If I have the rendering removed from my extension, seal the bricks & re-rendered the walls would that help eliminate damp problems? If not, what is recommended?

That is too little information to deliver an accurate answer. Is the damp only at the bottom of the wall or everywhere ? Is it brick or block? Are the tops of the walls exposed to rain or covered by the roof? Is the damp in specific patches , are there any stains or salt patches?
