Water Tank Waterproofing
Waterproof and protect concrete water-retaining structures against leakage and water loss.
Solution overview
Understanding the application.
Nia Build provides waterproofing solutions for concrete water tanks and other water-retaining structures. The system is selected according to the condition and intended use of the structure, with careful treatment of concrete surfaces, cracks, construction joints, penetrations and other potential leakage points.
Common signs
What may be happening.
Water loss, visible leakage, damp external surfaces, leaking construction joints, cracks, seepage around penetrations and deterioration of internal tank surfaces.
Assessment & considerations
Understand the conditions first.
Assess the intended use of the tank, structural condition, cracks, construction joints, pipe penetrations, previous coatings or repairs, active leakage and accessibility of internal and external surfaces.
Solution approach
Select an appropriate system.
Prepare and repair the concrete substrate, treat cracks, joints and penetrations, stop active leakage where required and install a waterproofing system appropriate to the tank's intended service conditions.
