Crossacres – Octagon Developments
Award winning luxury house developer Octagon Developments required waterproofing and drainage solutions for their prestigious £17m house in Virginia Water.
THE CHALLENGE
Octagon Developments create prestigious homes throughout London and the home counties. Situated within the world famous Wentworth Estate, Crossacres is a magnificent country mansion set in over 2 acres of beautifully landscaped south facing grounds. Extending to around 15,000 sq ft of accommodation, this stunning home features 7 bedroom suites, 6 reception rooms, staff accommodation, underground car park, a choice of both indoor and outdoor pools and an all-weather tennis court.
Wetrooms UK were approached by Octagon Developments to supply and install wetroom systems and waterproofing solutions into the Master Bathroom, Gym and three further En-Suites at the luxury house in Virginia Water. All wetrooms were to be installed onto solid floors.
THE SOLUTION
Wetrooms UK recommended the installation of Linear Screed Drains into each of the wet areas of the development, capable of coping with flow rates of up to 29 L/min.
Falls were created within the screed before the Linear Screed Drains and solid linear grills, manufactured by Wetrooms UK, were installed into the required floor or wall position within each bathroom.
RIW Tilesafe waterproof membrane was applied to the floor and wall junctions within each of the shower areas and across the floor area, finishing 1 metre outside the shower area.
RIW FWM was then applied full height to the shower walls, linking to the RIW Tilesafe membrane, to prevent any
water penetration.
