A private home in a housing development threatened by a massive amount of groundwater has recently been saved by an innovative and highly economical Kaytech drainage system.

Kaytech recently played a significant role in a subsoil drainage upgrade at Durban’s Greyville Racecourse.

Construction of underground premises can be tricky when there is excess subsurface water.  Kaytech’s Flo-Drain provides a purpose-made, cost-effective solution to this type of subsoil drainage situation.  This problem presented itself when a basement garage was under construction for a Kempton Park home owner’s private car collection. On excavating the site, ground water was exposed that needed to be collected and drained in a controlled manner.
