A roof in any construction is its first line of defence. It is the first point of contact for external elements. Due to constant exposure to heat and humidity, cracks tend to develop in them over time.

There are multiple reasons like rising dampness from high ground water table, cracks through which rain water seeps inside, seepage from adjoining leaking walls of bathroom and kitchen.

This treated wall can be plastered with waterproof leveling plaster to remove the undulations and give a smooth finish.
Your terrace or roof is the most externally exposed area which faces harsh weather conditions. This includes not only heavy rains but also scorching summers and shivering winters. Such climatic changes usually lead to thermal expansions in the ceiling of your home and may cause water seepage. Surface weakened over time ultimately results in more damage. This is why you need to apply waterproofing solutions over a certain period.
You need to clean drain outlets and pipes on time, coming from the terrace. Besides, they also need a proper slope, at least 1:100. You can use a mixture of Dr. Fixit Pidicrete URP and mortar to give it an appropriate and recommended slope. Furthermore, two coats of UV resistant Dr. Fixit Newcoat Ezee can be used for roof waterproofing.

One of the worst problems I faced after the construction of my new home was leakage in one of the bedrooms. I live in a bungalow at Vasai east, and I failed to waterproof my house during the construction phase. While my contractor was unable to warn me about the consequences of not waterproofing my home, my neighbour asked me to get it done as soon as possible, and not wait any longer. So I got in touch with Dr.Fixit waterproofing professionals as I had heard that their products are widely used, and they suggested that I use Dr.Fixit Roofseal for my terrace and Dr.Fixit Raincoat for external walls.I was impressed with the service provided by their nearby dealer and I hope that I don’t face any leakage in the future.
It’s been some years since I opted for Dr.Fixit waterproofing solutions as there was an ongoing leakage issue.I was experiencing this issue with my terrace, as the cracks formed resulted to huge leakage problem affecting my home interiors.My contractor chose to use some waterproofing products to see if the leakage continued. However, it stopped for some time and then continued again.Then I got in touch with Dr. Fixit waterproofing solutions and they suggested I use one of their waterproofing products called Dr. Fixit Newcoat. Since then, my terrace has not given us any problems whatsoever.I hope this problem doesn’t come up again.
Awesome services - My House was waterproofed 3 years back & still I don't have any issues. Cost-effective products.
