Waterproofing & Insulation Inspection
Before It Is Covered

Waterproofing protects your home from soil moisture, water leaks and roof heat, but it gets covered by backfill, tiles or a protective screed days after it is applied. That is why the Fahison team inspects it on time, before it disappears.

Why Inspect Waterproofing?

Waterproofing defects don't show on the day of work, but years later as damp and leaks.

Protected Foundations

Waterproofing protects concrete and rebar from soil moisture and salts.

No Leaks

Any gap in bathroom or roof waterproofing shows as a leak in the ceiling below.

Less Heat

The right roof foam thickness reduces top-floor heat and the AC bill.

Lower Cost

Fixing waterproofing before it is covered is easier and cheaper than breaking after you move in.

After backfilling or tiling, the waterproofing cannot be seen, and fixing it means breaking.
