Waterproofing

Wallbarn are a well established & respected company that supply waterproofing systems to both the construction industry & to individual customers. We offer a comprehensive range of waterproofing solutions that have been designed to overcome many of the waterproofing problems associated with today’s structures.

Waterproofing products are designed to “prevent” water penetration even under wet conditions such as hydrostatic pressure in the soil after heavy rain storms or spring thaws. Wallbarn's products contain rubber which provides superior waterproofing protection and allows the product to remain flexible even when it dries. This flexibility allows the waterproofing membrane to stretch as the foundation settles and bridge small hairline settlement cracks that can occur in the concrete or block.

Building waterproofing is very important because it keeps a building dry. It also reduces internal humidity, making a building more comfortable to work in and protecting objects inside the building from damage as a result of humidity or water exposure. However, building waterproofing is also important to the integrity of the building itself.
Water damage can be a serious issue in a structure. With water comes mold and a host of other problems which can undermine foundations, make conditions in the building unsafe, and damage property inside the building.

Wooden buildings can suffer rapid decay from water exposure, but water penetration can also damage concrete and other building materials, especially in cold climates where water may freeze and cause cracks. Substandard waterproofing is something that can be a problem year all year round.

Building waterproofing is a process which is designed to prevent water from penetrating a building. Usually extensive waterproofing measures are added to a building at the time of construction, to provide moisture control from the start, and waterproofing may also be done after a building is built, to address problems as they emerge.

Waterproofing is critical, for a number of reasons, and many contractors around the country specialize in building waterproofing, providing maintenance, restoration, and new construction services.

Wallbarn have become known for its high level of technical expertise and we continue to offer free technical advice and guidance from project design stage through to on site support.
