Uni-dam
Rainwater Management System
Developed to combat and control extreme precipitation
Strengthening your guttering with an additional rainwater management system like Uni-dam not only fortifies guttering and increases longevity, but protects your building from water damage – eliminating disruption and unexpected costs.
With extreme precipitation becoming increasingly common in the UK, this is essential; many existing gutter systems are able to cope with lighter rainfall conditions but cannot handle very heavy storms.
Uni-dam is an innovative rainwater management system engineered to combat these extreme precipitation conditions and to prevent water ingress into industrial and commercial buildings.
How Does Uni-dam Work?
The system comprises a series of blade-like dams manufactured from materials sympathetic to the original roof.
They are fitted at right angles along the entire roof slope to the rib of the roof, avoiding any roof lights or protrusions. The rear of the dam blade is profiled to match the roof sheet while providing a small, controlled gap between the roof sheet and the blade edge.
This gap allows light to medium rainfall to pass beneath the blade and into the gutter in a normal way.
As rainfall intensifies during a heavy storm, and builds in speed and depth as it travels down-slope, the blades create mini dams to arrest the excess water.
This de-energises the water’s speed and contains its volume.
The gap beneath the blade will allow water to discharge in a controlled manner and in amounts that allow gutters and outlets to perform, thereby preventing overflow into the building.

“ I have been actively involved in a wide number of projects since 2003 installing Unifold gutter lining systems for many Clients . In that time , thousands of metres have been successfully fitted to a wide range of Industrial and commercial buildings including Schools ; all to the complete satisfaction of the Building Owners . Unifold, unlike some inferior flexible linings in the market is a bespoke designed system . For this reason, amongst others , I believe it to be far superior in offering the Clients both value and also long term performance and integrity."
