  • Our surveyor will oversee our involvement and advise on timings and fitting windows to ensure that other trades can get on with their work without damaging what we install
  • Our trained on product installation technicians will make sure that everything we have recommended is installed to the highest industry standards

Areas of specialisation and experience in sealing

  • Utilities: Water, Gas and Electricity

We always design and install to BS8102

All our work is carried out to the exacting standards that BS 8102 requires. The standard is there so that you can be sure that all work we carry out is fully compliant with current best practice and regulations.

And all our work is guaranteed

This also means we can provide project specific insurance to cover for failure and remedial work if required. In addition to this andIf required for structures that contain valuable plant, artefacts or business or operationally critical assets;we can also provide consequential loss cover should a building or structure become either unusable or uninhabitable as a result of water or chemical ingress due to installation or system failure.

 

Technologies for a changing environment and designing for the future

We work with industry leading manufactures to ensure that whatever we or you specify is best in class and will cope with the demands made on it. Many products we use are unique to us and are approved by organisations such as German Railways for up to an 80-yearlife and beyond.

We use:

  • Technologies such as membranes and water-stops that will cope with the current environment and can adapt if the climate or local environment changes
  • Technologies that will adapt and evolve with the structure
  • Technologies that can cope with rising or variable water tables
  • Sealing systems that are flexible and resistant to pollution
