Damp Proofing in Redruth

Extensions including garage conversions will typically require additional damp proofing to be installed through the conversion, as the pre-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 should be put into walls and floors. Furthermore, the roof of the garage conversion will require water proofing.

In some garages, the walls have already been damp proofed, but this may need to be updated as part of the conversion in order to meet 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 done by either making use of damp proof membranes, waterproof rendering, or cavity insulation, depending on the type of walls that are already in the garage. Damp proofing is an integral part of the building regulations that the garage conversion should comply with, and so is it vital to make sure that your garage conversion employs appropriate damp proofing methods.
