Explore expert basement construction insights from Basement Structures North — focusing on shell & core delivery, waterproofing design, temporary works and buildability for premium homes across northern England.
Welcome to
Basement Insights…
…the knowledge hub from Basement Structures North. We share practical guidance and engineering-led thinking to help homeowners, architects and developers plan and deliver premium basements across the North.
Expect clear articles on BS 8102:2022 waterproofing, ground risk and investigation, structural excavation, temporary works, planning constraints and neighbour-sensitive logistics — written from the point of view of teams who build basements every week.
We focus on the parts that matter most: safe excavation, robust structure and long-term maintainability. (We’re a shell & core basement specialist — not a fit-out company.)
