A liquid polymer additive for Drybase TS-Plus to enable basement waterproofing.

A durable and easy to apply layer for domestic and commercial applications on concrete and brick surfaces.

First, a fillet is formed around the inside perimeter of the pond using Drybase Universal Mortar. Once the Universal Mortar has cured, two coats of Drybase Tanking Slurry are applied to the sides and floor of the pond. If a tiled finish is required, a 3:1 sand: cement render should be applied over the second coat of Drybase Tanking Slurry…

Bund walls are normally constructed from brick or block, however where they need to contain large volumes of liquid they may also be constructed from reinforced concrete. Detailed information on bunds construction ranging from 1000 to 25000 litres can be found in CIRIA Report R163 “Construction of bunds for oil storage tanks”¹

It should be quickly established if any contamination may have occurred, as this will strongly affect how the whole flood remediation process is handled. It should be noted that although flood water may not contain contaminants from its source, it may have picked up contaminating materials during the flood period.

However, flood resistance cannot be relied on in all situations. For example, in some cases the building structure may be unable to cope with the pressures exerted by high levels of flooding or it may simply be impractical to install flood resistance measures that can be relied upon to provide adequate protection. In these cases the alternative strategy of “flood…

Concrete planters can easily be waterproofed using Drybase Elasticised Tanking Slurry. Perfect for situations where movement is possible (due to temperature fluctuations, etc).

Chimneys are more exposed than any other part of a building so it's not surprising that they are particularly vulnerable to rain penetration
