The control of water ingress, as well as egress from below ground and water retaining structures has always been a challenge for the construction and civil engineering industry.
EPR Contracts have a dedicated in-house team with the ability to design and install a range of bespoke performance coating, tanking, sealing and waterproofing systems to prevent the ingress or egress of water in above and below ground structures.
We work closely with industry leading system manufacturers and offer technical advice and guidance giving you peace of mind from project inception to completion.
We are able to protect structures above and below ground in accordance with current industry guidance and building standards as well as the relevant British Standard 8102:2022 the ‘Code of Practice for Protection of Below Ground Structures Against Water Ingress’
Examples of some of the structures and facilities we work on are:
· Reservoirs
· Lift pits
· Underground car parks
· Swimming pools
· Storage tanks
· Tunnels
· Containment Bunds
· Cable trenches
We offer fully designed and engineered, solutions-based approach which is often covered by manufacturer as well as our approved installer guarantees. We can also offer independent insurance-backed guarantees if required (terms and conditions apply)
We offer tailored solutions working in partnership with some of the world’s leading system and material manufacturers installing:
· SIKA 1 Multi-coat renders and screeds
· Thick and thin coat cementitious waterproof membranes, renders and slurry’s
· Cavity drain membranes along with ancillary drainage, pumps and interconnecting pipework
· Liquid applied membranes (LAM’s)
· Polyurethane and polymer grout injection for leak sealing and water stopping
· Joint and crack sealing using rapid curing water stops and injections
· Post and pre applied waterproof sheet membranes .
Polyurea coatings are advanced protective solutions known for their exceptional durability and flexibility. Created through the reaction of isocyanates and synthetic resins these coatings cure rapidly, often within seconds and can be used for a wide range of applications
Sika 1 Render is a high-performance, pre-bagged waterproofing system designed for both above and below ground structures. It consists of specially graded aggregates and cements with waterproofing admixtures, providing a durable and effective barrier against water ingress
Resin injection into concrete is a repair technique that involves injecting specialized resin into cracks or voids within the concrete structure. This process creates a durable bond, effectively sealing and reinforcing the damaged areas
A cavity drain system is a waterproofing solution designed for below-ground structures like basements and cellars. It uses a cuspated membrane applied to walls and floors, allowing water ingress to be directed to a perimeter channel
