Extensions including garage conversions will often require extra damp proofing to be installed during the conversion, as the existing garage normally has a single skin design for walls and floors, which was not designed to conform to building regulations for habitable rooms. This damp proofing will have to be added to 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 most likely be achieved by employing 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 existing concrete floor, underneath 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 will have already been damp proofed, but this may need to be updated as part of the conversion to be able to adhere to current building regulations. The walls should be damp proofed to be able to protect the brickwork from rotting gradually as moisture sets in. This is done by either applying 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, and so is it important to ensure that your garage conversion incorporates suitable damp proofing methods.

Eyemouth is a village and also civil parish in Berwickshire, in the Scottish Borders location of Scotland. It is 2 miles (3.2 km) eastern of the main north-south A1 road and simply 8 miles (13 km) north of Berwick-upon-Tweed. It has a population of concerning 3,420 people (2004 ). The community's name originates from its area at the mouth of the Eye Water. The Berwickshire coast includes high cliffs over deep clear water with sandy coves as well as attractive harbours. An angling port, Eyemouth holds an annual Herring Queen Festival. Noteworthy structures in the town include Gunsgreen House as well as a burial ground watch-house constructed to stand guard against the Resurrectionists (body snatchers). Much of the features of a conventional angling village are maintained in the narrow roads and also 'vennels', giving shelter from the sea and well-suited to the contraband practice of old. Eyemouth is not far from the small villages of Ayton, Reston, St. Abbs, Coldingham and Burnmouth. The shore offers possibilities for birdwatching, walking, fishing as well as diving. Lodging consists of a number of hotels, B&B s and a vacation park. The geology of the location shows proof of folding that led James Hutton to introduce that the surface area of the planet had actually changed considerably over the ages.

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.
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.
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.
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!
