Reliable 3rd Party Flat Roof Membrane Integrity Testing

We are your trusted team for third-party Flat Roof Membrane integrity testing, following the standards set by LABC, Premier Guarantee, and NHBC. We ensure your roof, whether new or existing, meets British Standards 6229: 2018 and NHBC Chapter 7.1 specifications. NHBC Chapter 7.1.9 advises visual and electronic testing of roofing membranes to ensure waterproof integrity before adding more layers. Our thorough inspections find and fix any faults, guaranteeing superior waterproofing. Premier Guarantee’s guidelines in section 7.11.15.2 stress the importance of third-party integrity testing for green roofs, requiring the waterproof membrane to be tested independently before further application. Our roof surveys are exhaustive, covering roof penetrations, terminations, equipment mounts, membrane conditions, perimeter flashing, and parapet wall coping. We ensure that every aspect affecting water tightness is inspected and evaluated. Although vacuum testing is effective for off-site manufactured membrane seams, it is not recommended for flat roof integrity testing. We provide customised services to meet your project’s unique needs, offering full Health and Safety Plans, Risk Assessments, and Method Statements, delivering a comprehensive O&M Manual upon completion, ensuring every project is thoroughly documented and secure.
