Overview

Bituminous coating waterproofing, also known as asphalt waterproofing, is a cost-effective and highly durable waterproofing method used to protect concrete and metal surfaces from water infiltration, corrosion, and chemical exposure.

This technique is widely applied in basements, underground structures, retaining walls, foundations, and industrial storage areas, where strong water resistance is required. Bituminous coatings form a thick, impermeable layer that effectively blocks moisture, making them highly reliable for long-term waterproofing.

Best for:

✔ Basements & Underground Structures – Prevents water seepage and mold growth.
✔ Retaining Walls & Foundations – Protects against groundwater infiltration and structural damage.
✔ Parking Garages & Tunnels – Ensures long-lasting durability in high-moisture areas.
✔ Metal & Concrete Surfaces – Prevents corrosion and enhances lifespan.
✔ Industrial & Storage Tanks – Provides strong chemical resistance.

How it Works:

1️⃣ Surface Cleaning & Preparation – The area is cleaned to remove dust, dirt, oil, and debris. Any cracks or holes are sealed.
2️⃣ Primer Application – A bitumen-based primer is applied to improve adhesion and enhance waterproofing.
3️⃣ Coating Application – A thick layer of bituminous-based material is applied using a brush, roller, or spray, ensuring complete coverage.
4️⃣ Curing & Layering – The coating is left to cure, forming a waterproof, corrosion-resistant barrier. Additional layers may be added for extra protection.
5️⃣ Final Inspection & Optional Protective Coating – In areas exposed to sunlight, a UV-resistant topcoat may be applied to prevent degradation.

Benefits:

✅ Excellent Water Resistance – Prevents seepage and moisture-related damage.
✅ Cost-Effective for Large Areas – Ideal for commercial and industrial applications.
✅ Highly Adhesive to Concrete & Metal – Provides strong and long-lasting waterproofing.
✅ Resistant to Chemicals & Corrosion – Extends the life of structures by preventing degradation.
✅ Reduces Cracking & Surface Erosion – Protects against thermal expansion and harsh environmental conditions.
✅ Provides Thermal & Noise Insulation – Creates a more stable and comfortable environment.
