HG 1 Property Solutions are able to transform neglected, mouldy and damp basements into beautiful cosy living areas.

We offer two main solutions to waterproof a basement or cellar -

The first method of tanking is Soveriegn K11 Apllication which is applied to a suitably strong substrate. We will carry out the tanking with cement based renders, screed and waterproof coatings bonded to the walls and floor.

The second method involves lining the basement with waterproof membranes. A cavity is left between the original wall and the membrane, down which any water can pass into specially constructed drainage channels and then into a sump in the floor of the basement. The water by means of a pump is then taken away to an area where it cannot penetrate back in.

All of the materials and workmanship to be used during the course of the construction of your basement will be of the highest quality. All works will be subject to approval by the Local Authority Building Control Department. Electrical works will be carried to the standards set by the National Inspection Council for Electrical Installation Contractors (NICEIC) and any gas alteration works according to the requirements of the Confederation of Registered Gas Installers (CORGI).
