Waterproofing
Waterproofing is a process used to keep water out of structures to safeguard reinforcement. It’s essential while constructing a building and maintaining structures, since water can cause significant damage if it infiltrates inside the structure. It involves the process of creating a protective barrier on the surfaces of foundations, roofs, walls, and other structural components so as to render building surfaces resistant to water and impermeable to moisture. Waterproofing also enhances durability, helps reduce energy costs, and improves indoor air quality.
