Waterproofing & Tanking
Preventing the ingress or egress of water from structures such as swimming pools, water tanks, basements, lift pits etc can be problematic. South West Concrete Repairs Ltd have numerous specialist suppliers who have a range of waterproofing and tanking systems.
As well as cementitious slurry coat systems there are bitumen based, plastic sheet membrane, polymer and resin based systems. Each one designed for specific purposes.
Cement based Aquatech Tankit and K-X-11-11 admixture used to seal the floor and wall areas to this partially underground shop floor.

Leaks to this lift pit needed Fosroc Reneroc Plug, Resin injection and new angle fillets with a final two coat application of cementitious tanking.

The new waste plant on the island of Jersey incorporated a sludge tank linked to the incinerator to utilise household rubbish.
The tank needed to be coated with a very hard wearing, chemical resistant coating. The Bio Perl system manufactured by Max Perles of France was selected and works carried out over a two week period.

After gritblasting the walls a new angle fillet was formed at the wall/floor joint.
The walls and floor were then primed and given a first coat. A fibre glass membrane was then cut and embedded into the still wet first coat.

After embedding the fibreglass membrane another coating applied to ensure complete coverage.

On completion of the final topcoat all surfaces electrically tested for full seal. |
