Waterproofing Services

It is critical to ensure that your home is watertight. Our house’s interior spaces, from the attic all the way down to the basement, have to be kept dry. In the worst cases, water infiltration can lead to the collapse of a building, as well as other damages such as insect infestation and mold growth. The prevention of these issues is possible by waterproofing the house before it is built. If you waterproof your house, you can avoid having any damage done to it in the future.

Why is it important to waterproof a house before starting the design process?

In the same way that a home must have an appropriate layout, waterproofing is very important because it assists in maintaining a dry environment inside the home. It helps bring the humidity level down inside the house, which in turn shields the belongings inside the house from the damage that can be caused by high humidity or prolonged exposure to water. It is also essential to the building’s credibility that this be done.

When is the appropriate time to use waterproofing?

During the construction process, extensive waterproofing measures are typically applied to ensure that moisture levels are kept under control from the beginning of the project. It is also possible to waterproof a building after it has been constructed in order to solve problems that have already been encountered.

Can you DIY waterproofing?

Simply put, you should not attempt to do the plumbing or electrical work on your own. It is highly likely against the law to do so, and you do not want to make any mistakes when installing electrical components in damp environments. Whenever you are working on a do-it-yourself project, especially in damp areas, keep your wits about you. In cases where there is room for uncertainty, it is best to delegate the work to trained experts.

How exactly does one go about applying waterproofing?

Check the surface adhesion, clean the work area, apply the corner pieces, apply the tape for the corners and edges, waterproof the plumbing fittings, apply the membrane on the walls, make the necessary corrections and finishing touches, and apply the membrane on the floor in order to seal the bathroom.

How long should a waterproofing treatment remain effective?

Even though basic waterproofing membranes have a lifespan of at least ten years, they have the potential to endure for much longer if the right choice and conditions are met. On the other hand, waterproofing that is of poor quality will almost never hold up over time.
