Introduction
Nestled in the heart of the bustling city, a 12-story residential building faced a recurring challenge—leakages and seepage from its rooftop. Heavy rains had caused water to infiltrate the building, leading to damp walls, peeling paint, and disgruntled residents. Enter Allcon Constro Care Pvt. Ltd., a trusted name in construction solutions, renowned for its expertise in waterproofing projects under its brand, Infratask.
The Challenge
The rooftop of the building had aged over the years, and cracks had developed in the surface, weakening its integrity. Despite previous repair attempts, the water infiltration persisted. The residents demanded a long-lasting, effective solution. The project was challenging due to:
- The extensive damage from years of neglect.
- Tight deadlines to avoid further disruption during the rainy season.
- The need for a solution that would last decades.
The Plan
Allcon’s team, led by a seasoned project manager, conducted a thorough inspection. The team identified key issues, including:
- Poor drainage slopes.
- Cracks in the concrete surface.
- Inadequate waterproofing layers from prior repairs.
The team proposed a systematic plan:
- Surface Preparation: Clean the rooftop, remove damaged layers, and repair cracks.
- Primer Application: Apply a waterproof primer to enhance adhesion.
- Waterproof Membrane Installation: Use a high-quality elastomeric membrane for flexibility and durability.
- Protective Coating: Add UV-resistant coatings to ensure longevity.
- Drainage Optimization: Redesign drainage slopes for efficient water flow.
The Execution
The Allcon crew worked tirelessly, ensuring safety protocols were met at every step. Here’s how the project unfolded:
- Day 1-2: Cleaning and surface repair. Cracks were filled using polymer-modified mortar to strengthen the base.
- Day 3-4: The primer and waterproof membrane were meticulously applied, ensuring no gaps or weak points.
- Day 5-6: Protective UV-resistant coatings were added, and drainage slopes were optimized with precision.
The project was completed on time, just days before the monsoon rains.
The Results
The first rains were the ultimate test, and the results were remarkable. The residents noticed:
- No leaks or seepage.
- Better rainwater drainage.
- Cooler indoor temperatures due to the reflective coating.
