Damp - Treatment Methods Q I have a 100 year old house with 9" solid walls which has been in need of damp-proofing for some considerable months. I have had some quotes and they all say I need to re-plaster. I have seen an ad for a firm with a Dutch system which they say "Damp-proofing without the need for re-plastering". If all the other firms say it needs re-plastering why doesn't the Holland system? A Any system or procedure that claims to prevent or control rising damp in a wall and also claims that no re-plastering is necessary to achieve a dry decorative surface should, in our opinion, be viewed with a considerable amount of caution. Rising damp in a wall, where the water is derived from the ground, brings with it in solution salts and minerals that accumulate at or near the surface of a wall where evaporation takes place.

Section 21 Notice To Quit Ending Tenancies Section 21 Notice to Quit What is a Section 21 Notice to quit A 'Section 21 Notice to Quit', so called because it operates under section 21 of the Housing Act 1988, is the notice a landlord can give to a tenant to regain possession of a property at the end of an Assured Shorthold Tenancy (AST). A landlord has the legal right to retain possession at the end of a tenancy but must follow the correct legal procedure, which includes serving a section 21 notice. Section 21 of the Housing Act 1988 is divided into subsections with different procedures to be followed depending on whether the Section 21 notice is served before the fixed term has come to an end or after, when the tenancy has become a periodic tenancy. When can a Section 21 notice to quit be issued? Under section 21 of the Housing Act 1988 as amended by the Housing Act 1996, a landlord has a legal right to get his property back at the end of an assured shorthold tenancy.
