Extensions such as garage conversions will typically require additional damp proofing to be added through the conversion, as the pre-existing garage typically has a single skin design for walls and floors, which was not built to comply with building regulations for habitable rooms. This damp proofing will have to be added to walls and floors. Moreover, 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 employing 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 if the floor will be a solid or a floating floor. In a few garages, the walls will have already been damp proofed, but this may need to be improved as part of the conversion in order to meet current building regulations. The walls should be damp proofed in order to protect the brickwork from rotting slowly as moisture sets in. This is accomplished by either utilising 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 adhere to, and so is it vital to make sure that your garage conversion makes use of appropriate damp proofing methods.
The average cost of Damp proofing is £1500. Costs vary based upon the materials and the organisation selected. The upper price range can be as high as £1725. The material costs are in general about £375

Kirriemuir, in some cases called Kirrie, is a burgh in Angus, Scotland. Its history gets to back to earliest recorded times, when it is believed to have been a major clerical centre. Later on it was understood witchcraft, and some older houses still include a "witches stane" to ward off bad. In the 19th century, it was an important centre of the hemp profession. The playwright J. M. Barrie was born and also buried here, and also a statuary of Peter Pan stands in the town square. Though its value as a market town has actually reduced, its former hemp manufacturing facilities (currently manufacturing synthetics) resemble its importance in the 19th century as the centre of a home-based weaving market. Historical features near Kirriemuir consist of a carved Pictish stone called the Eassie Stone, discovered in the bed of a shed near the village of Eassie. Kirriemuir asserts the narrowest public footpath in Western Europe; Cat's Close, situated between Grant's Pend and Kirkwynd. It is a plain 40 centimetres (15.75 inches) large. The family estate of Sir Hugh Munro, who created Munro's Tables of Scottish hills over 3,000 ft in elevation (which are now called "munros"), is also situated near the community, as is Kinnordy House, the seat of the Lyells.

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.
