Stormdry Masonry Waterproofing Cream (5 Litre) - 25 Year Brick Sealer

I bought this product after recommendation, from Roger Fisby utube. I bought 3ltrs first to try. The cream applied to my bricks, very easily and very little dripping. However it did not go as far as the much cheaper liquid brick sealers. So I bought 5ltrs next and this went further. It does look funny, but dried quickly, leaving a share deeper. My neighbours looked inquisitively, but I painted on. I've spent a lot of money, but it doesn't t take long to use a tub. So my verdict. I've waterproofed, my bungalow and all the surrounding walls, after a few days I sprayed water on and it was perfect. The colour has deepened slightly, but it's not an unpleasant, appearance. It claims it works for for 25 years, unlike cheaper 3 year brands. I liked it and recommend.

Very impressed so far. Only time will tell long-term. Had a new gable end wall built for my loft conversion. Brand new expensive bricks to match the originals on my 80 year-old house. Then 6 months later we have the wettest winter for 200 years with winds from the south constantly soaking the wall. With no time for the bricks to dry out between the rainy days, they eventually absorbed the water all the way through and with no cavity wall for the water to drain into, the rain appeared on the inside of my house and dripped from the lintel above the window. The new bricks look nice but are clearly not a match for the 80 year-old originals when it comes to waterproofing. (How can brick companies sell bricks that are this absorbent?) Anyway, having done plenty of investigation on-line, I opted for Stormdry as the solution to the problem. I hoped the old maxim that you "get what you pay for" was true in this case as it is not the cheapest product around but we wanted an effective and long-lasting solution as I don't want to be having to put scaffolding up every few years to reapply a waterproofer. It went on very easily. We did it by brush to get into the nooks and crannies. You can certainly see where you have been and true to the instruction leaflet, the Stormdry was absorbed into the wall and the bricks returned to their original appearance after a day or so. About three weeks after applying, we hadn't had much rain so we soaked the wall by hose before the scaffolding came down, just to see how the wall would react. The water beaded and ran off the surface of the bricks. A couple of hours later the wall was dry to the touch which certainly would not have been the case before. It looks very impressive and l am hopeful that this will solve the problem long-term. Hosing the wall for half an hour is not exactly the same as the constant drenching the wall got during December 2013 but it gave us an idea of the effectiveness. Based on the quoted figures for coverage of the product, I bought too much rather than too little. Our bricks were so absorbent that they took twice as much as the stated amount (and I am convinced they would have taken even more if we had had more to apply). So I am hoping that the depth of effective waterproofing in my bricks is therefore also twice as much as it would have been. I recommend this product.

I needed to cover an outside wall that appeared to be letting damp in and then leaking into my garage the other side. The quality of this appears to good and there is noticeable less damp, so the leak prevention appears to be working. I wish it was cheaper, but it could be a lot worse. I recommend trying it if you have damp issues for outside walls.

Expensive but exceptional - this was applied to Tyrone Rustic Brick on an exposed chimney stack on a bungalow. When applying, recommended a dry chimney stack, and allow at least 8 hours after for no rain, but preferably 24 hours is best. Despite the rain from Storm Amy Over two days, no rainwater penetrated the brickwork indoors. From the spec. It suggests that even greater weather protection occurs as the product soaks in and cures. At the time I thought expensive, but given the repair that it has saved me having to do it was well worth the £124. That said I am left with half a bucket of product. You are advised Not to apply twice as it ruins the breathability of the product. The longevity of 25 years yet to be tested but if it lasts for 10 I will be happy. It is so easy to brush on. Thick and creamy consistency, paints on white and in about 10 mins turns clear and runny. Within about an hour it’s barely visible. I would suggest wire brushing the chimney first as recommended to remove any debris or lichen. If you have any dampness this is the cure. Cannot recommend product highly enough.

Worth every penny! Now it doesn’t work right away as it takes a little time to cure. I have read some reviews saying that it doesn’t work after testing. I found the same, then I left it and forgot about it. Maybe my wall was very bad and lots of water in already. I laid it on thick. I tested it after a few months on a dry day with a hose with a sprinkler gun and the wall was hydrophobic and where I didn’t apply it was normal. So give it some time, it could depend on how much water or damp is already in your wall. I’m going to buy some more. I would love to cover the whole side of my wall in this.

