Improve Building Waterproofing With Scrap’Air 55

Protecting buildings from the elements is essential, and waterproofing plays a pivotal role in safeguarding structures from rain, wind, and humidity damage. By preventing water stagnation and facilitating drainage, waterproofing ensures the integrity and longevity of buildings.

Understanding Waterproofing: How It Works

Waterproofing involves applying multiple layers of specialized materials, forming a waterproof membrane directly on the building surface. Typically consisting of adhered membranes with a bituminous coating, this membrane effectively shields against water infiltration.

The Challenge of Renovation: Removing Old Waterproof Membranes

During the renovation of terraces, balconies, rooftop terraces, or roofs, removing old waterproofing layers is a critical step. This task demands specialized tools to efficiently and safely clear the area for new applications.
