Structural Waterproofing in Witley

Structural waterproofing is an essential step for homeowners. If you’re concerned about your existing structural waterproofing measures, or if you are planning an extension/conversion and want to ensure your investment is protected, we can help. Tapco Homedry delivers cost-effective and reliable structural waterproofing solutions for Witley homeowners just like you.

Structural waterproofing explained

This is a broad term that could apply to a wide range of processes that are commonly completed during construction, but can be retrofitted to most homes. The purpose of structural waterproofing is to protect a structure from water ingress using a range of methods. It could include systems like the tiles on the roof or the gutters that help to direct rainwater towards drains.

Protecting your home from water ingress is essential as it allows you to enjoy a warm and comfortable space. Without these essential measures, your home would be at risk of cosmetic and structural damage. Residents would also be placed at risk of being exposed to environmental hazards such as toxic mould, which can be deadly.

If you are thinking about extending your property and want to know that your structural waterproofing will be extended into the new space, we can help. We also support homeowners who would like to convert basement and cellar spaces into functional living spaces by offering structural waterproofing that is bespoke to below ground rooms.

Who should consider structural waterproofing?

Not sure if you need structural waterproofing in your home? There are a few situations where you might need to consider the implications of neglecting this essential home maintenance task. Common reasons for exploring structural waterproofing include:

  • If you suspect you have a damp problem in your home, this could indicate that your damp proof course has failed.
  • If you are extending your property, you need to ensure your plans include measures for structural waterproofing.
  • If you’re converting your basement or cellar, it’s essential to check if you have the right level of structural waterproofing in place.

Benefits of structural waterproofing

This process is less of a suggestion and more of an essential home maintenance task. Without structural waterproofing in place, you could quickly see considerable damage to your home which will be very expensive to put right. Dampness can go beyond cosmetic damage and could lead to structural damage.

As well as protecting your property, you can also benefit from reduced energy bills, since a dry home is much easier to heat. Damp properties can lead to spiralling energy costs as your central heating will have to work much harder to deliver sufficient heat.

And finally, these measures can improve the air quality in your home and prevent the risk of developing issues like mildew and toxic mould.
