Keep Your Basement Dry, Safe, and Usable

Damp and water ingress in basements can cause a range of problems including mould growth, structural damage, and unpleasant odours. At Down Property Care Ltd, we specialise in waterproofing and tanking solutions that protect your property from moisture and water damage.

What is Basement Tanking?

Tanking is the process of applying a waterproof barrier to the walls and floors of basements or below-ground areas to prevent water penetration. This can be done using a range of materials including cementitious coatings, membranes, or specialist waterproofing paints.

Common Causes of Basement Dampness

  • Groundwater seepage through walls or floors
  • Poor drainage around the building
  • Cracks or faults in the structure
  • High humidity and condensation
