Damp Proofing in Haddington

Extensions including garage conversions will often require supplementary damp proofing to be installed as part of conversion, as the existing garage routinely has a single skin design for walls and floors, which was not built to conform to building regulations for habitable rooms. This damp proofing will need to be put into walls and floors. Furthermore, the roofing of the garage conversion will need water proofing. The damp proofing of the floor of the garage conversion will in most cases be achieved 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 whether 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 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 is carried out by either applying damp proof membranes, waterproof rendering, or cavity insulation, depending on the type of walls already present in the garage. Damp proofing is a part of the building regulations that the garage conversion should comply with, therefore is it vital to make sure that your garage conversion incorporates suitable damp proofing methods.

Haddington

The Royal Burgh of Haddington is a community in East Lothian, Scotland. It is the major administrative, social and also geographical centre for East Lothian, which as a result of late-nineteenth century Scottish local government reforms took the type of the region of Haddingtonshire through from 1889-1921. It lies concerning 17 miles (27 kilometres) eastern of Edinburgh. The name Haddington is Anglo-Saxon, dating from the sixth or seventh century AD when the area was incorporated right into the kingdom of Bernicia. The town, like the rest of the Lothian region, was delivered by King Edgar of England as well as entered into Scotland in the tenth century. Haddington obtained burghal status, one of the earliest to do so, during the regime of David I (1124-- 1153), offering it trading legal rights which encouraged its growth into a market town. Today Haddington is a small town with a population of fewer than 10,000 individuals; although throughout the High Middle Ages, it was the fourth-biggest city in Scotland after Aberdeen, Roxburgh as well as Edinburgh. In the middle of the community is the Town House, integrated in 1748 according to a plan by William Adam. When initially developed, it inheld a council chamber, prison and also sheriff court, to which assembly rooms were added in 1788, and also a new clock in 1835. Neighboring is the Corn Exchange (1854) as well as the Court (1833 ). Other neighboring noteworthy sites consist of the Jane Welsh Carlyle House, Mitchell's Close as well as the birthplace of writer and federal government reformer Samuel Smiles on the High Street, noted by a commemorative plaque.

FAQs

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.

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!
