What is structural waterproofing?
Structural waterproofing is a broad term that applies to many building processes that will help to protect a structure against excess moisture. Dampness in your home can lead to widespread health problems for residents, in addition to making the space more difficult to keep warm and comfortable.
Dampness is also a leading cause of structural issues, and in the most extreme cases could lead to secondary issues such as dry rot and broken cavity wall ties. To help protect your property and prevent damage, we recommend reviewing your structural waterproofing measures if you suspect something has failed.
We can advise you on the most cost-effective and reliable methods to help put things right. Thankfully, all structural waterproofing methods can be retrofitted to homes without digging into your foundations.

What are the benefits of structural waterproofing?
This isn’t so much a recommendation as a requirement. Structural waterproofing is essential for protecting your home against the threats associated with excessive moisture. Without effective structural waterproofing in place, you are leaving your property open to extensive risk of damage.
Structural waterproofing measures are usually implemented during construction, but these methods are known to fail over time. It’s also possible that outdated methods were used and a more effective method is available today. Another common issue is poor installation which leads to waterproofing to break down prematurely. If you are extending or converting any part of your property, you may need to check that your waterproofing measures are sufficient.
Whatever your reason for seeking out structural waterproofing, we’re here to help. These measures will protect your home and your investment while also allowing you to unlock the full potential of your property. For expert advice and support, get in touch with our team.

How does the structural waterproofing process work?
There are various methods available for different spaces, and each one will meet the challenges associated with different types of damp. A damp proof course, or DPC, is one of the best known methods for protecting against rising damp. This chemical injection into your brick work will stop moisture rising through your foundation.
For below ground spaces, a DPC would not be effective. In this case, we would recommend basement tanking to protect your home. We don’t recommend taking the DIY approach when it comes to waterproofing as the stakes are too high. Always trust this process to an expert so that you can have complete confidence in the results.
