Damp Proofing in Camborne

Extensions such as garage conversions will often require extra damp proofing to be added during the conversion, as the pre-existing garage routinely has a single skin design for walls and floors, which was not designed to be in accordance with building regulations for habitable rooms. This damp proofing will have to be put into walls and floors. In addition, the roofing of the garage conversion will need water proofing. The damp proofing of the floor of the garage conversion will most likely be performed 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, 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 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 slowly as moisture sets in. This can be accomplished by either utilising damp proof membranes, waterproof rendering, or cavity insulation, depending on the type of walls that are already present in the garage. Damp proofing is an important part of the building regulations that the garage conversion will need to adhere to, therefore is it vital to ensure that your garage conversion makes use of appropriate damp proofing methods.

Camborne

Camborne is a town and civil parish in west Cornwall. It forms the western edge of a conurbation composed of Camborne, Pool and Redruth. Numerous settlements comprise the civil parish, like Beacon, Croft Mitchell, Higher Condurrow, Penponds, Roskear Croft, Treswithian Downs and Troon. The town was among the richest tin mining areas in the world throughout the 18th and 19th centuries, which considerably transformed the town and its landscape. The opening of Dolcoath Mine in 1860, referred to as the 'Queen of Cornish Mines', went as deep as 3500 feet, which was one of the world's deepest and oldest mines until closing in 1921. Camborne was also home to the final working tin mine in Europe, South Crofty, until its closure in 1998. The population in 2011 was recorded as having risen to 20845, being a part of the biggest conurbation in Cornwall. A big urban renewal programme is currently taking place in the town by CPR Regeneration, one of the government's Urban Regeneration companies. This involves driving the re-development of the previous industrial land, and attracting and supporting local businesses to assist them to create sustainable jobs to boost employment opportunities in the town for its inhabitants. It has also been involved in the improvement of sites and key projects, like the east-west link road between Redruth and Camborne.
