Basement damp proofing creates dry, usable space in below-ground areas affected by moisture ingress. Our comprehensive solutions address the unique challenges of basement environments, from rising groundwater to condensation issues.
Basements are particularly vulnerable to water ingress due to their position near or below the water table. Hydrostatic pressure can force moisture through basement walls, creating damp environments unsuitable for habitable space.
Our professional expertise in the waterproofing industry enables us to identify the specific needs of your property and recommend appropriate solutions that protect your property’s structural integrity.
At Renlon, we’re constantly developing better solutions for our clients and the properties that we work on. Our innovation has led to the creation of proprietary products that offer significant advantages over traditional methods.
RenStrength is our revolutionary waterproofing system that eliminates the need to remove existing renders. This breakthrough technology applies directly over failed waterproofing systems, significantly reducing project timelines and disruption.
We are also excited to introduce RenTherme…
We offer multiple approaches to tackle damp basements, including basement tanking, external waterproofing, and cavity drain membrane systems. Each system we offer creates an effective solution against water pressure and surface water.
Our solutions often incorporate ventilation improvements and drainage systems that direct water to a suitable drainage point, significantly reducing humidity levels in your basement.

Here are some common questions about basement damp proofing. If you need more information, please contact us.
Contact UsDamp proofing is designed to resist low levels of moisture and humidity, while waterproofing provides comprehensive protection against direct water pressure.
For many basements, especially those below the water table, full basement waterproofing systems are recommended rather than simpler damp proof solutions.
The first step is a thorough assessment of your basement's specific conditions, including water table levels, the passage of water through existing structures, and your intended use of the space.
We examine existing damp walls, flooring, and signs of leaks before recommending a solution that aligns with both building regulations and your requirements.
Yes, we've successfully damp proofed many older basements. While new build properties can incorporate damp proofing from the design stage, older buildings often require retrofit solutions.
Our Type C cavity drain systems are particularly effective for older properties as they manage water without putting pressure on existing basement walls that may have cement or plaster coatings.
