Insurance and warranties in below ground structures

When designing the most appropriate waterproofing system to any given situation, various design factors will need addressing such as (but not limited to), final use of the building, the grade of waterproofing requirement under the British Standard, structural considerations based on the form of construction and in some cases, satisfying the requirements of building warranty providers.

Waterproofing installation companies can offer homeowners IBG’s, meaning the installed waterproofing system is covered in terms of the original guarantee.

Just like the name implies, Delta’s technical team are responsible for the design and planning of structural waterproofing systems.  Delta’s trusted team can provide waterproofing designs capable of meeting Warranty Providers Standards and can be installed by a reputable contractor able to offer Insurance Back Guarantees.
