External wall waterproofing is crucial for protecting your building's structure from moisture infiltration, which can lead to various problems such as mold growth, structural deterioration, and damage to interior finishes.
Common waterproofing materials for external walls include:
Cementitious Waterproofing Coatings: Applied as a cement-based slurry or mortar, forming a durable waterproof layer when cured.
Liquid Membranes: Applied as a liquid and form a flexible waterproof membrane when cured. These membranes can be elastomeric or polymer-modified.
Bituminous Coatings: Applied hot or cold, forming a waterproof layer that adheres to the wall surface.
Waterproofing Membranes: Sheets or rolls applied to the wall surface and bonded with adhesive.
