Ask which materials will be used and why. Request the product brand and technical data sheet. Confirm the warranty period in writing. Ask how many layers will be applied and the expected drying time. Clarify whether the quote includes surface preparation and cleanup after the job.
Interior methods include sealants, epoxy injections, and waterproof coatings applied inside the room. Exterior work uses membranes, drainage boards, and protective coatings on the outside of the structure. Exterior solutions are usually more durable because they block water before it enters the wall.
Pricing depends on area size, access difficulty, material type, and how much preparation the surface needs. Interior sealants may cost less per square meter than full exterior excavation jobs. Labor, disposal of excavated soil, and the number of coats required all change the final price. Always compare written quotes covering the same scope of work and materials.
Foundation walls often leak at the joint between wall and floor. The fix usually involves exterior excavation down to the footing, cleaning the concrete, applying primer and bituminous membrane, then installing a French drain with gravel and a perforated pipe. The drain must slope 1 percent toward a sump pump or storm drain to carry water away.
Look for dark stains on ceilings, peeling paint near skirting boards, white salt marks on walls, a musty smell in closed rooms, damp carpets, and water pooling in the basement after rain. Cracks wider than 2 mm in external walls also let moisture in. If any of these show up, schedule an inspection before the damage spreads further.
Price depends on area size, product type, and surface condition. Removing old layers adds labor cost. Accessibility matters: higher floors or tight basements cost more. Quality membranes and certified labor cost more but last longer. Always compare written quotes that list materials, area, and warranty.
Basements face constant pressure from groundwater. Common solutions include exterior bituminous coating, dimpled drainage membranes, and interior sump pumps. Cracks wider than 3 mm usually need injection repair. Good exterior drainage with clean gutters and downspouts reduces hydrostatic pressure.
Look for damp patches, peeling paint, white salt deposits, or a musty smell. Brown stains on ceilings often point to a roof or upper-floor leak. Hairline cracks in basement walls let water seep in during rain. Bubbling wallpaper and swollen skirting boards are also warning signs to act on.
Common failures come from poor surface preparation, skipping primer, or applying membrane on a wet slab. Joints that are not overlapped correctly also leak within months. Some contractors use thin paint instead of real membrane, which peels after 1 or 2 seasons. Lack of drainage behind retaining walls causes water to build up and push through the coating.
Showers and bathroom floors need a waterproof layer under the tiles. Professionals apply liquid membrane in 2 or 3 coats, letting each one cure for 4 to 6 hours. Corners get reinforcing fabric tape. Coverage should reach 20 cm above the showerhead. This stops water reaching the slab and prevents damage to the ceiling of the room below.
