What Types of Liquid Applied Waterproofing Are Available?
Several types of liquid applied waterproofing are available, each offering distinct benefits for car park decks and various property needs. Our selection includes materials designed to meet both environmental and functional demands:
Polyurethane: Known for its flexibility and ability to bridge cracks, making it ideal for surfaces that experience regular movement or thermal expansion.
Polyurea: Offers rapid curing times and excellent abrasion resistance, suitable for high-traffic areas where durability is crucial. Its quick setting means minimal downtime during application.
PMMA (Polymethyl Methacrylate): Allows quick installation and return to service, typically within hours. It performs well in cold temperatures, ensuring all-year usability.
Acrylics: UV stable and suitable for exposed areas requiring aesthetic considerations, such as rooftop car parks that may require an appealing finish alongside waterproof protection.
Each type offers unique advantages regarding environmental resistance, application efficiency, and visual finish, allowing us to recommend the most appropriate solution for your specific requirements. Contact us to discuss which option best suits your project.
What Are the Benefits of Liquid Applied Waterproofing?
Liquid applied waterproofing offers numerous benefits for car parks. This method conforms to British Standards such as BS 8102, providing assured performance against water ingress.
Our systems use materials like polyurethane or polymethyl methacrylate (PMMA), which are resistant to UV radiation and temperature fluctuations. These coatings ensure:
Seamless Application: Eliminates joints and seams where water could penetrate, providing a uniform barrier against moisture.
Adaptable to Complex Shapes: Easily applied to irregular surfaces and edges, ensuring all areas are protected, including intricate designs or curves.
Durability: Resists weathering, chemicals, and mechanical wear, prolonging the structure's integrity even under frequent vehicle use.
Minimal Disruption: Quick curing process reduces downtime, allowing you to reopen your facility in as little as two to three days.
These benefits contribute to extending the lifespan of your car park deck and reducing long-term maintenance costs. Request a free quote to experience these advantages for yourself.
How Long Does Liquid Applied Waterproofing Take?
Applying liquid waterproofing typically takes between two to four days, depending on the area size and weather conditions. We use a polyurethane-based liquid membrane, which is well-known for its flexibility and durability.
Efficient curing methods, such as the use of infrared heaters, can expedite the process, allowing most surfaces to be traffic-ready within 24 to 48 hours post-application. Our methods conform to industry standards, including BS 6229:2018 for flat roofs, ensuring a high level of performance.
Factors such as ambient temperature, humidity, and the substrate's condition can slightly alter these timescales, but our team always aims for prompt and professional execution. We ensure minimal disruption for occupants of commercial properties, retail complexes, and residential buildings.

How Long Does Liquid Applied Waterproofing Last?
Liquid applied waterproofing systems generally last 10 to 20 years when properly maintained. These systems comprise materials like polyurethane or polymethyl methacrylate (PMMA), each offering unique properties suited to various car park decks.
Environmental factors such as UV exposure, temperature fluctuations, and chemical spills can affect longevity, as can the frequency and type of vehicular traffic, such as heavy goods vehicles or consistent commuter flows. Adhering to maintenance recommendations, including biannual inspections and prompt attention to any surface cracks or blisters, can significantly extend the system's usability.
Engaging with certified professionals for repairs and following recognised standards such as BS 8102 for waterproofing ensures optimal protection of the underlying concrete or asphalt structures. Regular inspection and timely repair of any signs of wear can further extend this duration, ensuring long-term performance and protection of the underlying structure.
