Basement Waterproofing Specialist in Hambledon
Dreaming of a basement conversion? Before you get started with the work, it is essential to check that your below ground space is fully protected against moisture ingress. As your local experts in basement waterproofing, Tapco Homedry can help you to address this issue head on. With our help, you can get started with your basement conversion with complete confidence.
Basement waterproofing is commonly completed during construction, but it’s also common for basements to be left unfinished or for these measures to fail over time. Don’t make assumptions about your protection, as this could lead to expensive consequences if you have to rip out your conversion work and start again. Get in touch with our Hambledon team to learn more.

Basement waterproofing methods
Every home is different, so we don’t take a one-size-fits-all approach to waterproofing. We’ll start with a damp survey to determine what measures you already have in place and if they are working. Next, we’ll offer our recommendations to protect the space.
There are two main methods that we use for basement waterproofing. We can help you to choose the right one for your home. And thankfully, both can be retrofitted to homes without digging into your foundations, which means minimal disruption to you and your neighbours.
The first method is to coat the walls and floor with a waterproofing slurry that sets to form an impermeable moisture barrier that can then be tiled and rendered over. Alternatively, we can use sheets of membrane to coats and walls and floor. This creates a structure within a structure and will allow us to direct the moisture into channels and pump it out of your home.
These methods allow us to address the unique challenges related to hydrostatic pressure, which affects all below-ground spaces.
