Basement Conversions in Thorpeness

Thorpeness is a village in Suffolk, in the East Suffolk council area, within the IP16 postcode district. It’s around 29 miles north-east of our base in Thorpe-le-Soken. We also cover nearby Aldeburgh, Aldringham cum Thorpe, Kelsale cum Carlton, Leiston and Theberton.

Guaranteed and insured

Our basement work carries a 10-year guarantee, insurance-backed through GPI – something mortgage lenders often ask for. We use systems from Safeguard Europe and the Wykamol Group.

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.

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.
