How Does an Injected DPC Work?
In the majority of cases, an injected DPC will involve drilling the mortar beds in a wall, and inserting a cream, which carries materials which are considered to be a PORE LINER. These pore lining materials are typically silane/siloxane, derived from silicone. How do they work?

If you read my previous post concerning capillary action, this discussed the mechanism behind the surface tension of water, and the way in which this, and the bond between water and the sides of a container (pores/capillaries in this case), causes water to curve upwards - this being observable with water placed in a clear glass - with that upwards curve
This upwards curve is called the meniscus curve, AND WHERE WATER CAN BOND TO A MATERIAL, that curve will be CONCAVE.

We provide a single point of responsibility protecting all stakeholders.
We take full accountability for the waterproofing process, serving as a single point of responsibility to ensure seamless coordination and execution. This approach protects all stakeholders by minimising risk, eliminating communication gaps, and ensuring the highest standards of quality and reliability throughout the project.
