Structural Waterproofing North Cornwall


Building a brand new house into a hillside with earth retaining walls can be scary.

On this project Drysafe installed a Type A Barrier protection waterproofing as defined in BS 8102:2009 for waterproofing of new and existing structures to the exterior of the pre-formed concrete walls. This system includes 2 coats of bitumen to be applied and then a drainage and protection membrane to be curtain hung which acts as a protection layer over Type A Primary Waterproofing Systems. There is a land drain installed at the base of the concrete slab and then back filled with clean stone.
