Case study
Substructure for a new build plot
Foundation walls, membrane and below-slab drainage for a new build.
The challenge
The substructure had to be built up to damp course level, with the drainage brought through in the right positions before the slab was formed.
How we delivered it
Stage 1: Substructure walls
Brick and block foundation walls were built up to damp course level.
Stage 2: Membrane and drainage
The membrane was laid, with drainage brought through ready for the slab.
The result
A substructure ready for the slab and the trades that follow.
