CASE STUDY Bourne Hall Community Centre, Ewell, Surrey

Severe flood damage to the walls and floor rectified by specialist contractor Oak Damp Proofing using materials from Delta Membrane Systems.

Substantial flooding to a subterranean hall with dance floor at Bourne Hall Community Centre resulted in severe damage to the walls and floor.

Water had seeped through the junction of the wall and the floor.

Specialist contractor Oak Damp Proofing rectified the damage using materials from Delta Membrane Systems.

Delta MS20 for the floor

Delta MS20 is a compression-resistant, durable dimpled sheet made from special high density polyethylene, and is suitable for use as damp proofing on walls and floors.

The heavy gauge option has 20mm deep studs, and can be used in situations where extra drainage capacity is required, or a larger flow rate is needed.

Delta MS500 on the walls

Delta MS500 cavity drainage membrane offers resistance to chemicals and root penetration, and neutrality with drinking water.

Ideally suited for use in refurbishment or creation of basements, this product is part of the Delta System 500 package for basement work. 

Delta Drainage Channel

To ensure moisture is taken from the area, some 90m of Delta Drainage Channel has been installed.

  • water collection conduit is bedded into a preformed channel at the floor/wall angle

Delta Dual Pumps

Two Delta Dual Pumps installed to remove the water from the building.

By using the Delta range of products, Oak Damp Proofing has ensured that the many users of the Bourne Hill Community Centre have been able to return to a ‘Strictly Dry Room’ with Delta Membrane Systems
