Building & Commercial Waterproofing Services

A trustworthy building and commercial waterproofing services contractor can provide a water-resistant barrier within your business premises to prevent the inconvenience and loss of trade associated with water damage while protecting your employees and customers from health and safety problems.

Unresolved water intrusion issues can lead to the growth of health-threatening fungi, including mould and mildew, and damage the fixtures, fittings, and furniture throughout your trading premises by rotting wood and decaying metal.

If allowed to continue, water infiltration can even attack the very fabric of your building, by degrading concrete to such an extent that serious structural damage is possible.

It’s important to be vigilant for signs of water seepage by regularly checking your building to spot any potential water infiltration issues. If you ignore a leak because it appears a minor problem, one thing is certain: it’ll only get worse.

If you detect any water stains, cracks in concrete, standing water, or condensation, it’s likely your waterproofing system has broken down through gradual wear and tear or has been damaged in some other way.

In cases like this, you need to seek advice from a dependable commercial waterproofing company – like Revo-seal – immediately.

Revo-seal’s building waterproofing services

The source of water penetration in a building may be obvious: a leaking window or roof, for instance. However, some water infiltration issues can be hidden from view – defective waterproofing in walls and ceilings or excessive moisture affecting the property’s foundations.

One sign that you may be facing water intrusion problems is if the landscaping around your building slopes towards the foundation wall.

Further, problems on the outside are not the only threat to your building’s foundations: water can leak from the top of the property right down to the foundations. When water seepage such as this is detected, you can rely on the commercial roof leak repair services of Revo-seal.

Nevertheless, there’re certain measures you can take to help prevent water infiltration into your building, and they include:

• Checking downspouts and gutters to make sure they’re free from debris build-up.
• Inspecting windows, doors, and walls for indications of water damage.
• Ensuring you don’t have any leaking pipes.

Building basements

Exploiting the potential of the basement in a commercial building can be a huge benefit for a business. A functional working space in a basement will increase the value of the property and is much more cost-effective than renting, buying, or building a new space.

However, you must first ensure that your basement is safeguarded against water penetration. Without adequate waterproofing, you won’t even be able to use the basement for storage due to the threat of water damage and the effects of damp.

The commercial waterproofing services of Revo-seal

You’re aware of the necessity to protect your own home from water infiltration. With commercial building waterproofing, there’s a need for even greater vigilance.

By doing so, you can then provide a safe, comfortable environment for your staff and customers – as no one wants to work in or visit commercial premises with a musty, dank atmosphere, or wet, slippery floors.

Hospitality and retail

Being in the hospitality and retail industry, your property generates a constant flow of visitors, as in the case of hotels, bars, restaurants, cafes, coffee shops, and sports facilities such as gyms and health spas.

Other than the health and safety of employees and customers being a major consideration, a real estate affected by waterproofing issues will have a bearing on your business’ branding and keep customers away.

Commercial kitchens

If your business involves food preparation, commercial kitchen waterproofing of a high quality will go a long way in helping to keep this area free from health hazards, including potentially toxic fungi and insect infestation.

Waterproofing a commercial kitchen floor will also reduce the possibility of accidents due to slippery surfaces.

Public toilets and showers

Waterproofing commercial wet areas, such as toilets and showers that are open to the public, is another important health and safety factor.

Professionally-installed commercial shower waterproofing will not only prevent leaks and puddles, it’ll also eliminate the danger of excessive moisture, which can result in the growth of fungi such as mildew and mould.
