Damp Proofing in Beaconsfield

Extensions including garage conversions will usually require additional damp proofing to be installed as part of conversion, as the 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 will have to be added to 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 usually be performed by utilising a damp proof membrane. This membrane is available in either solid or liquid form. The damp proof membrane will be put 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 a few garages, the walls have been damp proofed, but this may 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 gradually as moisture sets in. This can be done by either using damp proof membranes, waterproof rendering, or cavity insulation, depending on the type of walls that are already in the garage. Damp proofing is an important part of the building regulations that the garage conversion will need to adhere to, and so is it important to make sure that your garage conversion employs appropriate damp proofing methods.

Beaconsfield

Beaconsfield is a market town and civil parish inside the South Buckingham district of Buckinghamshire, centred 23.6 miles (38 km) north west of London and 17 miles (27 kilometres) south east of the county's administrative town, Aylesbury. 4 towns are within 5 miles of Beaconsfield: Slough, Amersham, Gerrards Cross and High Wycombe. It has an area of 7.59 square miles. According to the 2011 Census, the town has a permanent population of approximately 12,000 individuals. The parish church at the crossroads of Old Beaconsfield is devoted to St. Mary, and it was rebuilt of flint and bath stone by the Victorians in 1869. The United Reformed Church in Beaconsfield can trace its roots of non-conformist worship in the town back to 1704. Old Beaconsfield has a number of old coaching inns set along a wide street of red brick homes and small shops. It was the first coach stopping place on the road in between London and Oxford. An annual fair is traditionally held on 10th May. Its charter, granted in 1269, originally established a yearly market for trading of goods and livestock, but it has now transformed into a funfair, held for one day only. In recent times, some residents have opposed the fair as a hindrance to the Old Town, and have made calls for the 735 year-old fair to be stopped. The town is adjacent to the Chiltern Hills Area of Outstanding Natural Beauty and boasts a wide area of Georgian, neo-Georgian and Tudor revival high street architecture, generally known as the Old Town. It's famed for the very first model village in the world and, in education, a direction and technical production institute, the National Film and Television School. For all of your property upgrades, make sure that you employ vetted specialists in Beaconsfield to make sure you get the best quality service.

FAQs

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!

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.
