Is this how to fix the problem or merely how to disguise it by hiding it and potentially moving the problem further into the building?

The series of static shots does not indicate truly whether this is a solution or sweeping the problem under the carpet....

So please explain how this solution works and the average cost...

no, it is sort of a "plastic plaster", which will be painted.

behind the plaster, the damp problem basically remains. how long it will last, time will tell.

to solve this, you need a special liquid injection into the walls, every 10 or 15 cm, and - or, maybe better and cheaper, you may dig a at least 1 meter deep channel around your house and waterinsulate it towards the foundation-earth with a mat.
to the bottom you lay a drainage pipe and make sure the drainage pipe is ventilated
fill the channel with gravel, not earth and get rid of your rain water = proper drainage to somewhere in the garden, preferably downhill...

The black on the walls looks like a waterproofing slurry something like this -

Bileşen Component A & B - Two Part waterproofing Slurry

There are several makes of slurry normally two part for different applications for , negative waterproofing, positive waterproofing or both -




I'm not sure how well the injection method would work on the hollow bricks they use here (and all over the Med) as the injection method relies on getting a continuous band of chemical seal very difficult if not impossible with hollow walls ! some old villas here are built using the bungaroosh type build material and the injection method could work with these walls (together with external waterproofing slurry) albeit these walls are very crumbly and probably best taken down and rebuilt..




Condensation caused by flats and villas not being ventilated properly is a different problem from rising damp and should be tackled differently.

Temperature + Humidity = Condensation. ..

Get air moving through the property and you will solve 90% of condensation problems. maybe fit one of these or something similar -

to slowly remove the hot are from the building or room or reverse the flow and turn it into a PIV (positive input ventilation system) which forces stall humid air out.

Lots of options but make sure you get the right diagnosis (condensation or damp) first or you'll go in circles.

Could this be a risk that the damp could move upwards if treated this way ?
