Hydrostatic pressure affects every basement whether you realise it or not. It is basically the pressure that is exerted by a liquid at the point where two forces are balanced, in this instance the force of ground water pressing in on your basement walls and the engineered structure (your basement and the air within the basement) pushing back on that force, cancelling each other out. When you introduce water into the basement the force that is pushing back on the ground water is increased. At the same time the pressure from outside the basement is increased to maintain the balance.
Space comes at a premium so property owners need to utilise every square inch. In some circumstances, basement conversions are the best solution to gain more usable space. Perhaps an extension to the rear or side of your property is not possible. Or, maybe your home has already been extended but you require extra room to add a new feature such as a gym, cinema, or workshop. A basement conversion could increase the value of your home by as much as 30%. Medway-BS can handle the entire project for you.
