Damp Proofing Specialists In Manchester
Homes that have damp issues can cause serious health issues as well as damage to the structure, which can be detrimental to homeowners. This means that detecting the signs that your house needs protecting from damp is important.
A watertight structure prevents dampness from occurring by preventing water from entering and evaporating. The difference in protection methods means that damp-proofed homes are not as waterproof as waterproofed homes.
Why Damp Proof Your Home in Manchester?
Water vapour is kept out of foundation walls by damp proofing. Surfaces are coated using an asphalt-based coating to prevent moisture from harming them, as a result, avoiding rising damp.
You should keep in mind when deciding whether to damp-proof your property that it is intended for use on concrete surfaces to prevent moisture from seeping through the concrete, not for use on the entire house.

Basement & Cellar Conversions Manchester
If you’re struggling for space in your property in Manchester but don’t want to move, then a basement conversion could be the right move for you.
Basement and cellar conversions are great ways to add space and value to your home without moving property or taking up precious garden space. Whereas a loft conversion may require more construction and have more restrictions, a basement conversion is a cost-effective, simpler way to add space and value to your home.
All you need is a cellar underneath your property. Damp and mould is a common issue with basements and can affect the structure and aesthetic of a cellar. All work carried out on your basement will begin with initial structural waterproofing.
Watertight Homes provide Basement Conversions and Cellar Conversions in Manchester and will inspect the cellar, give you a quote and begin working on your basement conversion.
