Doesn't need to be built entirely of Nori bricks.2 courses constitutes a damp course.

At least that's the theory.:jimbo:

As Willow said, a very sad day for Accrington. :(

Ps....I saw the news and I think the council leader would soon be slagged off if he didn't make a comment on something like this. :rolleyes:

I have installed damp proof courses into nori brick walls, the brick itself will not take the fluid, the mortar is porous and therefore the dpc had to be installed into the joints, some dpc companies will drill the bricks and try to inject fluid into them, waste of time, the mortar is what needs to be damp proofed, not the brick!

Is NORI the name of the company or the brick?
