ROOFS AND TERRACES WATERPROOFING
Roofs and terraces are the elements of buildings that need to be continuously checked and also it needs a high maintenance service in order to avoid unnecessary problems.
Waterproofing solutions have a maximum durability, according to the circumstances of each case, and after a few years (between 15 and 30) it is necessary to renovate the insulation.

DIFFERENT TYPE OF HUMIDITIES
One of the consequences of a bad waterproofing installation is the humidity, fungus, condensation, etc. To solve these problems, we have different options:
Capillarity Moisture
This humidity rises up throw the pores and it evaporates to the atmosphere.
Capillarity moisture appears in walls with no insulation and it increases the subsoil moisture. L’aigua provinent de el subsol conté sals dissoltes.
The water coming from the subsoil contains dissolved salts.
At the same time that the water evaporates, the dissolved salts crystallizes, and it settles on the cover in such a way that the cover degrades and the paint comes off.
Moisture from underground leaks
This type of humidity appears in underground walls. This moisture is produced by the fault of drainage or by a lack of waterproofing.
Elevator shafts
If the elevator shafts are flooded with water, they do not pass the inspection and that is why there is a demand of waterproofing the shafts.
Moisture by condensation
