Humidity of walls and facades 1. Capillary rise It is the slow rise of underground water in the walls by capillarity. There is excessive ambient humidity and deterioration of the materials at the bottom of the walls. 2. Fungus Dry rot is a lignivorous fungus that feeds by degrading wood, then develops in damp rooms. Its development depends on the humidity of the wood, the temperature of the room and the light. 3. Infiltration in the basement and cellar The causes are various, such as soil humidity, rainfall, cracks in the walls, damaged wall, poor drainage, capillarity, etc. 4. Condensation & Molds Condensation settles on the coldest places in the room and causes mold on the walls and fogging of the windows, eventually causing the deterioration of paintwork, plastering and wallpaper. 5. Conclusion In your home, humidity is a health hazard because it promotes the development of allergies and chronic diseases in children (asthma). In the event that the structure of the walls has become dangerous, exceptional curative measures must be applied.

Solutions to

waterproofing

problems

1. Diagnosis of watertightness & humidity Our experts will carry out a technical inspection to assess the deterioration of your waterproofing and find out the causes of your concerns and propose solutions. You may have various defects that cause the deterioration of the waterproofing such as: micro-cracks, blisters, defective seals, detachment of the waterproofing upstand, defect or absence of drainage, defect of evacuation, detachment of the waterproofing, poor drainage slope, faulty execution, property damage by water infiltration, damage caused by rising damp, mould, etc. 2. Waterproofing flat roofs Control and maintenance, roof renovation, removal and repair of all the basic structures, the load-bearing element, the waterproofing support, the waterproofing coating and the waterproofing protection for flat roofs. 3. Waterproofing of balconies and terraces We create a waterproofing membrane on the balcony or terrace before laying the tiles. 4. Waterproofing of car parks Repair of the parking lot waterproofing, removal of the old waterproofing and installation of new waterproofing on the traffic underlayment such as tar or directly on the concrete slab. 5. Casing The groundwater with high pressure causes water infiltration in your walls or buried basins, water leaks or cracks in the walls with bad odors. Infiltration, often by capillarity, must be stopped from the inside when the outside is inaccessible by the casing method. 6. Peripheral drainage A construction on a permeable ground of a drainage network on the perimeter of the building to eliminate stagnant water after heavy rains. French drain. 7. Injection drying Cut off capillary rise by creating a watertight barrier by injecting water-repellent resins into the entire thickness of the walls. 8. Water repellent facades Application of a water-repellent liquid on the facade of the building. Moisture can no longer enter the walls and dirt will stick to the surface less quickly. 9. Venting Tailor-made ventilation for air renewal and which removes any phenomenon of condensation and mold. 10. Study of waterproofing projects Projects with in-depth study in the field of waterproofing, budgeting, prescription of your new project or for the repair of your roof.
