This is a question that many people have been wondered.
“Applying the new waterproofing system over the old system would enforce the existing waterproofing system, which includes patching up spots that exhibit wear and tear?”
In actuality, it can be more complicated than wear and tear and there might be hidden waterproofing issues from the old system.
The reason of not apply new waterproofing system over the existing system?
We would not recommend waterproofing over existing waterproofing, even though it is technically possible.
Certain waterproofing systems may comprise more than one type of waterproofing membrane, making them more complex than others. Sometimes it is difficult the access the condition of the existing waterproofing system that caused by wear and tear.
What are the ways to remove the old waterproofing system?
- Application of chemical
- Removing the waterproofing membrane using a scraper
Typically, we advise hiring experts to remove the membranes in order to prevent any damage to the substrate or screeds, which could exacerbate the condition.
When to invest in a new waterproofing membrane system?
By examining the waterproofing membrane’s surface, you can determine when it has failed. The most common indicators to watch out for include areas that are uneven and distorted, uneven surfaces that are not perfectly level, leaks of water, or dampness from water below the surfaces of the waterproofing membrane.
