Until now, waterproofing has been done with typical systems, like brickbat coba, lime terracing and the ‘Mud Fuska.’ Sometimes, tarfelt and bitumen are also used. All these methods are woefully inadequate, but also have certain disadvantages that can cause damage to the structure of the building. Most of these systems put increased load on the slab, they are more for insulation and do not offer leak-proof or water-tight solutions. As they age, breaking them and re-doing the same system is risky for the slab; cracks caused in the slab increase the problem of leakage. Also the expertise levels are not as good as in the olden days. The elements and foot traffic take their toll on the terrace surface.
Dr. Fixit Newcoat is ideal for roof waterproofing that is old and needs to be redone. It is a high performance, heavy-duty weightless waterproofing system that can be applied over the existing waterproofing system, without even breaking it. It comes in three different light colors to ensure the customer gets all the three coatings. Dr. Fixit Newcoat does not require any additional protective system over it and is ideal for flat RCC roofs, even roofs subject to heavy foot traffic. Repairs on the existing terrace surface and the parapets, etc. must be done prior to the coating, as Dr. Fixit Newcoat is the final system, to give a finish.
