We assess the environment, choose the right membrane system and prepare the substrate properly so that water is directed away, not into your building. The result? A dry, protected space with less risk of damage long term.

What is external tanking in waterproofing?
External tanking refers to applying waterproofing systems on the outside face of structures below ground level, such as basements, retaining walls, or planters, to prevent groundwater from seeping into building interiors or structural foundations.
What types of membranes are used for external tanking?
External tanking typically uses sheet membranes (such as torch-on or self-adhesive types), liquid-applied membranes, or bentonite clay systems. The choice depends on site conditions, substrate type, access, and the project's long-term durability requirements.
Is drainage required with external tanking systems?
Yes, good drainage is critical to the success of external tanking. Waterproofing membranes alone may not withstand hydrostatic pressure without adequate drainage, such as ag lines or gravel backfill, to redirect water away from the building envelope.
