Hello everyone, following on from the completion of waterproofing the roof, we will be carrying out a test which identifies any areas of potential weakness. Any areas if found will be eliminated so that the waterproofing system remains 100% waterproof. Here is a short clip showing how we do this. Any questions feel free to ask.

Hi all, following a break in recent poor weather, we've managed to fill in around 50% of the old drainage gully with concrete. By producing a smooth and rounded finish we can prepare for the next material application, and hopefully when the weather picks up again we can complete the concrete works. Any questions, please feel free to comment, or we will see you soon for another update.
