Limavady, Londonderry
Basement Tanking in Limavady
Cementitious tanking and cavity drain systems for basements, cellars and below-ground rooms.
We carry out basement tanking across Limavady and the surrounding Londonderry area throughout the year.
The prevailing picture in Londonderry is Victorian terraces, harled cottages and exposed north-coast housing. That means driving rain and salt on north-coast properties comes up more here than almost anywhere else.
Limavady sits in a part of the UK that gets wet with severe Atlantic exposure on the north coast — worth factoring into any render decision. The north coast around portstewart takes direct atlantic weather, and dash finishes substantially outperform smooth render there.
When basement tanking is the right call. Choose tanking for cellar and basement conversions, persistently wet below-ground rooms, and any space you intend to make habitable.

FAQs
Basement Tanking in Limavady
How much does rendering cost?
It is priced by the square metre and depends on the system, the condition of the walls and access. Our guide-price tool gives an indicative range in about a minute, and the survey turns that into a fixed written quote.
Do you offer a guarantee?
Yes. Every job carries our workmanship guarantee, and where a full manufacturer-specified system is installed you also get the system warranty on top.
What time of year is best for rendering?
Spring through autumn is ideal. Render should not be applied in frost or in very hot direct sun, so winter work needs protection and settled conditions.
Can you render over existing render?
Sometimes, if the existing coat is completely sound and well-bonded. We hammer-test it first. Anything hollow has to come off, because covering failure just hides it.
Are you insured?
Yes — full public liability cover, and we can send the certificate before we start. We are happy to provide RAMS for commercial and contractor work.
