The various types of waterproofing

Products for waterproofing external floors and roofs must be chosen carefully to obtain the desired performance against infiltration. A valid solution is the application of solid structures such as cement sheaths: an ideal option for the protection of large surfaces.

The waterproofing sheaths differ in some aspects, with the self-adhesive membranes, easy to install, suitable for roofs and wooden surfaces, or the thermo-adhesive ones with fixing via the use of the flame. As regards the external covering, some products are rough, while others have aesthetically refined finishes for visible applications. 

Alternatively, it is possible to choose liquid waterproofing: ready-made compounds or to be mixed with special mixing drills, capable of ensuring maximum versatility for protection of external structures. These products are suitable for small or medium-sized terraces and balconies, or for vertical surfaces, require simple installation, boast a high degree of resistance to sunlight and a better aesthetic appearance .

Which waterproofing to choose

To identify the right option for roof waterproofing it is necessary to take into account the existing thermal insulation on which the external protection will have to be applied, the coating to be added at the end of the works and the type of structure on which to intervene. Furthermore, it is important to evaluate the degree of waterproofing you want to achieve, the quality/price ratio of the various materials and the installation methods. 

The assembly can take place on top of the old flooring or by removing it and then applying a new support and the sheath or liquid waterproofing. In any case the installation must be very careful, to avoid any defects and dangerous water infiltrations, considering the mechanical resistance and durability of the material to be used.
