Roof Waterproofing Procedure – Complete Step-by-Step Guide by Phoenix Chemicals
Why Roof Waterproofing is Essential
In Pakistan, heavy monsoon rains and extreme weather conditions often cause roof leakage and seepage problems. Without proper waterproofing, water seeps into walls and ceilings, damaging the structure and creating health risks such as mold growth.
At Phoenix Chemicals, we provide professional roof waterproofing services to ensure your home remains safe, dry, and leak-free. Our Roof Waterproofing Procedure follows industry standards for long-lasting results.
Step-by-Step Roof Waterproofing Procedure
1. Roof Inspection & Cleaning
Our experts start with a detailed inspection of the roof surface, identifying cracks, joints, and weak spots. We clean the entire area to remove dust, debris, and old coatings, ensuring a smooth surface for the next steps.
2. Crack Filling & Surface Preparation
All visible cracks and gaps are sealed with high-quality crack fillers to prevent water penetration. Surface leveling ensures the waterproofing material adheres properly.
3. Application of Waterproofing Coating
Multiple layers of cementitious or bitumen-based waterproofing coatings are applied. This creates a durable water-resistant barrier that protects the roof during heavy rainfall.
4. Installation of Waterproof Membrane (Optional)
For extra durability, we install fiber mesh or polymer sheets on top of the coating. This provides additional strength and prevents future cracks.
5. Final Protective Layer & Curing
A final coat is applied for long-term protection. The roof is left to cure properly before it’s ready to handle rain and harsh weather.
