This process is usually carried out during construction, but it’s not uncommon for spaces to be left unfinished. If this is the case in your home, you need to think about basement waterproofing before you invest any money into decor and furnishings. Without this essential step, your basement conversion will quickly become damp and unusable.

Basement waterproofing in Bagshot

For the past 50 years, we have been helping the residents of Bagshot to overcome issues related to water ingress in their basements and cellars. If you’re ready to convert your basement into a fully functioning living space –  or if you’d just like to access more dry storage in your home – then basement waterproofing is an essential step.

You could significantly expand the space in your home and discover incredible untapped potential. Before you can start to think about using the space, you need to address the issue of basement waterproofing. Hydrostatic pressure from the earth around your home will force moisture in through the small holes in the bricks and mortar. To counter this, you need to install a waterproof layer to keep the moisture out.

Basement tanking is the process of waterproofing your basement or cellar so that moisture cannot get through the walls or floor. There are various measures available to help you keep your home warm and dry, which will all enable you to decorate your space with confidence.

Basement waterproofing methods

For rooms above ground, a damp proof course would be the recommended method. But this is not effective for below ground spaces. In this instance, we recommend basement tanking. Thankfully, these methods can be retrofitted in a space and you don’t need to dig into your foundations, as this would be messy and disruptive. 

There are two main methods of basement waterproofing. The first involves first sealing large cracks and then coating the walls and floor in a waterproofing slurry that will cure and harden to form a waterproof layer. You could also opt to use waterproof membranes to create a structure within a structure. We can then channel water under the membranes towards a pump where it will be removed from your home. Both methods will be highly effective for keeping your basement space dry and comfortable.

Even if you think the space seems dry, there may be intermittent pooling of water that can cause widespread issues. You should consider basement waterproofing in Bagshot before any conversion work takes place, as this will protect your investment. You should also think about waterproofing the space if you would like to use it for storage.
