FAQs Balcony Waterproofing
How long does the waterproofing process usually take?
It usually takes 2 to 5 days, depending on the project’s size and complexity. This includes surface prep, membrane application, sealing, and curing time to ensure a solid, leak-proof finish.
Can waterproof membranes be applied over existing tiles?
Generally, old tiles are removed first to ensure the membrane sticks well. Tiles can trap moisture and cause adhesion problems, so removing them creates a better surface for waterproofing.
Will waterproofing stop all leaks completely?
When done correctly and maintained regularly, waterproofing effectively stops leaks. Proper prep and quality materials create a strong barrier against water intrusion.
Is maintenance needed after waterproofing?
Yes, regular checks and cleaning help keep the membrane in good shape. Fixing small issues early prevents leaks and extends the life of the waterproofing.
Is waterproofing covered by insurance?
Coverage depends on your policy. Some insurers cover damage from sudden events but usually not routine waterproofing. Check with your provider for details.
