Everything Needs Waterproofing & Vapor Barriers

Over the past 20 years I have spent my time maintaining homes and repairing homes that have sustained water damage.  Most construction materials need some type of waterproofing system. During my time in the construction and home repair industry, I have coated and put waterproofing materials on just about everything, including shingle roofs, gutters and down spouts, siding, foundation walls, basements, decks, driveways and parking lots, sidewalks, window seals, vapor barriers on the ceilings and walls, sheet rock, floors, tubs and tub surrounds, tile and grout, trim work and doors, and wood furniture.  I have also installed yard water drainage systems, french drains, and a variety of others that you would never even consider needing a water tight seal.  In this blog I will be sharing what I know about all aspects of waterproofing. I will cover new construction practices, remodeling, maintenance, and repair issues. I will be reviewing different types of coatings available on the market and showing you which types work best for a variety of applications. I will help you learn how to waterproof everything in, on, and around your home and office.

    I have to agree with you that every homeowner needs a waterproofing system in his/her home - not just in their roof but also in every part of their house, including the gutters and sidings. With this, homeowners will have a reliable protection from water leaks, and they can avoid damage to their property’s structure and value. Anyway, I read and watched your other posts with embedded videos. I find the task risky, but maybe if I get used to it, it’ll be easy. :)

      Good stuff really, takes a couple of coats but really helps with the granule wear down. Give it a go. And thanks for the comment.
