Construction and repair by own hands

Waterproofing works. Types of waterproofing. Classification, purpose, useful advice.

Moisture and water are the main factors that lead to deterioration of the quality characteristics of the structure and the complete or partial destruction of the building. Moisture penetrating into the foundation, walls and roofs of houses (for example, using ruberoid), contributes to the formation of defects and cracks. The surest way to avoid this is waterproofing.

Why is waterproofing important?

At various levels of building the waterproofing is simply necessary. To begin protection from the influence of water follows from the foundation, so that the building is durable and does not suffer from excessive moisture.

In general, waterproofing is an important part of any construction. Even before you begin to build a structure, you must think about all the details of waterproofing works. This will help you reduce construction costs and ensure the best quality of construction.

What is the waterproofing?

Work on the moisture-repellent ability of the building is a guarantee of reliability. Whichever waterproofing works you need, it is best to turn to professionals in this regard. Today, during construction and repair, a lot of methods are used to isolate the structure from moisture. Therefore, the choice of a mixture for waterproofing should take into account the features of the structure and depend on the tasks that you face.

  1. Backfilling waterproofing. Laying in waterproof sealed layers of loose waterproofing materials is made. Allows you to simultaneously produce both waterproofing and thermal insulation. The water resistance of loose materials is average, so special attention should be paid to the separation layers, which must have a good moisture-repellent ability.
  2. Cast waterproofing. Hot asphalt solutions and mastics are poured on vertical and horizontal surfaces. This waterproofing is very durable, but the cost of materials will be significant. In addition, not everyone can perform this waterproofing. In order to properly perform cast waterproofing, certain skills will be required.
  3. Plastered waterproofing. Professionals can use a cold or hot method of isolation. When using this waterproofing layer is applied no more than 2 millimeters. Waterproofing works are carried out with the help of polymer mixtures, plaster, asphalt, waterproofing mastics  and solutions. Plastered waterproofing, whose price is significantly lower than the cast, is ideal if your construction consists of reinforced concrete.
  4. Paint waterproofing. As well as plaster, it can be applied hot or cold. Cold epoxy-rubber and hot polymer-bitumen mixtures are applied to the surface by a thin layer of 1-2 mm. Best of all, this waterproofing is suitable for protection against capillary moisture and corrosion of the structure.

Everyone wants to build a strong and beautiful house that will please his family with warmth and comfort for a long time. Particular attention in the construction of housing should be given waterproofing, which is the guarantor of normal operation of the building, as well as increasing its reliability and durability.

  - is the protection of building structures and buildings from the impact of moisture on them, as well as other environmental factors that cause them harm. Since this process is very important for any construction, it is necessary to pay special attention to the choice of waterproofing material.

It should be remembered that, as waterproofing  and waterproofing material prevent the penetration of moisture inside the building structures, so they must be: waterproof, elastic, heat resistant and mechanically strong.

In addition, the waterproofing material must be attached to the substrate in a high-quality and reliable manner, and withstand severe head pressures, and wind and other mechanical loads.

Has a limited period of effective protection, which is associated with the mode of operation, the quality of insulation and the presence of interaction with an aggressive environment.

The use of high-quality waterproofing and timely repair of it, will make the house warmer, more comfortable and will significantly extend the service life of the structures.

Waterproofing of the foundation

The foundation is the foundation of any structure. Its durability depends on the quality of operation and the durability of the whole house. The foundation can directly contact with atmospheric precipitation and groundwater, which leads to its destruction or subsidence. Moisture, absorbed by the cap, penetrates into the walls and floor, causing mold and fungus, which adversely affects human health. To prevent such problems, waterproofing the foundation is used. It will prevent water from entering the base of the building, which will preserve it for many years. In addition, timely at the stage of construction of the house will save from further expensive and labor-consuming repair of the socle.

There are several ways to protect the foundation from moisture. This process depends on several factors: the depth of occurrence groundwater, the forces of frost heaving, the characteristics of the soil. The most common form of protection of the socle from moisture is horizontal basement waterproofing. It is made at the lowest point under the basement and when connecting the base and the wall. All the works boil down to the fact that a layer of sand (20-30 cm) is poured onto the bottom of the pit and it is poured with concrete (5-7 cm). After the concrete dries completely, it is coated with mastic and covered with a ruberoid. Then the main layer of concrete is poured, on top of which the mastic and ruberoid are again laid.

Another way to protect the plinth from moisture is vertical basement waterproofing. Builders use a wide variety of materials. The most practical and accessible is the bitumen waterproofing  concrete. Hot bituminous mixture is applied to the foundation with a brush in several layers and is brought to 3-5 cm of total thickness. The warranty service life of such insulation is 5 years, but with the help of modern bitumen-polymer additives it can be substantially extended.

A good result of the waterproofing show the pasting materials. The most common is roofing felt, which is mounted with bitumen mastic. However, it can be replaced by more modern analogs with excellent waterproofing properties.

Floor waterproofing

A very important element in supporting the warmth and comfort in the house is the floor. It takes on even greater importance when small children grow up in the house. To avoid problems of dampness, fungus or putrefaction wooden boards  it is necessary to waterproof the floor. There are several options for protecting the floor from moisture.

