Asphalt is a common material used for outdoor surfaces due to its durability, flexibility and resistance to weathering.

Premium Asphalt Balcony Waterproofing Solutions For Lasting Protection

Why balcony waterproofing matters?

Your balcony is exposed to various weather conditions, making it susceptible to water damage, cracks, and erosion over time. Our advanced balcony waterproofing solutions are designed to address these challenges, protecting your investment and enhancing the longevity of your property. The asphalt balcony waterproofing process typically involves the application of specialised waterproofing products or coatings to the asphalt surface. These products create a protective barrier that prevents water from penetrating the asphalt, safeguarding the balcony from moisture-related damage. The goal is to enhance the durability and longevity of the balcony, ensuring it remains resilient against weathering, UV exposure, and other environmental factors.

What is the best waterproofing for balconies?

As for the best waterproofing for balconies, the choice depends on various factors such as the balcony's construction, materials used, and local climate. Choosing the best waterproofing method involves assessing the specific requirements of the balcony, considering factors like climate, usage, and existing materials. It's advisable to consult with a professional waterproofing contractor to determine the most appropriate solution for your particular balcony. Some commonly used waterproofing methods for balconies include:

​​​

  • Bituminous coatings, Asphalt-based coatings that offer excellent water resistance. Often referred to as the 'King of Waterproofing'. Effective for balconies with concrete and asphalt surfaces.​

  • Acrylic waterproofing forms a breathable and UV-resistant coating. Ideal for balconies with lighter foot traffic.

  • Epoxy waterproofing creates a strong and impermeable surface. Suitable for balconies with high traffic and exposure to harsh weather conditions.
