Extensions such as garage conversions will typically require extra damp proofing to be installed during the conversion, as the pre-existing garage routinely has a single skin design for walls and floors, which was not designed to conform to building regulations for habitable rooms. This damp proofing will have 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 most likely be achieved by by using a damp proof membrane. This membrane will come in either solid or liquid form. The damp proof membrane will be placed down either on top of the 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 have to be updated as part of the conversion to be able to adhere to 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 employing damp proof membranes, waterproof rendering, or cavity insulation, depending on the type of walls that are already in the garage. Damp proofing is an important part of the building regulations that the garage conversion should comply with, therefore is it necessary to make sure that your garage conversion employs appropriate damp proofing methods.
