A technically well-executed construction starts at the base - and this base, in addition to structural, is functional. Yek ji deverên herî krîtîk û, di heman demê de, pir caran di projeyên avahiyê û rehabilitasyonê de têne paşguh kirin Waterproofing and protection of structures. In Slick Brick, we look at this component as fundamental to guarantee the longevity, health and technical quality of buildings.
A Waterproofing-. A.
Slick Brick's approach to waterproofing is technical, detailed and integrated from the project. The choice of sistemi e materiali adattiis always adjusted to the type of construction, geographical location, use of the building and particularities of each area. We work with liquid membranes, two-component cementitious systems, bituminous blankets, polyurethane solutions, elastic waterproofing and water-repellent additives, among others — all with technical validation and specialized application.
Amongst the critical elements that must always be waterproofed, the following stand out:
- Flat and sloping roofs
- Terraces and balconies
- Buried walls and foundations
- Ground floor slabs
- Indoor wet areas(bathrooms, laundry rooms, kitchens)
- Structural joints and transition points
A recurring case in residential and industrial projects is ascending humiditydans les walls avec direct contact avec le terre. In these cases, it is essential to apply effective horizontal and vertical barriers, which prevents the migration of moisture by capillary action. In new constructions, it is possible to integrate these solutions cleanly and permanently. In rehabilitation, we apply injection systems, passive drainage and external waterproofing with geotextiles, assuring protection without compromising the existing structure.
Another highlight is the Waterproofing of flat roofs, a. A Slick Brick Applies high elasticity liquid membranes, reinforced with nets or technical fabrics, which form a continuous layer without alteration and resistant to thermal expansion. Quando necessario, questi sono combinati con Inverted thermal insulation(duo system) to reinforce energy efficiency.
L'importanza di impermeabile a più di protezione della struttura - è direttamente influenzia la inner comfort, and efficienza energetica, and kualitas de aireand the valore del proprietà. A building with humidity problems is more difficult to sell or rent, can have higher energy consumption (due to compromised thermal inertia) and compromises the health of the occupants.
A foundation drainage, in turn, is one of the specialties of our technical approach. In areas with high water table or clay soils, we design and implement peripheral drainage systems with perforated pipes, geotextiles and inspection boxes, connected to pumping wells or collectors, as the case may be. This invisible infrastructure is often decisive for the stability and longevity of the construction.
Finally, with regard to waterdicht kleuren, we apply specific coatings in areas of intense exposure to water or moisture, such as north-facing facades, retaining walls and technical boxes. These products form a protective film that repels water, maintains the breathability of the surface and reduces the need for maintenance in the medium term.
Waterproofing should be thought of as a teknisk forsvarslag, integrato nel logica progetto, con prodotti certificati, soluzioni testati e applicazioni per i squadre specializzati. En Slick Brick, cette attention à la detail translates into more durable works, avec mindre nødvendig, høyere effektivitet og bedre teknisk prestanda.
Bygg til at resist ikke er idealet - det er en daglig praksen som begynner under de overflate og beskytter alt som er bygget.
1. What is waterproofing in construction?
Het is een set van technieken en materialen toepassingen voor het ingress of water in een structuur en architectuur elementen.
2. Where is it mandatory to waterproof a building?
Rofen, terras, badkamer, grunnlegg, grunnlegg og områder med kontakt med grunn är alltid som kritisk områder.
3. Does waterproofing prevent indoor humidity?
Ja. A well-applied waterproofing prevents infiltration, rising moisture and internal condensation.
4. Is it possible to waterproof old buildings?
Ja. There are specific technical solutions for rehabilitation, including injections, linings and drains.
5. What is the best solution to waterproof a roof?
It depends on the type of coverage. Liquid membranes, bituminous blankets and polyurethanes are common options, applied according to the project.
6. Is waterproofing valid?
Ja. Each system has an estimated durability. With proper maintenance, it can last for decades. The right choice and rigorous application are crucial.
