We are professional waterproofing contractors in Kolkata. We often wonder why people hesitate to spend money and time waterproofing the home. Want to explain the benefits of waterproofing the valuable property, your dream home with all its necessary types and materials used. The water seepage in homes is unavoidable and leads to immediate effects like the dampness/puffiness on the walls, peeling of paint, and the growth of molds. According to the reports, Waterproofing costs nearly 1% of home buying cost, but if ignored, it is responsible for almost 90% of the Repair cost. Waterproofing involves providing the physical barrier of waterproof material between the floor and walls or between the roof and walls, to prevent the penetration of water and the moisture build-up to the structure of the home. Waterproofing not only increases the property value but reduces maintenance costs, prevents mold and mildew, provides a healthy environment, and reduces energy costs. It can be done at the time of Construction when there are any visible cracks on the roof/ Terrace, Old or damaged plastered walls, or before repainting the home.
