As a building owner for any commercial property from a retail outlet to an office building or a warehouse to a hotel, you know that maintaining the exterior of the property is important. Commercial waterproofing of your exterior surface areas is not only going to help keep your building looking great, but it has other benefits as well.
The key is to find a commercial waterproofing material that can stand up to the elements as well as the demands of the area it is used one. Top commercial quality waterproofing applications are resistant to cold and heat, stand up to rain, snow and ice and even resists impact and scratching, all very important considerations.
Protecting Your Investment
Adding commercial waterproofing, which is typically a urethane flooring system, is a great way to protect your initial investment in your concrete or other flooring or paved surfaces. Without this surfacing you can expect paint to wear and rub, eventually flaking and peeling, especially in high traffic areas of the floor.
The waterproofing material is perfect for outdoor locations such as patios, balconies and even sidewalks and parking areas. It is resistant to staining and will also protect the surfaces from damage due to moisture and high and low temperatures. Since the commercial waterproofing coating will fill in cracks and minor imperfections, it won’t expand or contract with temperature extremes.
Interior Protection
In any type of warehouse, commercial or industrial manufacturing area, commercial kitchen, or in any retail or commercial venue, using commercial waterproofing on the floors is also the ideal option. This is a common flooring for cleanrooms and labs where a complete seal to prevent dust, bacteria, and other contaminants is a priority.
With options to create patterns, match colors and provide a non-slip or skid proof flooring the small investment in the product is offset by the additional life you will get out of the floor. In addition, with the added safety features there is a considerable decrease in the risk of slip and falls, something any commercial property owner needs to consider.
By applying commercial waterproofing, you can extend the life of the flooring for both interior and exterior areas. You also have the option to use one color all the way through your property or choose different colors for different locations, adding to the look and appeal of the building.
