Cellar conversion ?

Recommended Posts

hi,

i'm wanting to make my cellar into a useable work room and my mum said something about tanking ? basically it's quite dry and consists of 2 little adjoining rooms with a stone floor. what needs doing to make it convenient to work in and to make it warm, and will it be hugely expensive ?

advice appreciated......

thanks...

It would definately need tanking and insulation.

 

Building control may well have concerns about adequate means of escape in a fire depending on the use of the room and layout of the house.

I used Basement Dreams http://www.basementdreams.co.uk/ two years ago and it is still very fine and dry.

 

I got two quotes, the other one could not solve the problem of fire escape to comply with building regulation. Basement Dreams solved that by adding a door opposite my current cellar door.

Complete finger in the air, but you asked if it was expensive. If you google it, you'll see that you'll probably be needing to budget anything from 8k to 20k. So yes, it's fairly expensive, but cheaper than buying a bigger house.
