VIDEO CASE STUDY
Using Crack Injection method solves basement water leaks.
Water leaks caused extensive damage to the concrete walls and floor of underground garage.
Applied high pressure crack injection to seal & fix major leaks in underground garage concrete roof.
Leaking balconies, roof & rooftop terraces can cause catastrophic damage to structures below.
Water leaks may cause not only aesthetic & superficial damage but in some cases progress to affect the structure of the building envelope itself.
For this project an basement electronic control room experienced water leaks from above – the original waterproof membrane, which was placed between concrete slabs, was defective.
Why Balconies LeakObviously there are many scenarios which will cause balconies to leak however the common ones we come across are:Waterproofing membrane installed incorrectly and cracked.Membrane damaged during construction – we have seen fixing guns puncture a newly installed membrane.Add to that the wrong grout may have been used which is incompatble with the membrane.Not incorporating […]
There are several critical issues unique to keeping a balcony water tight that are not always taken into consideration when designing balcony waterproofing systems.
This project required thorough preparation of the concrete bund lining together with rectification work to the damaged concrete prior to application of a liquid waterproofing system.
Liquid roof coatings are cold spray-applied membranes which create a single, continuous & seamless waterproof roof coating.
