Sheet Waterproofing

Sheet waterproofing is a widely utilized and highly effective method for protecting various surfaces against water infiltration. Forest Waterproofing excels in sheet waterproofing, offering expertise in torch-on bitumen and PVC membrane applications. With meticulous attention to detail and a commitment to quality, our team ensures durable and reliable waterproofing solutions for a range of structures and areas, including flat roofs, decks, retaining walls, basements, planter boxes, and balconies.

 

Torch-on Bitumen Waterproofing:

Torch-on bitumen waterproofing is a popular choice for both residential and commercial projects due to its exceptional durability and longevity. It involves the application of a modified bitumen membrane using a propane torch to heat and activate the adhesive properties of the material. This creates a seamless, robust, and watertight barrier that effectively prevents water penetration.

Forest Waterproofing’s experienced technicians are skilled in the precise application of torch-on-bitumen membranes. They meticulously prepare the surface, ensuring it is clean, dry, and free of any contaminants that may compromise the adhesion. The bitumen membrane is then carefully rolled out and heated using a torch, allowing it to bond securely to the surface. Our team pays close attention to details such as overlapping seams and edge reinforcements, ensuring complete waterproofing protection.

 

PVC Membrane Waterproofing:

PVC membrane waterproofing is another popular and versatile solution for sheet waterproofing. PVC (polyvinyl chloride) membranes offer excellent resistance to water, chemicals, and UV rays, making them ideal for various applications. Forest Waterproofing’s expertise in PVC membrane applications ensures reliable and long-lasting protection for a range of surfaces.

Our skilled technicians meticulously install PVC membranes, starting with thorough surface preparation to ensure optimal adhesion. The PVC membrane is applied using adhesives or hot air welding, depending on the specific project requirements. The seams are carefully sealed to create a continuous, watertight barrier. With Forest Waterproofing’s attention to detail and expertise, PVC membrane waterproofing provides excellent protection against water intrusion, even in demanding environments.
