Damp Proofing in Frizington

Extensions such as garage conversions will usually require extra damp proofing to be added during the conversion, as the pre-existing garage will often have a single skin design for walls and floors, which was not designed to comply with building regulations for habitable rooms. This damp proofing will have to be added to walls and floors. In addition, 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 performed by utilising a damp proof membrane. This membrane is available in either solid or liquid form. The damp proof membrane will be placed 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 a few garages, the walls have been damp proofed, but this might have to be improved as part of the conversion to be able to comply with current building regulations. The walls should be damp proofed to be able to protect the brickwork from rotting slowly as moisture sets in. This can be done 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 important part of the building regulations that the garage conversion will need to comply with, therefore is it important to make sure that your garage conversion makes use of suitable damp proofing methods.

Frizington

Frizington is a town in Cumbria, England. Historically, it was a collection of farms and homes, yet became a merged village as a result of the mining (both coal as well as iron ore) chances in the area. The village is understood for its church, which was constructed in 1867-1868. Historically a part of Cumberland, Frizington is in the civil parish of Arlecdon and Frizington, which has a population of 3,678, the Borough of Copeland as well as the CA postcode area. On 2 June 2010, Frizington was the scene of the 2nd murder in the murder spree called the Cumbria shootings, when Derrick Bird fired his household lawyer, Kevin Commons. Stephen Holgate, an expert rugby league player with a number of clubs, came from Frizington.

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 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 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.
