Do you believe waterproofing and damp-proofing are not important?

Think again! 

Water is essential for life. It is also an element that can cause significant damage to your home or belongings if it is not used.

Roof waterproofing is not something that many people know about or are aware of. It is essential if you want your home to be strong and water damage minimal.

Mould development is one of the effects of water damage. Mould is a microscopic organism often found in damp places. Its primary function is to break down organic matter. Mould can have a mildew smell and may also contain black, green, brown, or grey spores.

Mould growth can be dangerous and can cause serious health problems. The existence of mold may not affect you if you are healthy and fit. People who are more sensitive to allergies or have health conditions such as bronchial asthma, are most at risk.

Inhalation of mould spores is the most common way to be exposed. Mould direct exposure can cause irritations such as sinus blockage, frustrations, and rashes.

You also risk your safety and well-being. Your roof’s wooden roof covering trusses will eventually rot and become unusable due to water intrusion. Roof repairs can be costly, and roof replacements are even more expensive.

Roof waterproofing can prevent all this. Waterproofing refers to the process of waterproofing your roof or framework so that water cannot penetrate. Under certain conditions, your roof will also be resistant to water damage.

Waterproofing is one of the most important things you can do for your home. Unfortunately, waterproofing is often overlooked. Water damage and leaks can cause severe architectural damage to your building.
