Damp Proofing in Beckenham

Extensions including garage conversions will often require extra damp proofing to be added as part of conversion, as the existing garage typically has a single skin design for walls and floors, which was not built to be in accordance with building regulations for habitable rooms. This damp proofing will need to be put into walls and floors. In addition, the roofing of the garage conversion will need water proofing. The damp proofing of the floor of the garage conversion will in most cases be performed by by using 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, underneath 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 been damp proofed, but this might need to be improved as part of the conversion in order to comply with current building regulations. The walls should be damp proofed in order to protect the brickwork from rotting slowly as moisture sets in. This can be accomplished by either applying damp proof membranes, waterproof rendering, or cavity insulation, depending on the type of walls already present in the garage. Damp proofing is a part of the building regulations that the garage conversion will need to adhere to, therefore is it important to make sure that your garage conversion employs suitable damp proofing methods.

Beckenham

Beckenham is a district in the London Borough of Bromley. It borders Beckenham Place Park and Bellingham within the London Borough of Lewisham. It is 13.5 km south east of Charing Cross.

Beckenham was a small village in the borough in Kent with a lot of land serving as private parkland until the railway was built in 1857. Right after that, an entrepreneurial family began constructing villas which brought on the population to rise massively from just 2,000 to 26,000 between 1850 and 1900. Since 1900, housing has been built at a steadier pace, which means the populace is starting to balance out. At the 2011 census, the populace stood at 56,668.

The district is served by three main railway stations as well as six more inside the post town. There is also two Croydon Tramlink stations towards the west of the area. Transport for London buses serve the Beckenham area to link it with other towns including Bromley, Catford, Croydon and Crystal Palace.

Beckenham is recognised for its many chapels. St George’s Church is the primary parish church and stands at the centre of the district. It dates back to around 1100, but was majorly rebuilt in the end of the 1800s. It consists of a 13th century lynch gate that's regarded as one of the oldest of its sort in England.

FAQs

How can I tell if my property has damp?

There are a few visible signs of damp, although it often goes undetected. However, in older or empty properties, this made become detectable through its smell. These include peeling paint and wallpaper, crumbling plaster, mould growth, black spots or spores on walls and ceilings, and rotting skirting boards and flooring.

Why is it important to fix a damp problem?

Damp is a serious problem, particularly if you live in an old property, because it can lead to structural damage. This will cost you big money and could be very dangerous, to yourself and the property. Take damp seriously and get it inspected and resolved as soon as you discover it!

How quickly can I redecorate my walls after damp proofing has been installed?

You should make sure that all signs of damp have gone before you redecorate your walls. If you want to paint your walls with a water-permeable emulsion paint, you can usually do this after 1 or 2 months. For other types of decoration you should wait longer.

How can I tell what type of damp I’ve got?

Signs of rising damp tend to be close to the ground, usually no higher than a metre. It usually works its way up walls in horizontal lines. Penetrating damp usually develops in patches and can often be much higher up. For more advice, speak to a damp proofing professional.
