Schrijver damp proofing – avoid like the plague
This system is yet another of the completely useless damp proofing cons which defaces your building. These horrible people will come and drill holes in the wall, and cement silly bricks into it which they claim will let damp evaporate. They claim on their website that the system is ‘researched’ – yet you’ll find NO independent research.
Amazing that they always target homes which are cement rendered, and usually occupied by old people who are easily conned. Often they are in little chocolate box thatched cottages. This is the same thing as the Holland Damp Proofing system which collapsed after defrauding thousands of people. We ran a concerted campaign to rid the world of the Holland system – and succeeded.
Don’t even consider one of these stupid systems. If you have a ‘damp’ problem – the issue is likely to be the very cement render they drill through. If all they did was to take the render off instead of inserting silly bricks, the house would dry out. A lot cheaper, and better for the house!
Schrijver Damp Proofing, Schrijver Damp Control, The Dutch Damp Proof System – are all names they use.
This is a house they have destroyed in a lovely little Shropshire village – doesnt it look just ridiculous – and horrible. This place is SMOTHERED in cement render. The simple solution to the issues of moisture in this house are two fold – remove the render and either re-point in lime, or re-render in lime. Internally, it needs better humidity controlled ventilation. This work is illegal – it’s criminal damage of a Listed Building. Interestingly, Shrijver complained to Google about the video and tried to claim it’s not their product. These criminals just try to muzzle anyone who dares to reveal their fraudulent con to the world. Didn’t work, Mr Gerardus Bernardus Franciscus Maria Schrijver -and there’s more revealing videos and evidence to come. They have come up with another con – the ‘Dry Brick’ – we’ll introduce that to the world shortly.
Have a look at the independent newspaper articles about the con of the schriver system below:
