Waterproof Installation in Connecticut
In many modern homes, the roof is used not only as a roof but also as a full-fledged recreation area. But for such a surface to serve for a long time and not cause problems with leaks, a special coating is needed that can withstand moisture and mechanical stress.
This is exactly the task we faced at the facility in Connecticut. The main requirement is tightness and a flat surface without seams. To implement such a solution, we chose a liquid waterproofing system, which creates a monolithic seamless layer after application. This allows us to protect the roof from moisture, temperature changes and mechanical damage, while maintaining its attractive appearance.
Stages of Work
The project was large-scale and required a clear sequence of actions:
Preparation of the substrate. We started by laying new plywood over the entire roof area. The material was fixed with due regard for future loads.
Puttying and sanding. To create a perfectly flat base, we used special putty compounds. After that, the surface was sanded and carefully checked to avoid even small differences.
Sealing the joints. We paid special attention to grouting the joints and transitions. This ensures a tight fit of the vinyl coating and eliminates the possibility of leaks in the future.
Installation of the vinyl membrane. The key stage was gluing a special waterproof vinyl membrane. The work was performed by four hands to ensure accurate installation without air pockets and distortions.
Final works. We processed the corners and abutments, closed all the transitions, and then the surface acquired a complete look. The roof was ready to be furnished and used as a terrace.
Features of the Materials Used
Vinyl flooring for terraces and roofs has several key advantages:
- Water resistance: the material creates a continuous layer that is impervious to moisture.
- Resistance to loads: the surface can be used as a terrace or a resting place.
- Easy maintenance: the coating is easy to clean and keep clean.
- Durability in coastal areas: even in conditions of high humidity near water bodies, the membrane retains its properties.
Final Result
The flat vinyl-coated surface is completely protected from moisture and is ready to be used as a recreation area. The customer received not just a roof, but an additional functional space that can be equipped with furniture, an umbrella, or even a small summer kitchen.
