The large-scale basement project consists of a 4-storey deep basement located close to the River Thames in Central London.  The proposed subterranean space would offer multiple usage.

This complex project required a waterproofing design which is, able to cope with intermittent/regular hydrostatic pressures created not just by groundwater, but also geographical tidal impacts from the river Thames and potential stress challenges caused by the surrounding infrastructure such as heavily trafficked railway lines in the development’s vicinity.

The scope of this project was to provide an effective, maintainable, and robust waterproofing solution to a below ground extension and underground garage to a residential home in Suffolk.

Delta Registered Installers, Oaks Damp Proofing Co Ltd along with Delta’s Technical Sales Consultant Paul Callaghan, were appointed as Waterproofing Specialists to undertake the waterproofing design and installation of the waterproofing solution.

The scope of the project was to provide a waterproofing solution to a luxurious lake side home.  The new build property will sit within close vicinity of a 400 ft lake.

The property itself being new build, was constructed from a Type B, waterproof reinforced concrete to provide a first form of waterproofing protection, with both Type C, and Type A, waterproofing solutions being incorporated to the structure to provide two forms of protection.  

The scope of this project was to specify and install a remediation basement drainage system to a property in London where the existing basement drainage pump system had failed causing extensive flood damage to the basement studio.

Basement drainage ‘pumped systems’ should be engineered to cope with worst case scenario of water ingress.  It should always be assumed that groundwater is expected to rise against any structure at some point during its service life.
