Damp Proofing in Barking and Dagenham

Extensions including garage conversions will often require additional damp proofing to be added through the conversion, as the pre-existing garage routinely has a single skin design for walls and floors, which was not manufactured to be in accordance with building regulations for habitable rooms. This damp proofing will need to be added to walls and floors. In addition, the roofing of the garage conversion will require water proofing. The damp proofing for the floor of the garage conversion will in most cases be performed by employing a damp proof membrane. This membrane can come in either solid or liquid form. The damp proof membrane will be placed down either on top of the pre-existing concrete floor, below the new floor, or as part of both, depending on if the floor will be a solid or a floating floor. In some garages, the walls have already been damp proofed, but this may have to be updated as part of the conversion in order to comply with current building regulations. The walls should be damp proofed to be able to safeguard the brickwork from rotting gradually as moisture sets in. This can be performed by either making use of damp proof membranes, waterproof rendering, or cavity insulation, depending on the type of walls already present in the garage. Damp proofing is an important part of the building regulations that the garage conversion should comply with, and so is it important to make sure that your garage conversion incorporates appropriate damp proofing methods.

Barking and Dagenham

The London Borough of Barking and Dagenham is a London borough in East London, England. It lies about 9 miles (14.4 km) east of Central London. The borough was formed in 1965 by the London Government Act 1963 as the London Borough of Barking. The constituent parts were virtually all of the Municipal Borough of Barking plus the largest part of the Municipal Borough of Dagenham, the former location of which was transferred to Greater London from Essex. It's an Outer London borough and the south is within the London Riverside section of the Thames Gateway, which is an region designated as a national priority for urban regeneration. It covers a total area of 13.93 square miles.

Based on the 2011 census, the area features a population of around 198294, the majority of which reside inside the Becontree estate. Significant settlement of the region, mostly escaping slum conditions within the East End of London, occurred through the era when the new motor and chemical industries, like the Ford Motor Company plant at Dagenham were set up. Since the decline of these industries in the 1980s, employment has shifted much more towards service sector jobs.

Much of the borough is within the London Riverside section of the Thames Gateway zone and it is the site of considerable property building and other improvement. The local authority is Barking and Dagenham London Borough Council.
