A note from Richard

"So why basements, you ask?

Loft conversions have been done, planning for ground level extensions is getting harder and compromises on your outside space....the opportunity to add value and living space to your home is beneath it!

I started out as a property developer, buying existing houses in the Sheffield and South Yorkshire area; doing them up, converting the basements to gain an extra room, and either selling them on or renting them out...

I have been converting cellars and tanking damp basements for over twenty years. During this time I have gained first-hand experience of waterproofing technologies as they have developed and improved. I set up Yorkshire Basement Systems in 2002 to apply my knowledge and experience in assisting home owners and landlords with expanding their liveable spaces.

I am motivated by my love for the work that I do, and Yorkshire Basement Systems pride ourselves in working with customers to deliver the highest standard of product."
