Building healthy Societies with Dr Fixit Waterproofing Expert

Building healthy Societies with Dr. Fixit Waterproofing Expert.

Problems of cracks, damp walls, dripping ceilings, and mold formation in houses are not unheard of. Monsoon comes with many challenges – the last thing you want is to add to the problems monsoon brings along. The humidity level rises adding to water seepage problems through walls and causing further leakages. This gets worse if our building committees ignore important leakage issues that need immediate attention.

Why is waterproofing important?

Waterproofing is one of the most critical yet neglected subjects because the common man is not exposed to concrete technology. Water infiltration causes major problems to a structure. Water damages a building first cosmetically then structurally. It is important to realize that by the time a stain shows up on the interior of your building most likely irreversible damage has been caused to the exterior. Water-soaked roof insulation will never dry out. Water damage can be compared to fire as a cause of building decay and deterioration.

Trapped moisture in insulation can also decay a roof deck and may cause the roof to fall. Water entering walls will rust steel relieving angles and carrying beams which support the structure. Moisture penetrating reinforced concrete structures carry chloride ions which will rust reinforcing bars causing them to expand in size resulting in spalling of concrete. As one begins to understand the mechanics of water infiltration, one begins to understand the importance of keeping a structure watertight.
