Waterproofing is the process of making a structure or surface resistant to the ingress of water or moisture, thereby protecting structural elements and interior spaces from damage caused by water penetration. This is a critical component in modern construction to ensure the durability, integrity, and longevity of buildings and infrastructure.
Waterproofing systems are applied to roofs, basements, podiums, wet areas, retaining walls, water tanks, and foundations, using various materials and methods depending on site conditions and performance requirements.
