Basement Tanking in Evesham
Cementitious tanking and cavity drain systems for basements, cellars and below-ground rooms.
If you are weighing up basement tanking in Evesham, the starting point is what your walls are actually built from.
Worcestershire is characterised by timber framing, sandstone cottages, Victorian brick and modern estates, with lime work on timber-frame and render repair on postwar estates the recurring theme on the properties we survey.
Local conditions bring moderate rainfall with wetter conditions on the Malverns, and that has a direct bearing on which systems are worth specifying. The malvern ridge is noticeably wetter and more exposed than the severn vale, and specifications should reflect which side of the county a property sits on.
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 Evesham
How long before I can paint new render?
Through-coloured systems need no painting at all. Sand and cement should cure for around 28 days before masonry paint goes anywhere near it.
Do you take a deposit?
For most domestic jobs we take a deposit to cover materials and scaffold, with the balance on completion. Terms are set out clearly in the written quote.
Can you match my existing render?
Usually, yes. We colour and texture match as closely as we can, though weathered render never matches a fresh batch exactly — we will be honest about how visible a patch will be.
Can any cellar be tanked?
Most can, but the right system depends on water pressure, structural condition and intended use. A survey establishes which approach is appropriate.
How long does basement tanking last?
A correctly designed and installed system carries a 20-year warranty. Type C systems need periodic pump servicing to maintain that.