Liquid floor waterproofing  is a cast or impregnated protection. Cast is used to prepare the working surface before pouring concrete screeds. It is a smooth waterproof film, formed as a result of the floor covering with polymeric or bitumen solutions. Impregnating liquid waterproofing  is the use of polymer impregnations and primers that penetrate the floor to a certain depth or freeze on its surface.

Adhesive materials can also become a good protection of the floor from exposure to moisture. Experts conventionally divide the pasting waterproofing into three types: simple flooring of roll protection (often without fastening) under any kind of floor; attaching the material to the floor surface with a gas burner; sticking of roll insulation on the floor basis with the use of special glue or mastic.

Floor waterproofing can be carried out by staining or coating its surface. The prepared area is applied a variety of mastics, as well as varnishes and paints. This produces a thin enough waterproof layer, which has an anti-corrosion and antifungal protection.

Floor waterproofing  - this is a necessary condition for every living space, which can save heat in the house and guarantee protection from fungus and mold. In addition, this process does not require special skills, which makes it possible for a person who does not have a construction education.

Basement waterproofing

The cellar in a private house or garage has always been the place where a strategic stock of products is stored, a gym or a weapons room is being built. For this purpose, constant moisture is needed, however, its excess can lead to rotting, the appearance of mold and fungus on the walls of the basement. That is why basement waterproofing  is a responsible business both at the construction stage and later. There are several types of protection of the cellar from excess moisture.

Anti-head waterproofing  is a protection from groundwater, which lie close to the floor or at the basement walls. For its creation, slurry solutions are used in several layers. It is important to use mastic based on polymer bitumen between the layers of the solution.

Non-pressure waterproofing  serves to prevent water from entering the basement, which is collected after rain or melting snow, as well as during floods. In this case, the protection of the floor of the room, rather than its walls and ceiling, comes to the fore. Bituminous mastics, which have proved themselves on a very good side, are actively used for their isolation. Anti-capillary waterproofing  It is designed to protect against moisture rising up through the capillaries through the floor and walls. Provide this type of protection can help penetrating waterproofing, as well as the removal of cracks and seams.

Waterproofing of the cellar should be carried out during the construction of the premises, paying special attention to external circumstances (ground characteristics, temperature, depth of groundwater). In this case, you can use both external and internal waterproofing, which will double the desired effect.

Penetrating waterproofing

In construction, a lot of concrete is used, which is a waterproof material, but, as practice shows, it is water-permeable. Penetrating waterproofing  helps to protect concrete structures  from moisture penetration and further destruction.

The principle of operation of this waterproofing is quite simple. A special waterproofing agent is diluted with water and applied to the wall surface. Getting into microcracks and pores of concrete, the active compound of the substance reacts with cement, forming crystals that clog the ducts and cracks. As a result of interaction, the crystals grow, displacing water. Moreover, with the repeated appearance of moisture, their growth resumes. Thus, concrete becomes a monolithic stone that does not allow moisture to pass through, which will significantly prolong the life of the concrete.

Penetrating action is one of the most effective protection against moisture. It is not dangerous to human health and is used for both underground and ground structures. In addition, it is used to impregnate old and new concrete. The resulting coating is a single unit with the structure, excellent reinforcement of concrete and does not lend itself to mechanical influences.

  - Where is it used?

Another advantage of this waterproofing is its ease of use. It is applied with a normal spatula or brush. Universality allows it to be used for external and internal works.

Liquid waterproofing

Liquid waterproofing  is a cast or impregnated protection. Cast waterproofing is used to prepare the working surface before pouring concrete screeds. It is a waterproof film formed as a result of coating the surface of the structure with a polymer or bitumen solution.

Impregnating liquid waterproofing is the use of polymer impregnations and primers that penetrate to a certain depth or freeze on the surface.

Work on waterproofing is a set of actions aimed at isolating the premises from penetration of moisture in them. In the presence of high-quality waterproofing, the service life of the object as a whole substantially increases.

Foundation  - the basis of any structure, and its durability depends on the durability of the building or structure as a whole. In the process of exploitation, the foundation is exposed to ground and rainwater, as well as snow melting and human economic activities. All this increases the risk of destruction of the foundation, which requires its maximum effective waterproofing.
   is a mandatory procedure in most cases, and contributes to protecting the interior of the facility from moisture and damp penetration. Cellars are most vulnerable to ground and rainwater, therefore, in the process of their waterproofing, higher quality requirements are applied.
Ground floor  is a linking element that unites the whole structure and its foundation into a single whole. Accordingly, there are more stringent requirements for strength and reliability. Provide it for a long time can only be using waterproofing surfaces that provide full protection from moisture.
Underground parking lots  . As parking lots can be exposed to sedimentary and groundwater, drains from leaking sewage, water pipes  it is necessary to conduct waterproofing works for safe operation of the premises.
Waterproofing of floors  is primarily aimed at getting rid of dampness in the premises, providing protection from the moisture of interior items.


   cuts off capillary suction of moisture with building materials, thereby reducing the risk of their destruction, reducing the level of depth of freezing of walls.
