A common reason for patching up an existing internal mud brick wall is the presence of cracks or deterioration caused by settling, moisture, environmental factors over time or foundation movement. These cracks can compromise the stability of the wall and may allow moisture infiltration, leading to further damage and potential structural issues if left unaddressed. Patching up these cracks helps reinforce the wall and prevent further deterioration.
Mud brick walls are susceptible to moisture damage, especially in areas prone to high humidity or water exposure, such as bathrooms, kitchens, or basements. Over time, moisture can weaken the structure of the mud bricks, causing them to crumble, warp, or develop mold and mildew growth. Patching up areas affected by water damage helps restore the integrity of the wall and prevents moisture-related issues from spreading further, preserving the indoor air quality and overall health of occupants.
Our clients also ask us to address cosmetic imperfections or surface wear and tear. Over time, mud brick walls may develop stains, scratches, or discolored patches due to everyday wear, cleaning products, or accidental damage. Patching these with mud-based plaster helps restore the wall's appearance and maintain its aesthetic appeal.
