Sikaproof System

WATERPROOFING OF FOUNDATIONS

The SikaProof system is an advanced waterproofing system used to protect foundations and underground spaces from moisture and leaks. It was developed by Sika, a leading provider of chemical solutions for the construction industry. It consists of specially designed polyurethane membranes that are applied to the surfaces of foundations and basement walls. These membranes provide a watertight barrier that prevents moisture penetration, thereby protecting the structure from moisture and related damage.

1. Initially, the surface of the foundations is cleaned and inspected for any defects or imperfections that may cause problems with the waterproofing.

2. Next, a surface preparation material (primer) is applied to improve the adhesion of the SikaProof system to the foundation surface

3. The SikaProof membranes are applied to the surface of the foundations according to the manufacturer's guidelines.

4. The membranes are secured to the surface with special fastening elements and sealed at the contact points between them, as well as around penetrations in the foundation surface, to prevent water leakage.

5. The waterproofing system is checked for any imperfections or leaks, and any final treatments or repairs are carried out as needed.

Advantages of waterproofing with the Sikaproof system:

The SikaProof system provides high reliability in the waterproofing of foundations and underground spaces. Its application ensures an effective barrier against moisture and water ingress.

The installation of the SikaProof system is relatively simple and quick, resulting in savings in time and labor.

The SikaProof system is resistant to mechanical and chemical effects, providing long-term protection for foundations and underground spaces.

The use of the SikaProof system is usually found to be economically beneficial in the long term, as it offers an effective solution with low maintenance costs.

The SikaProof system can be adapted to various surfaces and shapes, making it suitable for a wide range of construction applications
