• Country estate Hotel for Carrilion Value £100,000
  
  

  LSE are working on an elegant Georgian country manor originally established as a Hunting Lodge in the 13th Century, then rebuilt by the Duke of Clarence in the 1740’s for royalty.

  
  Queen Victoria and her family and poets T.S.Eliot and Alfred Lord Tennyson among others have been associated with the estate, which is currently undergoing refurbishment to transform it into ‘the ultimate house in the country’ complete with grand spa. It is expected to re-open summer 2008.
  LSE were employed by Carrilion the main contractors for the project to provide a waterproofing scheme for the four basements being created under the new buildings and the main house.
  
  
  
  LSE designed a membrane and drainage system using Newton Membranes and installed the system to the first three basements. The fourth basement is still under construction.
  
  
  
  Most of the waterproofing relies on the site drainage arrangements although in one area a sump and pumps have had to be installed.
  
  

   

  The membrane system has been installed to the inside of the outside walls and the internal wall has then been built
  
  
   

   

  
  

  
  
  
  
  The Newton Lath system was used for damp proofing internal walls and the ground and first floor of the main house.
   

  
  
  
  
  
  
  
  
  The Newton 500 system was designed in to the parapet construction by LSE to  prevent
  penetrating damp.
  
  
  
  
  
  
  

  All of the work is guaranteed by LSE for 10 years and underwritten by GPI insurance.
