Invest Wisely: Building Waterproofing Protects Investment

Failing to waterproof your building can have massive impacts – both on its structural integrity and on your wallet. To avoid costly damage and to protect your investment, preventative waterproofing is the way to go. After all, would you rather do a complete roof replacement or opt for a longer-term solution? Read through the following benefits and then let us know!

  1. Low maintenance

Property is a big investment, and it can also be costly to maintain. A waterproof coating can ease the time, cost, and effort of maintenance and repair. When maintenance and repair are necessary, it’s also typically faster and easier than it would be because the waterproofing has prevented any major damage.

  1. Longevity

Waterproofing seeks to extend the longevity of your building and reduce the risk of serious damage. When you add an additional layer of protection, you decrease the likelihood that your building will be impacted by rain, snow, ice, wind or any other element. Since waterproofing can last up to ten years, you’ll extend the lifetime of your existing roof by adding this feature.

  1. Cost savings

Not only does waterproofing your building help you avoid costly damage, but it also helps reduce the standard wear and tear that your roof would get. This means that acting preemptively can help you extend the life of your existing roof. Your money will go farther because of this investment and repairs won’t be required as frequently.

  1. Energy efficiency

Waterproofing allows your building to reflect both heat and sunlight, which means you’ll save on heating, ventilation, and air conditioning. You can look forward to long-term energy savings just by waterproofing your building (especially the roof!).

  1. Health hazard prevention

Outside of cost savings and longevity, water damage can have a very real impact on buildings. Water damage can cause mold and mildew to grow, which often leads to health hazards. Waterproofing your building prevents the prospect of this issue altogether because it seals your building from water leakage. As a result, not only does it prevent water damage and potential health hazards, but it also reduces the humidity levels in your building which can cause mold growth. Your building will not only have a more comfortable climate but also be protected from any health issues.
