Documenting defects at Taylor Wimpey Central London Development

6. External wall build-up was not as the drawings. Where as-built drawings indicated that make-up was to consist of 200mm full fill Rockwool, investigation revealed 100mm had been provided and in some areas was missing entirely.

2. Fire stopping missing at points where the MVHR ducting pass through compartment walls. Some have been sealed with a white mastic instead of HPE mastic (which is black in colour).


1. Penetrations made through party walls without any fire protection, thus breaching the fire compartmentation required.
