Waterproofing With Hot Mop Tar

A waterproof barrier is required before pouring a new concrete deck. Without a waterproof membrane, water damage and dry rot will occur. Find a good hot mop contractor in you area.
When a concrete deck fails, it is because the waterproof barrier has failed to hold back the water. Do not cut corner on this phase of the project.

    I recently stumbled across a contractor that was using what I thought was poor technique when constructing several concrete decks for an area nursing home. Your post has prompted me to do a bit more digging, since the site belonged to a client.

    This seems to be very full proof plan as it definitely will stop the water seepage.

    As you know, water seepage can be a problem to any structure. The water proof membrane is the key to controling water damage and dry rot. Regular maintenance of the property will reduce any future disasters.

    Thanks for the comment!
