Damp Proofing in Lochwinnoch

Extensions including garage conversions will usually require supplementary damp proofing to be added as part of conversion, as the pre-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 added to 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 performed by by using 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 if the floor will be a solid or a floating floor. In some garages, the walls have been damp proofed, but this might 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 carried out by either making use of 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 should comply with, and so is it important to make sure that your garage conversion makes use of appropriate damp proofing methods.

Lochwinnoch

Lochwinnoch is a village in the council area and also historical region of Renfrewshire in the west central Lowlands of Scotland. Lying on the banks of Castle Semple Loch and also the River Calder, Lochwinnoch is mainly a household dorm room village offering close-by urban centres such as Glasgow and Paisley. Its population in 2001 was 2628. The Community additionally lends its name to a civil parish of some 50 sq mi (130 km2) of the bordering countryside, including the neighboring town of Howwood. The church borders seven others: Beith, Kilbarchan, Kilbirnie, Kilmacolm, Largs, Neilston as well as Paisley. Today, Lochwinnoch chiefly serves as a household village, in addition to a satellite to the major city of Glasgow. In 1972, a number of buildings in the town were brought within a recently defined Lochwinnoch Conservation Area as a location of unique architectural significance for preparation as well as setting objectives provided by the neighborhood authority. Lochwinnoch Primary School, the only institution in the town, celebrated its centenary in 2005. In 2003 it was the centre of a significant unusual big cat sighting scare. Children were maintained inside throughout break times, and a police helicopter was brought in to search for the animal.

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 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 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.
