What is structural waterproofing?

Structural waterproofing refers to any measure used to safeguard a structure against moisture. These measures are commonly installed during the construction process, but they are known to break down or fail over time. Thankfully, we can implement new structural waterproofing measures from inside your home, so we don’t have to excavate into your foundations. This is great news for you and your neighbours as there is minimal interruption.

The most common method of protecting a property against water is a damp proof course, or DPC. This method involves drilling into the cavity wall and inserting a chemical that forms a barrier against moisture ingress, preventing water from seeping up into your home from the outside. For below ground rooms where this method isn’t effective, we can use a method known as basement tanking. This involves the use of membrane sheets to stop moisture getting into your home through your basement or cellar.

What are the benefits of structural waterproofing?

There are many widespread benefits to structural waterproofing. This is one of the minimum requirements for property maintenance, as it can have widespread implications for the condition of your home. Moisture can cause cosmetic and structural damage to your property and should therefore be avoided. If left untreated, even in unused parts of your home, you could face issues throughout your property, including wall and floor collapse.

Structural waterproofing is also essential to ensure your home is more comfortable. Damp will make a home difficult to heat, which could make your energy bills much higher. Excess moisture will also create the ideal conditions for mould and mildew to thrive, which can impact the air quality in your home. It can also be a health hazard, particular for those with breathing conditions. In short, structural waterproofing will help to ensure your home is habitable.
