Extensions such as garage conversions will usually require supplementary damp proofing to be added as part of 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 should be put into walls and floors. Moreover, the roofing of the garage conversion will require water proofing. The damp proofing for the floor of the garage conversion will usually be performed by employing a damp proof membrane. This membrane can 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 will have already been damp proofed, but this might need to be updated as part of the conversion to be able to meet current building regulations. The walls will need to be damp proofed in order to protect the brickwork from rotting gradually as moisture sets in. This can be accomplished 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 a part of the building regulations that the garage conversion should adhere to, therefore is it necessary to make sure that your garage conversion incorporates appropriate damp proofing methods.

Hassocks is a big town and civil parish in the Mid Sussex district of West Sussex, England. Its name is believed to originate from the tufts of yard located in the bordering fields. Located approximately 7 miles (11 kilometres) north of Brighton, with a population of 7,667, the location now occupied by Hassocks was just a collection of cottages as well as a mentoring residence until the 19th century, when job began on the London to Brighton train. Hassocks until 2000 was just a postal district as well as before that the name of the railway station. The Parishes were called Clayton and also Keymer and it is believed that when the train came in 1841 the Parish Councils were provided the possibility of naming the terminal. Nevertheless they can not agree and eventually the supervisors of the London, Brighton & South Coast Railway gave up waiting and named the station Hassocks Gate themselves. Hassocks has a combination of shops. The village additionally gains from having a well-used area centre called Adastra Hall which is made use of for a wide variety of community and also private occasions. The former council structures housing the roadway upkeep division on London Road have been demolished and also have actually ended up being a variety of residences, whilst the land offered to the people of Hassocks (through East Sussex County Council) by a benefactor, previously used by a youngsters's charity, was built on in 2014/15 the charity having asserted possession.

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!
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.
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.
