Our Systems & Expertise

We work with trusted, industry-proven systems including:

  • Sikaproof membrane systems
  • Bentonite sheet membranes

These sheet membrane systems create a continuous barrier against groundwater and hydrostatic pressure. Our team understands the critical detailing required around joints, penetrations, construction seams, and service entries - all points where failures commonly occur if not installed correctly.

Where Below Ground Tanking Is Used

  • Basements
  • Retaining walls
  • Foundations and footings
  • Lift pits
  • Tunnels
  • Below-ground service areas

Why Specialist Installation Matters

Because these systems become permanently enclosed once installed, engaging an approved applicator is essential to ensure compliance, durability, and performance. Gunac brings 40+ years of waterproofing expertise and a thorough understanding of soil conditions, water tables, and structural design requirements.
