Damp Proofing in Aberdare

Extensions such as garage conversions will often require additional 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 comply with 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 of the floor of the garage conversion will often be performed by using a damp proof membrane. This membrane can come in either solid or liquid form. The damp proof membrane will be put 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 already been damp proofed, but this may need to be improved as part of the conversion in order to comply with current building regulations. The walls will need to be damp proofed in order to safeguard the brickwork from rotting gradually 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 adhere to, therefore is it important to make sure that your garage conversion makes use of suitable damp proofing methods.

Aberdare

Aberdare is a large town in the Cynon Valley area of Rhondda Cynon Taf, Wales. The number of inhabitants was 31,705 at the 2001 census, which makes Aberdare the 13th largest town in Wales. It is 20 miles north-west of Cardiff and 22 miles north-east of Swansea.

Aberdare evolved into a busy industrial town in the 19th century, when it became a centre of iron and tin production. Later there were many coal mines in the town which expanded its population as people came there to work. Now that the coal mines have closed, the landscape has remains of its past but nature has restored it to its former beauty.

The town goes back far into history, with ancient burial sites and standing stones still visible today. There is a lot of Victorian architecture still standing in Aberdare that links with its interesting past.

Aberdare is a busy town with copious amounts of shops and restaurants. It is just a 40 minute train journey from Cardiff, so it's easy to enjoy the countryside around Aberdale and then jump on the train to take advantage of what the city has to offer.

If your home in Aberdale needs a new boiler, make sure that you look at quotes from no less than three respected companies.

FAQs

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 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.

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.

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!
