Little Acres Stage 1
Little Acres was a large hole in the ground which was being turned into a luxury house with a large basement which was to be a cinema and games room. The excavation filled with water.
To comply with BS 8102 the ground was drained by means of pumps, sumps and land drainage. The outside of the building was encapsulated with MS 20 below the slab (Shown being installed) and Geo Drain over the walls to stop any pressure of water.
The pictures show Maclennan-LSE staff installing MS 20 onto the slab. Concrete slab reinforcement on the MS20. The inside was lined with System 500 on the walls and MS 20 on the floors with drainage to a large external sump and pumps.
The work was guaranteed by Maclennan-LSE for 10 years and that was underwritten by the GPI which is the only long term waterproofing insurance available. The Guarantees can be extended for a larger premium if required. Maclennan-LSE take the risk out of Waterproofing. Maclennan-LSE is the trading name for LSE Building Preservation Ltd.
