Mold growth, wood rot, and corrosion are all common issues in structures where waterproofing techniques were not adequately implemented. That’s why at Darat, we recognize the importance of details when conducting critical tasks. We ensure that our team of experts leaves no crack or crevice unrepaired with our waterproofing and spraying techniques.
The process involves injecting a waterproof material into cracks and voids present in concrete or masonry walls. It is suitable for underground structures such as basements. The injection material fundamentally depends on the purpose of waterproofing and the type of material it’s being applied to.
Typically, the highest quality of polyurethane foam, epoxy, or cementitious grout is used. These materials act as ideal insulators for foundations and retaining walls against water intrusion and corrosion to extend the service life of your structure.
Sealing cracks and crevices in concrete walls can be efficiently achieved with polyurethane foam, while epoxy is more fitting to masonry. Cementitious grout is used for voids in concrete structures that are larger in size compared to cracks and crevices. We understand that the process of waterproofing has numerous variables and can be intricate, which is why our role at Darat is to assess the damage and optimize a suitable solution for you
Similar to waterproofing injection, waterproofing spraying is a process that involves applying an insulating layer to a surface through a sprayer. This technique is most effective for above-grade structures such as walls and roofs. The waterproofing layer depends on the type of structure and the severity of the damage. Typically, liquid rubber or elastomeric coating is used since these materials are optimal in preventing water intrusion and protecting the structure against harsh environments.
