Damp Proofing in Rye

Extensions including garage conversions will usually require additional damp proofing to be added during the conversion, as the pre-existing garage routinely has a single skin design for walls and floors, which was not built to conform to building regulations for habitable rooms. This damp proofing will need to be put into walls and floors. In addition, the roofing of the garage conversion will need water proofing. The damp proofing of the floor of the garage conversion will most likely be performed 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 whether the floor will be a solid or a floating floor. In some garages, the walls have been damp proofed, but this may have to be improved as part of the conversion in order to meet current building regulations. The walls should be damp proofed to be able to safeguard the brickwork from rotting slowly as moisture sets in. This can be carried out by either applying damp proof membranes, waterproof rendering, or cavity insulation, depending on the type of walls already present in the garage. Damp proofing is an integral part of the building regulations that the garage conversion will need to comply with, therefore is it necessary to make sure that your garage conversion employs appropriate damp proofing methods.

Rye

Rye is a small town and also civil parish in the Rother area, in East Sussex, England, two miles from the sea at the confluence of 3 rivers: the Rother, the Tillingham as well as the Brede. In medieval times, as a crucial participant of the Cinque Ports confederation, it was at the head of an embayment of the English Channel, and also almost entirely surrounded by the sea. At the 2011 census, Rye had a population of 4,773. Its historic association with the sea has actually consisted of giving ships for the solution of the Crown in time of war, and also being involved in smuggling. The infamous Hawkhurst Gang used its ancient inns The Mermaid Inn and also The Olde Bell Inn, which are stated to be attached per other by a secret path. Those historical roots and its beauty make it a visitor location, with hotels, guest houses, B&B s, tea rooms, as well as dining establishments. It has a little fishing fleet, and Rye Harbour has centers for yachts and other vessels.

FAQs

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.

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 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.

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!
