Damp Proofing in Yarmouth

Extensions including garage conversions will usually require supplementary damp proofing to be added during the conversion, as the pre-existing garage normally has a single skin design for walls and floors, which was not designed to conform to building regulations for habitable rooms. This damp proofing will need to be put into walls and floors. Furthermore, the roofing of the garage conversion will need water proofing. The damp proofing of the floor of the garage conversion will usually be achieved by employing a damp proof membrane. This membrane will come in either solid or liquid form. The damp proof membrane will be placed 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 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 performed by either utilising 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 adhere to, therefore is it vital to ensure that your garage conversion employs appropriate damp proofing methods.
