There is a simple way of bitumen waterproofing of all underground structures. This is cold and hot waterproofing. For cold waterproofing, in addition to bitumen, ready -made waterproofing mixtures and mastics, created on a cement basis that are produced in a ready -made form. These are waterproofing mastics from the Aquascrine, Hardskrin and Glims series for waterproofing the foundation and for sealing in foundations or in brick or concrete walls.
All these cold mixtures have high adhesion to different building materials. Bitumen -based waterproofing is unpretentious for use. Bitumen mastic can even be applied to a not very wet surface. With hot waterproofing, waterproofing materials based on bitumen are heated to a hot state and applied to the prepared surface. By the way, now the options are being traded every day, prices are usually changing every day.
There are several types of bitumen mastic for hot application. These are waterproofing mastics and mixtures of waterproofing rolled materials.
Basically, bitumen waterproofing is used by hot method in places of water pressure or high moisture. When using roller waterproofing, the surface is prepared for applying waterproofing panels. For waterproofing surfaces, rolled waterproofing with the adhesive base of the canvas is made with a hot method. The gluing of the paintings on the surface is carried out by heating the adhesive side of the canvas with the flame of the burner. The molten layer of mastic during melting turns into adhesive mastic, which is glued to any surface when it cools.
