Durable and seamless waterproofing to safeguard your home from water damage
Water is an essential source of life and prosperity and plays a vital role in maintaining our health, grow our food or in managing the various aspects of life.
For the construction industry, water is a vital component as it is required in the production process for many building materials such as concrete, steel and paint. However, water is also considered as a major threat during construction projects. Water seepage and leakage – due to environment condition or internal piping system – can lead to many arising issues ranging from wood warping, metal IMPORTANCE OF WATERPROOFING Some owners and contractors often seek fabrication turning to rust, mould growth, When it comes to safeguarding a building a bargain when comparing waterproofing bubbles forming under the paint and in against water ingress, there are two materials without fully understanding worst cases buildings failures, all of which possible solutions – damp proofing and that different membranes can produce affect the structural integrity, as well as waterproofing. different results and may not be suitable jeopardizing the safety and health of the Damp proofing is a coating, usually for their site conditions. This eventually building occupants. asphalt-based, that is either sprayed on results in inadequate protection against
The phrase “prevention is better or hand applied to the outside of the water ingress, not to mention incurring than cure” says it best; buildings – from wall to keep out soil moisture, whereas further costs to hire contractors to private homes to commercial properties, waterproofing is designed to specifically assess for water leakage, and buying both new and old – need to be protected keep out both moisture and liquid exorbitantly-priced building materials to against water ingress to avoid expensive water. While both are commonly used repair any water damaged area. and irreversible damages. Building solutions, waterproofing is the preferred In recent years, expensive remedial owners, developers and architects choice as it provides complete protection work to correct failures in below-grade are now paying closer attention when from unwanted breach of water in both waterproofing systems has motivated designing the project masterplan, going interior and exterior areas of the building. owners and designers to seek highthrough every detail including fixtures There are three types of performance and reliable waterproofing and fittings with a fine-tooth comb to waterproofing materials including liquid solutions. Riding on the current market eliminate any possibility of water-related applied, cementitious and sheet type trend and driven by technology and issues during and after construction. Even waterproofing membranes. Amongst innovation, Malaysia’s No. 1 coating so, this could not guarantee long-lasting these, the most common and widely solutions provider Nippon Paint, has been protection throughout the lifespan of the used solutions are the liquid applied and developing new waterproofing solutions building. sheet type waterproofing membrane. to enhance the durability of buildings,
and homes - suitable for different types of surface from floors, walls, roof to ceilings, amongst others. Selecting quality, durable waterproofing solutions prevent breach of water and at the same time, protect the building’s structure by keeping interior and exterior areas dry and safe. It is important to ensure that the right waterproofing solution is applied for the specific surface to ensure an effective system for the building.
