When a developer wanted to increase the space of this amazing north London home, they chose a specialist basement contractor to build this space and chose Wykamol to help with the waterproofing design and supply of specialist waterproofing products.

This huge underground design over 1500 square feet of space which has been created by the contractor, who needed a bespoke design to achieve a BS8102 scheme to create a grade 3 environment within the space, they asked for Wykamol’s help in a dual waterproofing design.

Wykamol Hydradry, a crystalline cement-based coating, was applied to all the new built concrete walls and floors as a primary resistance coating followed by a full Cavity drain membrane system using 8mm and 20mm membrane systems incorporating a full perimeter channel system.

This gives a full dual Type A and Type C system which gives a full scheme for the insurers and too cover BS8102.

Working on projects like these the Design team at Wykamol can offer solutions on all below ground structures and of course if necessary Wykamol are able to offer their Pi insurance to cover on the design.

Wykamol’s team of designers of waterproofing are covered by CSSW qualifications and can sign off projects for insurers on these types of projects.

Care must be taken when working below ground to fully understand the implications of the design of the build to determine which system is best suited to the type of construction is to be used.

Rest assured when dealing with the Wykamol team that not only can they design but they can also attend sites on multiple occasions to check on progress and to give advice if needed on any installation issues there could be.
