Damp Proofing in Whitchurch

Extensions including garage conversions will often require supplementary damp proofing to be installed through the conversion, as the pre-existing garage normally 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 need to be put into walls and floors. Furthermore, the roof of the garage conversion will require water proofing. The damp proofing for the floor of the garage conversion will usually be achieved by utilising a damp proof membrane. This membrane can come in either solid or liquid form. The damp proof membrane will be put down either on top of the pre-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 might need to be updated as part of the conversion in order 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 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 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 incorporates suitable damp proofing methods.

Whitchurch

Whitchurch is a town in Hampshire, England. It gets on the River Test, 13 miles (21 km) south of Newbury, Berkshire, 12 miles (19 kilometres) north of Winchester, 8 miles (13 km) eastern of Andover as well as 12 miles (19 kilometres) west of Basingstoke. Much of the town is a Conservation Area. Due to the amount of wildlife in and near the River Test, its training course and financial institutions are designated as Site of Special Scientific Interest. The West of England Main Line connects the town's railway station to London, and two main roads bypass the community (the A34, a significant north-- south course, and also the A303, a significant east-- west course). The population is 8,962. The community is an expanding area with a combination of suburbs and also some light sector, as well as serves as a little traveler community to London (roughly 60 miles to the eastern) as well as to a minimal extent Basingstoke and also Andover. Newbury and Winchester, whilst close by, can not be reached by rail without substantial detour (considering that the closure of Whitchurch Community train station in 1960) therefore travelling to these areas is mostly by automobile. Lynch Hill Park, a small housing development, was used in a TV advert for Roysters crisps as a result of its "normal" American appearance. The centre of the town is a roundabout referred to as The Square.

FAQs

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 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.

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!
