🎉 11 YEARS OF KEN RUSSELL! 💚

Another year, another milestone - and today we’re celebrating the one and only Ken Russell as he marks an incredible 11 years with WestWood! 👏

Over the years, Ken has become a hugely valued part of the team, bringing bags of experience, technical know-how and, of course, plenty of cheeky banter along the way! 😄

Whether he’s tackling challenges on site, sharing his knowledge, winding up the team or simply keeping everyone entertained, Ken’s commitment and personality continue to make a real difference.

11 years of hard work, loyalty, laughs and plenty of WestWood memories along the way!

A massive thank you, Ken, for everything you continue to bring to the team - we wouldn’t have you any other way! 💚

Here’s to year 12… and hopefully no slowing down on the cheeky comments! 🥂😄

💚 WISHING GILL A VERY HAPPY RETIREMENT!

After a decade of dedication to WestWood, the time has come for our Financial Controller, Gill, to close the spreadsheets, step away from the numbers and begin a very well-earned retirement.

Over the past ten years, Gill has been an important part of the WestWood team, sharing in the challenges, changes and successes along the way. Her commitment, hard work and support have been hugely valued, and while we know she doesn’t want a big fuss, we couldn’t let such a milestone pass without saying a very big THANK YOU. 💚

We’ll let Gill have the final word:
“WestWood has been a big part of my life for the past decade. I’ve seen some comings and goings over the years and now it’s my time to go.
I will miss you all and the trials, tribulations, and triumphs that we have all been through over the years.
I wish WestWood and all who sail in her the very best for the future.
It’s been a privilege working with each and every one of you.”

From everyone at WestWood, thank you, Gill, for everything you’ve given to the business over the past decade.

We wish you a long, happy and thoroughly well-deserved retirement. Enjoy every minute of it! 🥂👏💚

🏙️ Another city. Another brilliant Specifi event.

This time, Luis Ramos and Victoria Ramwell were in London for another fantastic day of conversations with architects, specifiers and businesses from across the industry. 👏

With a huge variety of projects being discussed, it was a great opportunity to hear about the challenges facing today’s designs - and explore how WestWood’s innovative waterproofing technology can help solve them. 💚

That’s what makes events like Specifi so valuable. We get to share our knowledge, showcase what our systems can do and, just as importantly, listen and learn from the people shaping the built environment.

Plenty of great conversations, exciting opportunities and new connections made.

Now for the follow-ups! 🚀

🇩🇪 From the UK to Petershagen - and straight into the action! 💚

We recently had the pleasure of welcoming guests from Ellis Belk and Watts Holt to WestWood’s laboratory and factory facility in Germany for a closer look at what goes into our systems.

From our latest car park build-ups to our pioneering low-odour technology, there was plenty to see - but this wasn’t just a tour. 👀

Rollers at the ready, our guests got hands-on with the materials themselves, experiencing first-hand the products, application techniques and skill that go into delivering a quality WestWood installation. 💪

A brilliant visit, great conversations and another opportunity to strengthen the relationships that make what we do even better.

A huge thank you to everyone at Ellis Belk and Watts Holt who joined us - we’re already looking forward to the next one! 👏

🚗 Before you specify the solution, understand the surface.

When it comes to car park refurbishment, what’s happening beneath the system matters just as much as what goes on top.

During a recent survey, the WestWood team carried out pull-off adhesion testing to determine whether the existing concrete deck was suitable for direct overlay.

Following preparation, Wecryl 821 Pre Primer was applied to close the concrete capillaries, minimise potential outgassing and create a strong structural bond with the substrate. PMMA resin-bonded dollies were then put to the test. 💪

The result? Bond strengths that comfortably exceeded the minimum requirement - confirming the concrete was suitable for direct overlay. ✅

It’s a relatively simple test that can make a huge difference to the specification.

Because when long-term performance matters, you don’t guess what’s beneath the surface - you test it. 💚

🔍 The right specification starts before the system is even chosen.

On this project, the WestWood team was called in to survey an existing FPO single-ply membrane roof - and rather than making assumptions, we put the options to the test.

Three trial areas. Three different combinations of preparation and primer. One clear objective - establish exactly what works best for this roof. 💚

Because every existing substrate brings its own challenges. Taking the time to test adhesion, assess preparation requirements and understand the existing system means we can build the specification around what the project actually needs.

No guesswork. No one-size-fits-all approach.
Just proper due diligence, informed specification and a waterproofing solution designed to perform. 💪

Test. Assess. Specify with confidence.

Meet Michael Atkinson : Our Field Technician

At WestWood, we’re proud to have a team where people feel supported, trusted and able to be themselves. Since joining us in January as a Field Technician, Michael has settled into the team brilliantly and is really enjoying his time with us.

When asked about his experience since joining WestWood, Michael said:

“From my very first day at WestWood, everyone has been brilliant. I couldn’t have asked to work with or for a nicer group of people. It’s a great environment to work in, and the support from everyone has made the transition seamless.

I’m really enjoying my role within the company. It’s a very happy place to work, and the freedom and trust to use my own initiative has really worked for me. I like being given the opportunity to take ownership of what I do and find the best way to get the job done.

My goal is to help WestWood grow while continuing to develop and become the best version of myself. I believe that if I focus on those things, everything else will take care of itself.

Looking ahead, over the next year I’d like to continue building my experience, become an established member of the WestWood team and play my part in helping the company continue to grow.”

It’s fantastic to have Michael as part of the WestWood team, and we’re looking forward to seeing him continue to develop in his role and make his mark within the company.

Please join us in giving Michael a warm WestWood welcome! 👏

☀️ Hot weather changes the challenge - but it shouldn’t compromise the result.

As temperatures climb, roof surfaces can become significantly hotter than the air around them, placing additional demands on waterproofing products and the teams applying them.

That’s why thinking about the conditions at specification stage matters.

WestWood’s fast-curing PMMA systems are designed to deliver reliable, seamless waterproofing across roofs, balconies, walkways and car park decks - with lighter finish options helping to reflect sunlight and reduce surface heat build-up during warmer periods. 💚

The benefits go beyond application too. A well-specified system can provide durable protection, excellent UV stability and dependable performance long after summer has passed.

Different conditions demand smarter specification - and summer is no exception. ☀️

🤝 Great projects start long before work begins on site.

WestWood and Everlast Group recently came together at EverlastGroup’s HQ in Leeds for a pre-start Design and Health & Safety meeting with our mutual client, ahead of an exciting project on the South Coast.

These early conversations matter. They’re an opportunity to bring everyone around the table, work through the finer details and make sure the design, programme and safety considerations are aligned before the project gets underway.

Because getting the details right at the start helps everything run more smoothly when the real work begins. 💚

A big thank you to the Everlast team for the fantastic hospitality. We’re looking forward to seeing this project take shape!
