Bognor Regis, West Sussex
Basement Tanking in Bognor Regis
Cementitious tanking and cavity drain systems for basements, cellars and below-ground rooms.
Basement Tanking in Bognor Regis is work we take on regularly, and the West Sussex housing stock is a big part of why.
Most of what we see around Bognor Regis reflects the wider West Sussex pattern — flint and brick cottages, Victorian seaside terraces and large modern developments, and salt weathering on the coastal strip and lime work on flint.
Bognor Regis sits in a part of the UK that gets mild southern conditions with coastal salt exposure — worth factoring into any render decision. The flint villages of the south downs need lime, while the seafront strip from bognor to shoreham takes constant salt loading.
When basement tanking is the right call. Choose tanking for cellar and basement conversions, persistently wet below-ground rooms, and any space you intend to make habitable.

FAQs
Basement Tanking in Bognor Regis
Can you render over existing render?
Sometimes, if the existing coat is completely sound and well-bonded. We hammer-test it first. Anything hollow has to come off, because covering failure just hides it.
Are you insured?
Yes — full public liability cover, and we can send the certificate before we start. We are happy to provide RAMS for commercial and contractor work.
What areas do you cover?
We work UK-wide, with teams across England, Scotland, Wales and Northern Ireland. If we are not the right firm for your location we will tell you rather than waste your time.
What is the difference between Type A and Type C waterproofing?
Type A is a bonded barrier that keeps water out entirely. Type C accepts ingress, then drains and pumps it away behind a membrane. Type C is more forgiving of structural imperfections.
Does a tanked basement need a pump?
A Type C cavity drain system does — it relies on a sump and pump. A Type A barrier system does not, though a pump is sometimes added as a backup.
