Battersea in South West London is quite rightly, no longer a poor relation in London.  It is a wonderful place to take a leisurely walk through its various gardens, or along the lake or riverside and admire the Peace Pagoda, as well as soaking up the cultural events and venues.

Property owners are often looking to increase living space but don’t want the expense of moving or extending.  An ideal solution is often the conversion of an unused basement or cellar which can be used to provide precious living accommodation.  If you are considering converting a disused basement or cellar in Battersea or any borough of London, call us first. Tapco HomeDry have been established since 1971 and can undertake either the total project or just the specialist damp proofing in preparation for your own contractor to complete the works.

Many Battersea basements and cellars have damp making the rooms uninhabitable.  In the worse cases the damp, insufficient temperature and lack of ventilation will provided ideal conditions for the dreaded dry rot fungus (Serpula lacrymans) to thrive and cause even more devastation.

Whether you need a complete basement damp proofed or an existing basement damp proofing system repaired, get in touch with us first to request a survey.  Our technicians are highly trained and skilled to ensure a high quality end result that will endure well into the future.

Damp proofing your Basement to create a favourite room

Because of the large increase in London property prices over the years, owners of commercial and domestic and properties in areas such as Battersea, find that converting their basement to create their ideal space is both cost effective and  profitable in the long term.

The two methods of damp proofing we use for cellars and basements are Cavity Drain Membrane System and Structural Waterproofing –  both of which are covered by our long term guarantee.  We are members of the Basement Damp Proofing Association (BDA), Property Care Association (PCA) and Trust Mark (Government Endorsed Standards).  For your peace of mind, your Guarantee can be protected by the Guarantee Protection Insurance.
