Rising damp is the action of water moving vertically through porous building material, which is in contact with the ground.

Are you lacking in space within your home? Then before you head to your nearest estate agency to discuss buying a bigger property, why not consider waterproofing your basement? If your basement is serving little purpose, it could provide the ideal solution to your space needs. Basement waterproofing is becoming increasing popular as homeowners look to increase the space within their homes without the expense or inconvenience of moving. Many people in Surrey and elsewhere in south east England hire Preservation Treatments to transform their dull, dark and dank basement into a functional and beautiful room.

Waterproofing is the process of making an object or structure waterproof or water-resistant, so that it remains relatively unaffected by water, or resisting the ingress of water under specified conditions. In terms of buildings, waterproofing of the structure, whether this is an existing structure which is being refurbished, or a new-build structure, is designed to create a dry environment, using the guidance of BS8102:2009. Our CSSW trained Surveyors (Certified Surveyor in Structural Waterproofing) will assist in designing an effective structural waterproofing system to the guidelines contained within BS8102:2009, (the code of practice for the protection of below ground structures against water from the ground).
