Damp Proofing in Westcliff-on-sea

Extensions such as garage conversions will usually require supplementary damp proofing to be added through the conversion, as the 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 need to be put into walls and floors. Moreover, the roofing of the garage conversion will need water proofing. The damp proofing for 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 existing concrete floor, underneath the new floor, or as part of both, depending on whether the floor will be a solid or a floating floor. In a few garages, the walls will have already been damp proofed, but this might need to be improved as part of the conversion to be able to comply with current building regulations. The walls should be damp proofed to be able to protect the brickwork from rotting gradually as moisture sets in. This is accomplished by either using 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, and so is it necessary to ensure that your garage conversion makes use of appropriate damp proofing methods.

Westcliff-on-sea

Westcliff-on-Sea is a suburb of Southend-on-Sea, a seaside resort as well as unitary authority in Essex in south-east England. It is on the north coast of the lower Thames Estuary, about 34 miles (55 kilometres) eastern of London. The primary buying area in Westcliff-on-Sea is Hamlet Court Road, where the chain store Havens, developed in 1901, stayed the anchor store until its closure in 2017. Hamlet Court Road took its name from a manor house called the Hamlet Court, which stood on land now inhabited by Pavarotti's dining establishment and adjoining stores, encountering towards the sea with sweeping gardens down to the railway. The road later turned into a solid independent retail area as well as quickly became famous outside the location as the Bond Street of Essex. There were several haberdashers and professional stores, as well as it was not too uncommon to see licensed operators waiting on their employers to arise from the stores.

FAQs

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.

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.

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.

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!
