What is structural waterproofing?

This simply refers to any process that helps to prevent water ingress. Building materials and water don’t mix well, and if you have a rising or penetrating damp problem in your home, you run the risk of having a cold and unwelcoming home. Damp properties are difficult to heat, which means this condition could also cause your energy bills to skyrocket. Damp also provides the ideal conditions for black mould to thrive, which can be a considerable health hazard.

We offer a range of methods to protect your property in Betchworth. It all starts with a damp proofing survey to understand the cause of your damp problem or the risk factors that you’re facing. Next, we can implement a range of methods to help keep your home clear of damp, including new damp proof courses and basement tanking for below ground rooms. All work is carried out to the highest standard, with special consideration given to ensure minimal disruption to you and your neighbours.

What are the benefits of structural waterproofing?

This is not just a task you can tick off your list and assume that it is taken care of forever. Structural waterproofing is typically completed during construction, but these methods are known to fail. You may also have outdated and ineffective waterproofing methods that could benefit from being updated. Damp proofing can help to keep your home warm and comfortable all year round.

If you are expanding your home, it’s also vital to consider how to protect the new or converted structure. We help Betchworth homeowners with basement conversions to help them to realise the true potential of their home. We can also assist with structural waterproofing measures for home extensions, ensuring that your investment is safe.

The structural waterproofing process explained

These processes are commonly completed during construction, but thankfully we can also retrofit these methods without having to dig into your foundations. This is excellent news for your and for your neighbours, as it means that work can be carried out with minimal disruption. There are multiple methods we can recommend based on the location of the damp.

The first would be a new damp proof course, which is a chemical injection into your brickwork which creates an impermeable barrier to moisture. We could also recommend basement tanking for below ground rooms. This helps to protect spaces that are subject to hydrostatic pressure where damp proof courses are ineffective. Various methods for basement tanking are available depending on the space. We can advise you on the right choice for your home.
