Damp Proofing in Halesworth

Extensions including garage conversions will usually require additional damp proofing to be added through the conversion, as the existing garage will often have a single skin design for walls and floors, which was not built to conform to building regulations for habitable rooms. This damp proofing will have to be added to walls and floors. Additionally, the roof of the garage conversion will need water proofing. The damp proofing for the floor of the garage conversion will usually be performed by using a damp proof membrane. This membrane is available in either solid or liquid form. The damp proof membrane will be put 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 a few garages, the walls will have already been damp proofed, but this might need to be updated as part of the conversion to be able 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 done by either employing damp proof membranes, waterproof rendering, or cavity insulation, depending on the type of walls that are already 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 ensure that your garage conversion employs appropriate damp proofing methods.
