Terrace and Balcony Waterproofing
Terrace and Balcony Waterproofing
Waterproofing your terrace and balcony is essential to protect your property from water damage and maintain the long-term durability of your building. Satish Building Solutions specializes in professional terrace and balcony waterproofing solutions tailored for Indian weather conditions.
Why Waterproofing Your Terrace is Important
Terraces and balconies are constantly exposed to rain, sunlight, and temperature changes. Without proper waterproofing, these areas can develop cracks, water seepage, and mildew growth, which can weaken your structure and reduce the aesthetics and safety of your property.
Waterproofing helps in:
- Preventing leakage and dampness
- Protecting structural elements
- Extending the lifespan of your terrace or balcony
Reducing maintenance and repair costs
Common Causes of Water Seepage in Terraces and Balconies
- Cracks and Gaps
Small cracks in the floor or joints can allow rainwater to seep through, causing long-term structural damage. - Improper Drainage
If water does not drain properly from the surface, it may accumulate and start penetrating the substrate. - Poor-Quality Construction Materials
Use of substandard materials or incorrect application can lead to early damage and leakage. - Temperature Fluctuations
Continuous expansion and contraction due to weather changes can cause surface deterioration over time.
Waterproofing Solutions We Offer
At Satish Building Solutions, we offer both traditional and modern waterproofing methods for terraces and balconies:
Traditional Waterproofing Methods
- Brickbat Coba Method
Laying bricks over a waterproof layer and filling the gaps with mortar for slope correction and insulation. Suitable for older buildings but adds weight to the structure. - Lime Terracing
Using lime and natural materials to create a waterproof layer. Eco-friendly but may require frequent maintenance. - Mud Phuska Method
An economical option using clay and natural ingredients, best suited for hot regions. Not recommended for modern structures due to limited durability.
Modern Waterproofing Methods
- Bituminous Membrane Waterproofing
A flexible, heat-applied bitumen layer that acts as a strong barrier against water. Ideal for exposed rooftops but may degrade under UV rays over time. - Liquid Membrane Waterproofing
Easy to apply and forms a seamless layer. Highly durable and suitable for all surface types including tiles and concrete. - Acrylic Coatings
These are UV-resistant, flexible, and mildew-proof coatings that come in different colours and offer both protection and aesthetic value.
We use only high-quality products like Dr. Fixit, Sika, and Asian Paints SmartCare, ensuring long-term performance.
