Type C, Cavity Drainage Waterproofing

OVERVIEW

Delta Registered Installers, Bensleys provided a waterproofing solution on an iconic Brighton structure.

Steeped in history and thought to be built on the original Brill Baths site, sits Clarendon Mansions. This large, detached structure is thought to have been built in 1870 by Charles Brill during the Brighton boom.


The four-storey building facing Brighton’s famous sea front, was originally constructed as a hotel.


Numerous refurbishments over subsequent periods of time, saw the structure move from a hotel to a public house, with the basement area being unoccupied for nearly a decade.


The basement area boasts large, vaulted areas to the south and west elevation, with the south-side possibly being part of the original Bath structure.


Bensleys were instructed by the main contractor, Pilbeam Construction on behalf of Evolution Architects, to help design, specify and install the waterproofing system.

There’s no one-size-fits-all when it comes to waterproofing design. With the basement suffering from water penetration, Bensleys worked with the design team at an early stage of the project to ensure the right approach be taken, which included multiple factors such as: customer requirements, standards, robustness, cost, resources, time, skill required, safety and expectations of ground water which all translated into a design solution.
