Repair work poses the biggest challenge for a waterproofing contractor. In the Northeast, many structures date back a century, have been built on wet, filled land, and have been modified and expanded. Multiple building materials may have been used at different stages of construction, and there are usually several reasons for water entering the building. Previous waterproofing applications may have failed. In fact, as much as 50% of waterproofing repair work involves the removal of failed waterproofing materials and the preparation of the structure to take the new application. Experience is the Key The ability to restore a structure to its original, dry condition goes far beyond the application of a waterproofing material. As part of a complete evaluation and repair project, the consultants at Hydra will: · Gain a thorough understanding of how the structure was built · Determine why the original construction failed to be watertight · Project the response of the various building materials to the waterproofing application · Provide a complete removal of any failed waterproofing materials · Prepare the structure for the new application · Apply the most effective and cost-efficient waterproofing materials available The inability to perform any one of these steps can cause the waterproofing application to fail - not just initially, but years after the invoice is paid. With nearly four decades of success, the experts at Hydra are dedicated to providing watertight repairs that last as long as the concrete is intact.† A Technique for Every Application At Hydra, we specialize in Capillary/Crystalline coating, which has proven to be the most efficient and effective method of waterproofing for the vast majority of applications.
