A building or structure needs waterproofing, as concrete itself is not watertight. The conventional system of waterproofing involves 'membranes' applied to the positive, or exterior side of the below grade foundation wall. A watertight building envelope relies on the application of one or more layers of membrane that act as a barrier between exterior water and the building structure.
This barrier will create a lasting dry basement, and will also enhance air quality in your home or building. New membrane materials seek to overcome shortcomings in older methods like damproofing. Generally, new technology in waterproofing membranes relies on polymer based materials that are extremely adhesive and can stretch to bridge small cracks on a foundation.

Exterior Waterproofing is critical in producing a water tight building envelope. Our exterior waterproofing of choice is a fluid applied continuous waterproofing membrane. Our waterproofing membranes are water based, rubberized asphaltic emulsion. They are non-solvent and low VOC. Standard application is one 40 mil dry coat, multiple coat application available upon request.

No. Walls, footings, and cold joint must be completely dry for us to apply our spray on membrane. Work is weather dependent. No. Walls, footings, and cold joint must be completely dry for us to apply our spray on membrane, chances are they are still wet from the downpour we just had. The concrete must be dry for us to apply the membrane and for it to cure on the wall.
