Waterproofing

Waterproofing membranes are crucial for showers and wet rooms, creating an impenetrable barrier against water to prevent leaks and structural damage. Tiling membranes add a crack-resistant surface for tiles, enhancing adhesion and making replacement easier. Together, they protect your shower or wet room, ensuring long-lasting tile durability and maintaining a hygienic, moisture-free environment. Choose high-quality materials and follow proper installation guidelines for optimal performance.

From 41,00 €

Sealing your tiles against water damage is one of the most important steps to take when tiling. Too many times we have seen water leaking through areas that have not been sealed sufficiently, causing much damage to homes and businesses at great expense. Classi Plus is the perfect solution to protect against water damage, guaranteeing to be 100% waterproof. Classi Plus is similar to the original Classi Seal, acting as an additional or secondary seal to protect the area between the wall and your shower or bath. With its fleeced outer layer, Classi Plus is fully compatible with both tile adhesive and sealing liquid.  The upstand (area of fleece to tile over) of Classi Plus is 70mm taller than the Classi Seal, meaning there is more flexibility to work with smaller tiles, such as subway or mosaics.  Classi Plus is flexible, waterproof, and can adapt to suit any area to be waterproofed in your home. If you decide to waterproof the entire area around your shower, shower tray or bath, then using Classi Seal will be your choice. It should be applied in one continuous strip and is flexible to mould around corners and edges.  Available in lengths of 2m, 2.5m, and 3.2m, Classi Plus will ensure you can enjoy a watertight bathroom for many years to come.   Check out the Classi website for everything you may need to know and to view their very informative video tutorials.

Ultimate Guide to Waterproofing Your Bathroom

Ultimate Guide to Waterproofing Your Bathroom

Water damage is a homeowner's nightmare, mainly when it targets the bathroom - a place constantly exposed to moisture. Properly waterproofing your bathroom keeps it dry and mould-free and ensures its longevity. 

1. Understand the Need:

  • Why Waterproof? Regular exposure to moisture can lead to mould, mildew, and structural damage in your bathroom. Waterproofing prevents these issues and maintains the bathroom's aesthetics and functionality.

2. Identify Key Areas:

  • Walls and Floors: These are the main surfaces that come into contact with water, especially around the shower and tub.
  • Ceilings: If your shower produces a lot of steam, the ceiling can also be affected.
  • Joints and Seams: The points where the wall meets the floor or the shower tray edge meets the wall are especially vulnerable.

3. Choose the Right Materials:

  • Waterproofing Membrane: This protective layer (like REVESTECH DRY 50 BANDA) is applied before tiles. It acts as a shield against water penetration.
  • Sealants: Essential for gaps and joints. Ensure you choose a waterproof sealant suitable for bathroom conditions.

4. Prepare the Surface:

  • Ensure the surface is clean, dry, and free from any loose materials.
  • Repair any existing damages, such as cracks or holes, before starting the waterproofing process.

5. Application:

  • Please start with the corners using a waterproofing tape or sealant, ensuring they are well-sealed.
  • Apply the waterproofing membrane as per the manufacturer's guidelines. Typically, it's spread using a brush or roller, ensuring no bubbles or wrinkles.
  • Allow it to dry thoroughly before laying tiles or any other finishing.

6. Test: It's good practice to test the waterproofing once everything is dried and set. The easiest way is to plug the drain, fill the bathroom with water, and check for leaks.

7. Maintain: Even after waterproofing, regular maintenance is vital. Check for any signs of wear or damage, especially after significant use or passage of time. Promptly address any issues to ensure continued protection.

Conclusion: Waterproofing your bathroom is a crucial investment that prevents potential water damage, saves money in the long run, and provides peace of mind. With the right tools, materials, and patience, you can confidently secure your bathroom against moisture-related threats. Dive into a waterproofing project today and relish in the results for years!
