Basement waterproofing in Finchampstead

Your basement could be the answer to your space problems. Rather than moving to a new house, you could uncover untapped potential in your current home. We’ve helped homeowners turn basements into extra bedrooms, cinemas, gyms and home offices. But before we can get started with this exciting renovation, we need to make sure the space is protected against water ingress.

Your basement might seem dry enough, but once you start occupying the space, you’ll soon notice pooling water and excess moisture if the basement waterproofing measures aren’t up to scratch. To prevent this, we can help implement the correct basement waterproofing measures that don’t require us to dig into your foundations.

Get it right the first time with Tapco Homedry. Contact our team to book a home survey and quote. This will enable you to start planning the basement conversion of your dreams, confident that your hard work will not be damaged by moisture ingress. You can also be confident your basement space will be warm, dry and comfortable.

Basement waterproofing methods

Every home is unique, so we always start with a home survey to better understand what measures are already in place and how these might be improved. We will identify any risk factors that are unique to your property and offer suggestions for how to overcome these.

There are two main methods for waterproofing a basement space. These help to address the unique challenges faced by hydrostatic pressure, which is what happens when moisture in the earth around your home is subject to pressure from the weight, and forced into the area of lower pressure – namely, your basement.

To prevent this, we can either coat the walls and floor with a waterproofing mixture that sets to create an impermeable moisture barrier. We can also use waterproof membrane sheets to create a structure within a structure, which allows us to channel the moisture towards a pump where it can be removed from your home.

Who can benefit from basement waterproofing?

All homeowners can benefit from basement waterproofing, even if you have no plans to convert your basement space yet. By waterproofing this space, you can safely use the area for storage, allowing you to free up space in the rest of your home. 

A waterproof basement will protect your possessions and also protect your home from mould and mildew. Even if the mould is isolated to your basement, it can lead to bad smells throughout your home and could impact the air quality. Not to mention, this can quickly become a health hazard.

And finally, a waterproof basement can make your home more attractive to prospective buyers. If you’re planning to sell in the future, basement waterproofing could increase the potential value without even having to start the renovation work. Buyers may be attracted to the prospect of a basement space that is ready for a conversion.
