What we offer
BWS technicians are experienced in the installation of internal tanking, either Type A or Type C. Type C internal cavity drain installations can be used as a second line of waterproofing defence on new build or primary remedial waterproofing of existing structure. Due to stresses placed on existing structures by installing Type A internally we usually specify a Type C. Water within the internal cavity drain system would be gravity fed to an outlet on a semi basement project and discharged using a sump with pump on a full basement.
As required in BS8102:2022, installation defects are avoided by ensuring our competent technicians are supervised throughout the project, with each aspect of work logged and approved throughout the installation and records kept. Our installers and supervisors have attended and passed industry recognised waterproofing technicians courses.
