Nippon paint Waterproofing solution and Guide

Dampness of walls and water seepage are common problems faced by homeowners. When exterior walls are exposed to rainwater or high humidity, water and moisture can travel through the masonry and affect your internal walls. This means that your walls may stay damp for a long time before drying, which may lead to mold growth and irreparable damage.

With the countless problems that come from water seepage and leakage, Nippon Paint caters to solutions that protect and prevent from unwanted breach of water. Guard the integrity of your building by keeping your interior and exterior areas dry with durable and seamless heavy-duty coatings.

Nippon paint Professionals assess your needs, evaluate your home and conduct a consultation. This will help you choose products to fit your style and budget.

Prepare your walls for waterproofing:

Irrespective of the product chosen for waterproofing exterior walls, you have to bring your walls in good condition first. This means that you need to use a good-quality filler to repair cracks and patch holes. Allow the filler to dry optimally before grinding. Then sand away rough, uneven areas, remove dust by cleaning the surface with water, and let the walls dry completely to ensure a good adhesion between the waterproofs and the substrate.

Select the right waterproofing product:

A series of waterproofing products are available today to help homeowners protect their homes from external moisture. Here are a few products you should consider:

Concrete waterproofing coating, which is a cement-like product that adheres to concrete and masonry permanently; it can be applied to any surface, including painted walls.

Silicate-based concrete sealer, which reacts with the ingredients in masonry and concrete to form a waterproofing coating; this sealer can only be used on unsealed/unpainted walls.

Waterproofing paint, which is similar to acrylic wall paint, with the main difference that it delivers better waterproofing performance. It’s very important to choose a breathable formulation that is especially designed to allow walls to breathe and eliminate moisture. The product can be applied to surfaces previously painted.
