Damp Proofing in Devizes

Extensions such as garage conversions will often require extra damp proofing to be added during the conversion, as the existing garage typically has a single skin design for walls and floors, which was not manufactured to be in accordance with building regulations for habitable rooms. This damp proofing will need to be put into walls and floors. Additionally, the roof of the garage conversion will require water proofing. The damp proofing for the floor of the garage conversion will often be performed by utilising 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 a few garages, the walls will have already been damp proofed, but this might need to be improved as part of the conversion to be able to comply with current building regulations. The walls will need to be damp proofed to be able to safeguard the brickwork from rotting gradually as moisture sets in. This is performed by either employing 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 will need to adhere to, and so is it important to ensure that your garage conversion makes use of suitable damp proofing methods.

Devizes

Devizes is a market community and also civil parish in the centre of Wiltshire, England. It created around Devizes Castle, an 11th-century Norman castle, and also obtained a charter in 1141 allowing regular markets, which are held weekly in a free market location. The castle was besieged throughout the Anarchy, a 12th-century civil war in between Stephen of England and also Empress Matilda, and again during the English Civil War when the Cavaliers (Royalists) raised the siege during the Fight of Roundway Down. Devizes stayed under Royalist control till 1645, when Oliver Cromwell struck as well as required the Royalists to surrender. The castle was destroyed in 1648 on the orders of Parliament, as well as today little remains of it. From the 16th century Devizes came to be recognized for its fabrics, and also by the very early 18th century it held the largest corn market in the West Country, creating the Corn Exchange in 1857. In the 18th century, developing, curing of tobacco, and also snuff-making were established. The Wadworth Brewery was founded in the community in 1875. Standing at the west side of the Vale of Pewsey, the community has to do with 10.5 miles (16.9 kilometres) southeast of Chippenham and also 11 miles (18 km) east-north-east of the county town of Trowbridge. It has almost five hundred detailed buildings, some noteworthy churches, a city center and an eco-friendly in the centre of the community.

FAQs

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 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.

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.
