Waterproofing

Waterproofing is a crucial process that involves protecting structures from the damaging effects of water intrusion. Integral waterproofing is a method that involves adding admixtures to the concrete during the mixing process to enhance its waterproofing properties. This approach ensures that the structure itself becomes water-resistant, reducing the risk of leaks or dampness. Interior waterproofing focuses on safeguarding the interior spaces from water damage, typically by applying sealants, membranes, or coatings to surfaces such as walls, floors, and basements. On the other hand, exterior waterproofing involves protecting the outer surfaces of a building through techniques like waterproof membranes, coatings, and proper drainage systems, preventing water from penetrating the structure and causing deterioration. Together, these three subcategories of waterproofing provide comprehensive protection against water-related issues, ensuring the longevity and integrity of buildings and structures.
