Damp Proofing in Insch

Extensions such as garage conversions will usually require extra damp proofing to be added through the conversion, as the pre-existing garage normally has a single skin design for walls and floors, which was not manufactured to conform to building regulations for habitable rooms. This damp proofing should 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 using a damp proof membrane. This membrane is available in either solid or liquid form. The damp proof membrane will be put down either on top of the existing concrete floor, below the new floor, or as part of both, depending on if the floor will be a solid or a floating floor. In some garages, the walls have already been damp proofed, but this might need to be improved as part of the conversion in order to meet current building regulations. The walls will need to be damp proofed to be able to protect the brickwork from rotting gradually as moisture sets in. This can be performed by either employing damp proof membranes, waterproof rendering, or cavity insulation, depending on the type of walls that are already present in the garage. Damp proofing is a 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.
