Extensions such as garage conversions will typically require supplementary damp proofing to be added during the conversion, as the existing garage will often have a single skin design for walls and floors, which was not manufactured to conform to building regulations for habitable rooms. This damp proofing will need to be put into walls and floors. In addition, the roof of the garage conversion will require water proofing. The damp proofing for the floor of the garage conversion will most likely be performed 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 been damp proofed, but this might need to be improved as part of the conversion in order to meet current building regulations. The walls will need to be damp proofed to be able to protect the brickwork from rotting slowly as moisture sets in. This can be 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 an important part of the building regulations that the garage conversion will need to comply with, and so is it important to ensure that your garage conversion makes use of appropriate damp proofing methods.
The average cost of Damp proofing is £1500. Costs vary based upon the materials and the organisation selected. The upper price range can be as high as £1725. The material costs are in general about £375

Carnoustie is a town and former police burgh within the council area of Angus in Scotland. It's at the mouth of the Barry Burn on the North Sea coast. According to the 2011 census, Carnoustie has a permanent population of about 11394 people. This makes it the fourth biggest town in Angus. The town was founded in the late eighteenth century, and it grew rapidly throughout the 1800s as a result of the growth of the local textile market. Carnoustie benefited from the 19th century fashion for sea bathing. The arrival of the railway enabled the town to develop into a well-liked tourist destination, and it was promoted as the 'Brighton of the North' in the early twentieth century. Carnoustie may be regarded as a dormitory town. In addition to bringing business to Carnoustie, the opening of the railway also made the town attractive to the middle classes, who made use of it as a commuter town for Dundee, further boosting population growth in the town. Practically 50% of the employed population now commute to Dundee for work. It remains to be served by Carnoustie railway station, and significantly less so by Golf Street railway station. Its nearest main road is the A92. The town is best recognised for the Carnoustie Golf Links course that often hosts The Open Championship. While golf has been played on Barry Links since the 16th century, a formal 10-hole golf course was laid out in 1850 to the design and style of Alan Robertson of St Andrews. It was later improved in 1867 by Old Tom Morris, who added an additional eight holes. This course was redesigned during the 1920s by James Braid.

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.
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.
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.
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!
