Waterproofing Balconies and walkways
Balconies and walkways are often exposed to the destructive forces of the elements ­ rain, sunlight and freezing conditions. Additionally foot traffic, plant growth and the corrosive effects of road salt transferred by pedestrians make a hostile environment for the substrate which is often reinforced concrete.

Liquid waterproofing systems are suitable for the protection of the substrate, providing a well adhered slip and wear resistant barrier to protect the structure.

Liquid systems can be used on the most complex of details, which are often found, for example, around handrail supports, thresholds, rainwater outlets and downspouts. These hard wearing, textured systems may be fleece or structurally reinforced.

The majority of balcony and walkway systems offer the following benefits:
  • Cost effective, long life waterproofing
  • Easy to apply with minimal disruption to building occupants
  • Fire and impact resistance
  • Hard wearing, decorative, skid resistant finishes
  • Tough and UV resistant with excellent colour stability
  • Capable of bridging cracks and joints
  • Easy to clean
