Damp Proofing in Renfrew

Extensions including garage conversions will typically require additional damp proofing to be installed during the conversion, as the pre-existing garage typically has a single skin design for walls and floors, which was not manufactured to comply with building regulations for habitable rooms. This damp proofing will have to 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 by using 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, 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 may have to be updated as part of the conversion to be able to adhere to current building regulations. The walls will need to be damp proofed to be able to safeguard the brickwork from rotting slowly as moisture sets in. This is performed by either employing damp proof membranes, waterproof rendering, or cavity insulation, depending on the type of walls already present in the garage. Damp proofing is an important part of the building regulations that the garage conversion will need to comply with, therefore is it necessary to ensure that your garage conversion makes use of suitable damp proofing methods.
