Basement Waterproofing Ely. Damp Proofing & Cellar Tanking for Local Homes
Specialist support for specifiers, contractors, and corporate teams.
Ely Damp Proofing
If your basement or cellar in Ely is suffering from damp, mould, or water ingress, you’re not alone. Ely’s low-lying position near the Fens, combined with its older housing stock and clay-rich soil, means basement damp is a common issue. Whether you’re near St Mary’s Street or tucked in around Ely Cathedral, untreated moisture in basements can cause serious problems.

At APP Protect, we’ve been providing basement waterproofing in Ely and across Cambridgeshire for more than 50 years. We design and install waterproofing systems that stop damp at the source — and we back every job with guarantees and full compliance with BS 8102:2022.
