I live in a victorian terrace on a steep hill, my neighbours house is about 2ft above mine and I have a damp problem (plaster falling off) on the party wall (from floor to about 2ft high!) where my wall is below their floor. Presumably it's their damp cellar below the DPC. Can anyone help with a diy solution or is this a professional job? I had thought about removing the plaster back to brickwork, putting in some kind of plastic membrane (glue onto the wall?) and plastering over the top. Is that possible or even sensible? Thanks for any advice
