The ever increasing demand for more complicated and detailed subterranean structures has led to an increase in demand for unique and bespoke solutions, including combined protection or hybrid systems, designed to stop the ingress of water into these environments.
Lainton Services Limited supplies, installs and designs structural waterproofing solutions covered by Type A (Barrier Protection) and Type C (Drained Cavity Protection) in BS8102:2022.
Our qualified installers are fully trained and certified by the manufacturers of the systems we offer in sheet membranes, liquid membranes, cementitious systems and cavity drain systems.
Many of the problems associated with waterproofing a below-ground structure can be alleviated by following the simple design philosophy outlined in the British Standard. This philosophy assumes that groundwater will be present at some point during the life of the structure, that defects will occur in workmanship or materials, and that the consequences of those defects will be totally unacceptable.
All of our structural waterproofing installations follow a structured inspection programme throughout the project lifecycle, from pre-installation surveys and material certification through to post-installation testing and sign-off.
