Terrace waterproofing and repair
Terraces are one of the most exposed elements of a home, so they require professional waterproofing to prevent leaks, dampness, lifting of paving and structural damage.
At Bartolomé Bas Pinturas, we carry out comprehensive terrace repair and waterproofing in Jávea, Dénia, Moraira and throughout the Costa Blanca, applying systems that are resistant to water, sunlight and temperature changes.
Why do leaks occur on terraces?
Over time, terraces suffer wear and tear from the sun, rain, temperature changes and daily traffic.
Leaks are usually caused by:
-
Open or damaged joints
-
Poorly executed slopes
-
Old materials without waterproofing capacity
-
Cracks in the paving
-
Micro-cracks due to expansion
-
Poor water drainage
When water finds a way in, it can penetrate lower floors, walls, ceilings or electrical installations, causing increasing damage if action is not taken in time.
How can leaks be fixed?
To permanently eliminate leaks, it is necessary to remove the damaged flooring, clean the surface and apply a professional waterproofing system.
Our process includes:
-
Removing the affected floor or paving
-
Cleaning and removing any traces of moisture
-
Repairing cracks and fissures
-
Applying cementitious or liquid waterproofing layers
-
Reinforcing joints with special meshes
-
Creating the correct slopes towards the drains
-
Laying new flooring if the customer so wishes
The aim is to ensure a fully protected terrace, free of leaks and able to withstand the climate of the Costa Blanca.
