Key Areas for Construction Waterproofing

1. Foundation:

Foundation Waterproofing | ESLR

The foundation is the base of any structure that transfers load from the superstructure to the earth and hence entire building's life depends on this foundation. Waterproofing the foundation prevents water seepage that can weaken the structure over time. A strong, dry foundation ensures your home remains stable and secure.

2. Roof:

Exterior walls are constantly exposed to weather elements. It is very important to do waterproofing to exterior walls to protect from extreme heat and harsh rainy conditions preventing cracks and erosion. This will not only maintain the aesthetic appearance of your home but also strengthen the structure.

4. Bathroom:

Bathrooms are high-moisture areas prone to leakage. Waterproofing bathroom surfaces protects your home from damage due to spills, humidity, and weather exposure, preserving surfaces and structural integrity. This prevents mold growth and maintains a dry, healthy home.

5. Kitchen & Exterior Areas:

Kitchens and exterior areas like balconies and terraces also need waterproofing. Waterproofing kitchen walls helps to protect them from moisture-related damages, heat, extreme climatic conditions, water absorptions, etc. which affects paint and plaster eventually causing damage.

6. Water Tanks:

Well-sealed water tanks protect the quality of your water supply and prevent potential water damage to your home. Water tanks, if not properly waterproofed, can lead to leakage and contamination.
