Basement Tanking & Waterproofing Specialists in Medway
Basements and cellars are common in many properties across the Medway towns, but without proper protection they often suffer from damp and moisture problems. Our professional basement tanking and waterproofing services across Medway help prevent water penetration and allow underground spaces to be safely used.

Many homeowners are now choosing to make better use of the space already available within their property. Rather than extending outward, basements are increasingly being converted into functional areas such as home offices, additional bedrooms, hobby rooms, or practical storage. For businesses in Medway, cellar conversions can also provide extra workspace without the expense and disruption of relocating.

Because basements sit below ground level, they are naturally more vulnerable to water ingress. Tanking and waterproofing systems create a protective barrier that prevents moisture from entering through the surrounding walls and floors. By sealing the structure with specialist materials or installing waterproof membrane systems, it becomes possible to keep the space dry and usable.

For many properties across the Medway towns, basement waterproofing is one of the most cost-effective ways to gain additional usable space within the existing building.

Experienced Basement Waterproofing Contractors in Medway
Anticc Roofing & Building has carried out basement tanking and waterproofing projects throughout Medway for more than 20 years. Based in Chatham, our family-run company has extensive experience dealing with damp basements, cellar waterproofing, and structural moisture protection.

Every property is different, so we take the time to assess the condition of the basement and discuss how the space is intended to be used. This allows us to recommend the most suitable waterproofing system for long-term protection.

If you are considering basement waterproofing or experiencing damp issues, call 01634 779593 to discuss your project. Once we understand your requirements, we can arrange a convenient visit to inspect the property, take measurements, and provide a clear, no-obligation quote.

If we miss your call, please leave a message or use the enquiry form on this page and we will get back to you as soon as possible.
Basement Waterproofing Methods for Medway Properties
Effective basement waterproofing relies on creating a barrier that prevents groundwater from entering the structure. Depending on the property and the accessibility of the foundations, this protection may be installed externally or internally.

External Basement Tanking

External tanking involves applying a waterproof membrane or coating to the outside walls and foundations of the basement. This prevents water from reaching the structure at all, providing very effective protection. However, it often requires excavation around the property and is typically carried out during construction or major renovation work.

Internal Basement Tanking

Internal tanking systems are more commonly used in existing Medway properties where external excavation is not practical. Waterproof coatings, membranes, or cavity drainage systems are installed on the interior walls and floors to control moisture and channel water safely away from the structure.

Materials Used for Basement Tanking
Different waterproofing systems may be recommended depending on the construction of the basement and the level of moisture present.

Cementitious Waterproof Coatings

These cement-based slurry coatings are applied directly to concrete or masonry surfaces to create a durable waterproof barrier.

Liquid Waterproof Membranes

Liquid membranes are applied in a wet state and cure to form a flexible waterproof layer that protects surfaces from moisture penetration.

Sheet Membrane Systems

Pre-formed waterproof sheets can be installed against walls and floors to prevent groundwater from passing through the structure.
Key Considerations for Long-Term Waterproofing

Successful basement tanking involves more than simply sealing the walls. Several factors contribute to ensuring the system performs effectively.

Drainage

Managing water around the foundations is important. Proper drainage systems can divert groundwater away from the building and reduce pressure on basement walls.

Ventilation

Adequate ventilation helps control humidity levels inside the basement and reduces the risk of condensation and mould developing.

Maintenance

Periodic inspections help ensure the waterproofing system remains effective and continues protecting the structure over time.

"We contacted Anticc about water that was coming down our chimney and onto the floor. John came out promptly to assess the issue, taking the time to answer our questions and explain what needed doing and why. The team that carried out the work were friendly, polite, and turned up when they said they would. Rubbish and scaffolding were removed the same day the work was finished. We’re happy with the work that was carried out, and would definitely use Anticc again".
