Water ingress can result from:
Finding the entry point is not always enough. The underlying cause and route through the building envelope may also need to be established.
Our dedicated survey team can undertake façade condition surveys and intrusive investigations where required.
Investigation can examine:
Depending on the cause, remedial works may include:
The appropriate waterproofing system depends on the existing construction and source of water penetration.
Waterproofing can form part of a much larger remediation project.
For example, replacing cladding may provide an opportunity to address defective membranes and interfaces behind the existing system.
A wider project may therefore involve:
Investigation → Diagnosis → Remediation Strategy → Design → Removal → Waterproofing → Façade Replacement
We work with building owners, developers, managing agents and property professionals dealing with persistent water ingress and external envelope defects.
Projects can range from isolated repairs to complete façade refurbishment.
Effective remediation should address the cause of water penetration rather than simply treating the visible internal symptom.
