Waterproofing corners in a building is very important as it prevents moisture and water from penetrating through joints and corners of structures. Various materials and methods can be used to waterproof corners, depending on the specific conditions and requirements of the project. Below we will talk about several common methods of waterproofing corners.
Waterproofing tapes
Waterproofing tape, such as asphalt tape, or elastomeric tape with polyester mesh, or another type of specialized sealing tape, can be installed in corners before applying finishing materials.
These tapes provide reliable corner sealing and prevent moisture penetration.
Waterproofing mastics
Waterproofing mastics, such as bitumen mastics or polymer mastics, can be applied in corners using a brush or trowel.
After drying, mastics create an impenetrable barrier against water.
Waterproofing corners
Waterproofing corners made of plastic, metal and other materials can be attached to corners to enhance sealing and protection against moisture. For example, external and internal corners made of synthetic rubber and reinforcing mesh are one of the best solutions for waterproofing corners today.
Sealants
Depending on the surface and specific conditions, corners can also be sealed using sealants. For example, silicone caulk can be used to fill corner joints.
Waterproofing membranes
Waterproofing membranes, such as rolled bitumen membranes or specialized polymer membranes, can be applied to the surface of the corners and then glued or welded together.
It is important to consider that the choice of method and materials for waterproofing corners must be consistent with the type of surface, operating conditions and local building standards. To ensure reliable waterproofing, it is recommended to consult with construction and waterproofing professionals.
