Basement Conversions in Felixstowe

Felixstowe is a town in Suffolk, in the East Suffolk council area, within the IP11 postcode district. It’s around 11 miles north-east of our base in Thorpe-le-Soken. We also cover nearby Trimley St. Martin and Trimley St. Mary.

Planning and finishing the room

We’ll talk through how you want to use the space and draw up a specification to suit – including any plumbing, electrics and ventilation. Dry lining and insulation then make the room warm and ready for decorating.

Guaranteed and insured

We work closely with Safeguard Europe and the Wykamol Group, and our basement waterproofing is backed by a 10-year guarantee, insurance-backed through Guarantee Protection Insurance Ltd (GPI).

Waterproofing your basement

Because a basement sits below ground level – and sometimes below the water table – its walls and floor are under constant pressure from water and moisture. Before anything else we waterproof the space, using tanking or a cavity drain membrane system depending on the property.
