Cellars conversion are commonplace in London and the example below is typical of what can be achieved by using the right system for the circumstances. A lot of cellars and basements now sit just above the water table due to changing weather patterns and housing developments altering underground stream flows.

We are increasingly being asked to help repair an existing cellar that has flooded for the first time in years and in almost all cases the failed cellar was treated with an old fashioned waterproofing tanking render and a concrete floor.

The accepted wisdom now is that the best way to manage the problem of water ingress through the floor and/or walls is to use a membrane and pump system. This system is derived from Scandinavia where cellar and basement useage is very common and has proved to be the best way of maintaining a dry and damp free living environment.
