Damp Proofing in Chessington

Extensions including garage conversions will typically require supplementary damp proofing to be installed during the conversion, as the existing garage will often have 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 should be added to walls and floors. Furthermore, the roofing of the garage conversion will require 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 is available 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 whether the floor will be a solid or a floating floor. In some garages, the walls have been damp proofed, but this may need to be improved as part of the conversion to be able to adhere to current building regulations. The walls should be damp proofed to be able to safeguard the brickwork from rotting gradually as moisture sets in. This is performed by either implementing 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, therefore is it vital to make sure that your garage conversion employs suitable damp proofing methods.

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