The NHBC Standards 2024 have set new benchmarks in construction, particularly in the area of drainage for balconies and terraces. At AliDeck, understanding and aligning with these standards is not just a compliance measure; it’s a commitment to quality and safety. This post delves into the importance of these standards and how AliDeck’s solutions are at the forefront of meeting these new requirements.

The NHBC Standards for 2024 have introduced rigorous guidelines for rainwater drainage on balconies and terraces. These standards emphasise the need for effective drainage systems to prevent water accumulation, which can lead to structural and safety issues. 

The focus is on ensuring that all construction projects incorporate drainage solutions that are not only efficient but also sustainable and long-lasting. AliDeck’s approach to drainage solutions is in complete harmony with the NHBC Standards 2024. 

Having hosted members of the NHBC Standards team in July 2023, our technical team has gained in-depth insights into these new requirements. This meeting underscored our commitment to staying ahead in the industry, ensuring our products are not just compliant but also innovative and reliable. Following this meeting, AliDeck launched a new brand dedicated to aluminium drainage solutions, AliDrain.

Effective drainage systems are crucial for the longevity and safety of balconies and terraces. Poor drainage can lead to water damage, structural issues, and even safety hazards. AliDrain’s aluminium drainage solutions are designed to address these challenges head-on, providing systems that ensure proper water management and contribute to the overall integrity of the structure.

Our history with NHBC projects speaks volumes about our commitment to excellence. AliDeck’s drainage solutions have been approved and implemented in numerous NHBC projects over the years. As we step into 2024, we are confident that our solutions will continue to set industry standards, reflecting our dedication to quality and safety.

The latest NHBC Standards are a significant step forward in ensuring safer and more efficient construction practices, especially concerning rainwater drainage on balconies and terraces. AliDeck’s alignment with these standards demonstrates our unwavering commitment to delivering the best in the industry. 

We are not just adapting to new standards; we are embracing them, ensuring that every project we undertake is a testament to our dedication to quality, safety, and innovation.
