Waterproofing Floors

Floors

As well as being a complete waterproofing and damp proofing system Delta Membrane system is also used to upgrade damp and defective floors. With excellent crush resistance the system lends itself to a variety of different finishes which include conventional screeds, thin layer fast drying screeds and wood based floating floors. Insulation can also be used in conjunction with the system where required. The system can be linked to the damp proof course constructed within a new wall or to an existing or chemical damp proof course.

Preperation

As the membrane systems are mechanically fixed there is no reliance on the ability of the product to bond to the substrate, The Delta system can be applied to a variety of different substrates for example over existing renders or broken down bitumen coatings etc. This can easily be achieved without detriment to the integrity of the system.

Damp Pressure Equalisation

The studded structure of the membrane allows the dampness behind the membrane to move in all directions unhindered, therefore the whole of the wall or floor surface takes the damp loading. Deterioration and breakdown created by weak points are eliminated. The product does not divert the problem to other areas.

Flexiblity

In structures where movement or vibration can be a problem such as sub- street vaults, railway arches and buildings constructed with movement joints, the Delta system is well able to cope. The Delta membrane has an elongation of greater than 50%. To see more information on Delta Systems visit their website at www.deltamembranes.com
