Waterproofing

Waterproofing is one of the most critical applications for any surface. This is true for roof decks, bathrooms, showers, pools and many other applications. Semco’s integral waterproofing system has been tested under extreme conditions to be able to withstand water pressure even while being physically stretched. These properties allow the underlying performance to work while the surfaces aesthetic beauty is maintained.

Interior & Exterior Basement Waterproofing

The most common type of interior waterproofing is to use a sealant. Sealants are available in both liquid and paint form, and they can be applied to concrete, masonry, and wood. Sealants work by filling in the tiny cracks and pores in the basement walls and floors, making it more difficult for water to penetrate. Exterior waterproofing is a more complex process than interior waterproofing. Exterior waterproofing involves installing a drainage system around the foundation of the home. The drainage system consists of a series of pipes that collect water from the ground around the foundation and divert it away from the home.

Its major goal is to provide a barrier coat that prevents water from seeping through the wall and keeping the area dry.
