Effective Waterproofing provides an overview of effective concrete waterproofing technologies and how they improve the durability and lifespan of structures and includes discussions on water penetration, system selection, membrane protection, and cementitious waterproofing. You’ve trusted W. R. MEADOWS to protect your structure from the harmful effects of moisture intrusion. Now we’re proud to introduce our newest waterproofing technology – MEL-ROL PRECON – a dual function underslab and blindside waterproofing membrane. MEL-ROL PRECON goes where conventional waterproofing products are impractical – such as positive-side waterproofing where access is prohibited due to the soil retention system. MEL-ROL PRECON bonds tenaciously to poured concrete walls to create solid waterproofing protection. Superior to traditional clay-type products, MEL-ROL PRECON features a greater seal to stop water. A patented asphalt core also creates stronger protection than clay-type products currently used. MEL-ROL PRECON does double-duty when used in horizontal applications for underslab waterproofing and vaporproofing. Not only does it block water, it also inhibits vapor intrusion, creating an environmentally friendly indoor environment. MEL-ROL PRECON is a great fit for all waterproofing and vaporproofing needs – plus, it works seamlessly with all other MEL-ROL products.
