SK Likproof is leading waterproofing contractors with liquid membrane, app
membrane. A waterproofing membrane is a thin layer of water-tight material that is laid
over a surface. The materials are used in a system to prevent the ingress of water into
foundations, roofs, walls, basements, buildings, and structures when properly installed.
Depending on the structure and need, the waterproofing membrane can either be
applied to the interior (negative), such as the case with repairs, the exterior
(positive).For example, on a flat terrace; a waterproofing membrane could be laid above
the structural slab and below the finish tiles.
The APP membrane, short for Atactic Polypropylene Membrane, is a special
waterproofing material that is manufactured from Bitumen. They comes’ in rolls. Each
roll measures 10 meters by 1 meter and covers an area of 8.7 m². With proper
workmanship, the APP membrane is a very efficient and durable waterproofing material
used in most constructions. It is a common waterproofing material used on concrete flat
roofs (which are still roofs) or roofs with low pitch. Apart from concrete roofs and low
pitched roofs, other areas of application are concrete gutters, basements and retaining
walls.
Liquid Waterproofing is the formation of an impervious watertight barrier over surfaces
of foundations, roofs, walls and other structural members of building to prevent water
penetrations through these surfaces. Watertight Membranes can be formed by using
materials like cementetious material, bituminous material, liquid polymeric
waterproofing membrane and polyurethane liquid membrane etc. or readymade
membranes like APP, PVC, EPDM, TPU or HDPE membranes.
There are many types of waterproofing materials. Some of the best and most common
include; Polyurethane, Cementetious Coating, EPDM Rubber, Rubberized Asphalt,
Thermoplastic Membrane, Bituminous Membrane, and PVC Waterproofing Membrane.
Liquid waterproofing membrane is available in the form of liquid and is sprayed or
applied by brush or roller to the concrete surface which forms a thick joint free
membrane in contact with air. These liquid applied systems feature coatings have
elongation properties, durability, flexibility, abrasion, chemical resistance providing
successful installation. The liquid waterproofing membrane provides optimized
performance and also most importantly longevity.
