Benefits of Waterproofing Your Home

Waterproofing is often a lower priority or excluded when planning for the pre-construction process, focusing on other factors such as design specifications and site preparation. 

Waterproofing is also one element that increases the overall construction budget more often than not due to the complexities of the process. 

But living in a country that is susceptible to constant thunderstorms, rainy weather and frequent monsoon seasons increase the risk of damage to surfaces, in the long run, deteriorating the building’s aesthetics as well as the quality of the interior and exterior surfaces of the building. Let's know more about how to get rid of these problems and how to prevent House, and building damage. 

Why Is Waterproofing Necessary?

Waterproofing is essential to help reduce moisture levels in the interior & exterior surfaces, preventing water damage and structural breakdown across common surfaces such as walls, ceilings, basements, floors, rooftops & bathrooms.

A Waterproofing Checklist

Waterproofing systems and coatings vary for different building typologies, depending on the conditions. Whether restoring older buildings or working on new projects, it remains critical to take into account these considerations to protect structures for the long run:

  • Assess the current underlying conditions and issues of the buildings prior to the development and construction process.

  • Identify areas that require waterproofing systems

  • A durable solution is key
