Basement waterproofing in Charlwood

An unfinished basement doesn’t have to remain that way. We don’t have to dig into your foundations to implement basement waterproofing measures. Everything can be carried out from the inside, which means minimal disruption to you and your neighbours. By retrofitting basement waterproofing, you could transform the space into a functional living space.

Above ground rooms are commonly protected from moisture ingress using a damp proof course, but this would be ineffective for below ground rooms like basements and cellars. The risk of water ingress is much higher in below ground rooms, where the presence of hydrostatic pressure means that the earth around your home will always be forcing moisture through the floor and walls – unless you take steps to stop it.

We offer a wide range of services that will allow you to enjoy a warm and dry basement space. This could allow you to turn the space into a guest bedroom, a home office, a gym or even just enjoy more storage space. Whatever your hopes and dreams for the space, we can help.

Basement waterproofing methods

Every home is different and will face unique challenges. This is why we always start with a home damp proofing survey to better understand the risk factors and the existing measures in place. From this informed vantage point, we can better advise on the ideal methods to safeguard your property.

There are multiple ways to waterproof a basement space. One method involves painting the walls and floor with a waterproofing slurry that hardens to form an impermeable moisture barrier. We can then tile the flooring and render the walls in preparation for decorating. 

The second method uses waterproof membranes to create a structure within a structure. This method channels the moisture toward a pump which removes it from your home. Both methods are highly effective, and we can help you to choose the method that is best suited to your needs.

Who needs basement waterproofing?

Even if you aren’t planning to use your basement for anything more than storage, you could benefit from basement waterproofing. Protecting your basement from water ingress will offer benefits for your whole home.

First, it can help to keep your energy bills down by making it easier to keep your home comfortable. A damp home is more difficult to heat, and dampness can spread from your basement. 

Second, it can improve the air quality in your home by avoiding the risk of toxic mould and mildew build up in your basement. If you have damp in your basement, you’ll be able to smell this throughout your home.

And finally, it can also give you more flexibility in how you use your basement, paving the way for a basement conversion that allows you to maximise the usable space in your home.
