Damp Proofing in Bromley

Extensions including garage conversions will typically require extra damp proofing to be added as part of conversion, as the pre-existing garage will typically have a single skin design for walls and floors, which was not manufactured to comply with building regulations for habitable rooms. This damp proofing will need to be put into walls and floors. Moreover, the roof of the garage conversion will need water proofing. The damp proofing of the floor of the garage conversion will in most cases be achieved by utilising 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 pre-existing concrete floor, below 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 have already been damp proofed, but this may need to be updated as part of the conversion in order to comply with current building regulations. The walls should be damp proofed to be able to safeguard the brickwork from rotting slowly as moisture sets in. This is carried out 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 a part of the building regulations that the garage conversion should adhere to, and so is it vital to make sure that your garage conversion makes use of suitable damp proofing methods.

The London Borough of Bromley is south of the River Thames which flows through London, the capital city of the UK. The borough was formed, as were all other London boroughs, on 1 April 1965 by the London Government Act 1963. It comprised the former location of the Municipal Borough of Bromley, the Municipal Borough of Beckenham, Penge Urban District, Orpington Urban District and also the Chislehurst part of Chislehurst and Sidcup Urban District, which was transferred from Kent to Greater London. Bromley is the principal town in the London Borough of Bromley. It covers a total area of about 57.97 square miles. In accordance with the 2011 Census, the borough has a permanent population of about 309392 inhabitants. Inside this population, most were owner-occupiers. About 32.5% own their residence outright plus a further 42.73 per cent own their residence with a mortgage. Most of the population lives in the north and west of the borough, with an outlier at Biggin Hill within the far south. The borough shares borders with the London Boroughs of Lewisham and Greenwich towards the North, Bexley to the North East, Southwark and Lambeth towards the North West, as well as Croydon towards the West. Bromley is one of only six London Boroughs not to have at least one London Underground station inside its boundaries.

FAQs

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!

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.
