What is damp proofing?
Damp proofing is a broad term used to apply to any method that will keep moisture out of a structure. Moisture can get into your home from the earth around it. Without a cavity wall construction and a damp proof course, you would be living in a cold, damp and uncomfortable home. These methods are known to fail over time, so you can’t assume that you’ll never face issues with damp again.
When considering below ground rooms like basements and cellars, we need to take special consideration for the damp proofing measures. Hydrostatic pressure makes a damp proof course ineffective below ground, so we use a method called basement tanking to keep moisture out. There are also changes to the ventilation and use of your home that can help to limit the buildup of moisture from everyday activities.