I recently applied Stormdry Masonry Waterproofing Cream to my home’s exterior sand stone walls, and the results have been outstanding. The cream’s thick consistency made application straightforward, adhering well without dripping. After curing, water beads off the surface, indicating effective water repellency.  One of the standout features is its breathability; it prevents water ingress while allowing moisture within the walls to escape, reducing the risk of damp-related issues. Additionally, the product is BBA-approved, offering peace of mind regarding its durability and performance.  A slight darkening of the brick was noticeable immediately after application, but this faded over time, returning the bricks to their original appearance. It’s worth noting that proper surface preparation is crucial; cleaning the masonry beforehand ensures optimal absorption and effectiveness.  Overall, Stormdry has exceeded my expectations, providing a reliable and long-term solution to protect my home from penetrating damp.

We had water coming into a downstairs room via the ventilation vents in the very wet and windy conditions we had over the winter. We initially thought it was the double glazing failing, but our normal firm said they were fine, despite the windows being over 25 years old. They suggested that it could be that our brickwork was porous and the rain so excessive (we face Southwest) that the normal weep vents in the brick couldn't cope and became overwhelmed. After some research I went for Stormdry Masonry Protection Cream, despite the cost, as it had good reviews. I found it easy to apply to the affected wall, in one morning (I am 67 but OK up ladders) and it dried invisibly. We have since had more heavy rain and SW winds but no more water ingress, so I am cautiously optimistic that it has worked. The inside wall has dried out and Stormdry's claim that it lets the brickwork breathe seems to be valid. After rain you can see the rainwater beading up on the brickwork and overall I am very pleased with it. Coverage is good too and I still have some left, just in case! I can easily recommend Stormdry Masonry Protection Cream, if you think you may have porous brickwork.

Again my parents wanted to colour and protect their wall in the garden, but because of their ages they wanted something that was easy to apply and durable. So I recommended this product due to the amount of paint you get and also the durability of it, My parents haven't got a huge garden but they did have a wall that ran half the length of the garden which this section was around 18-20 meters and the wall was breeze blocks. Now when they used the paint they did say that it wasn't too thick or too thin and because of this didn't cause a lot of mess. The paint did go on easy and dried in a good amount of time and even though the wall originally wasn't painted they only needed to do 1 coat and it did cover the whole wall without a problem once dried it didn't look patchy at all and did leave a good finish. So this is a great product to use and at a great price

Dekt goed

Increíble producto,heche éste producto en una segunda vivienda en el campo en la cual tenía algunas humedades,heche el producto por el esterior he interior donde tenía las humedades y después de haber pasado un Año,no han vuelto a salir las humedades.estoy muy contento con el producto.

Amazing product! Protecting my external brick wall from spalling due to moisture and rain damage. Strongly recommended!

Product werd verwerkt met borstel Silverline 15 cm. Product laat geen vlekken na op de gevel . De regendruppels dringen niet meer in de baksteen. Product is vrij prijzig maar doet wat het belooft.

Tolles Material (wie Puddig 😄). Lässt sich super verarbeiten. Habe es in einen Rolleneimer umgefüllt, ist einfach ohne Rückstände im Origenaleimer in den Rolleneimer herübergeplumps. Wurde von der Fassadenfarbrollle gut aufgenommen und ließ sich super auf die Wand aufbringen. Jetzt warten wir auf den nächsten Starkregen, ob dann die Wand keine Feuchtigkeit mehr aufnimmt und das tröpfeln über dem Fenster aus dem Fenstersturz aufhört. 🍀 UPDATE: Die Creme hält was sei verspricht, es hat mehrfach teils stark geregnet und dass Wasser perlt einfach ab. Es dringt keine Feuchtigkeit mehr ein und das Tröpfeln aus dem Fensresturz hat auch aufgehört. Super Produkt, sehr zu empfehlen! UPDATE2: Jetzt ist der Ansrich 1 Jahr auf der Wand und alles ist weiterhin dicht, und auch Starkregen perlt weiterhin ab. 👍🏻
