ROOF/ TERRACEWATERPROOFING
Roof areas (sloped/at), balconies and terraces are areas which are most challenged by continuous
weather effects. A continuous cycle of rains, sunlight and frost can cause the roof layers weaken,
thereby allowing rainwater to penetrate through those weak joints, cracks, traps and concrete oors.
Such leakage and seepage can damage not only the construction but the roof interiors of the oor
below.
It is imperative to employ an extensive waterproong conguration to protect the roof & concrete from
such weathering effects. Investments on waterproong are way lower in comparison to the continuous
repair costs caused by damage. Below are some recommended products that can waterproof by
covering in layers on the substrate. In fact, some products also act as a thermal insulation and can help
maintain temperatures inside.

IMPORTANT NOTE
Process designing is important for any w a t e r p r o o n g s o l u t i o n a s environmental dynamics, usage, construction design and other factors must be considered. Each requirement will vary in the mentioned aspects, reason for which there cannot be one standard solution/set of products for all situations. It is therefore recommended to consult with our technical team, structural/project consultants and the engineering team at the buyers end before concluding the most appropriate solution.
