Improve Building Waterproofing with Scrap’Air 55: The Solution for Effective Weatherproofing

When it comes to protecting your buildings from the elements, waterproofing is a crucial consideration. Rain, wind, and humidity can all damage structures and compromise their integrity. That's where waterproofing comes in, a technique aimed at preventing such damage by preventing water stagnation and facilitating its drainage.

What is Waterproofing and How Does It Work?

The waterproofing process involves the application of multiple layers of waterproof materials, known as a waterproofing membrane, directly onto the building. This membrane typically consists of adhered waterproof membranes with a bituminous coating, ensuring reliable protection against water infiltration.

The Challenge of Renovation: Removing Old Waterproof Membranes

When it comes to renovating terraces, balconies, rooftop terraces, or roofs, one of the crucial steps is removing the old waterproofing layers. This task can be particularly difficult and tedious, requiring specialized tools to ensure efficient and safe work.
