out how many tubes of Dryzone will be required. Payment can be made by either by credit card, internet banking, cheque or money order. On receipt of payment we will mail the goods to you. Should you order too many tubes we will gladly refund your money on any tubes returned to us in good condition.

Drill holes at 100mm centres along the mortar course of the walled to be damp-proofed using a 12mm drill-bit. Holes should be drilled to a depth slightly less than the thickness of the wall - see full instructions for suggested drilling depths for common wall thicknesses. |
