In the realm of building rehabilitation, the restoration of roofs with Catalan tiles faces serious challenges. This coating, emblematic of traditional architecture, shows clear signs of wear over time, such as empty joints, moisture accumulation, and loss of structural cohesion. These circumstances complicate conventional waterproofing systems, which often fail to provide effective solutions.
To tackle this issue, Eagle Waterproofing has introduced a comprehensive approach utilizing the UltraPrime REG and Ultraflex systems. This innovative solution not only promises to be quick and durable but also ensures long-term sustainability.
The process begins with the removal of the old coating and a thorough cleaning of the surface. UltraPrime REG, a self-leveling epoxy resin designed for critical situations, is then applied. The procedure is carried out in two stages: a thin layer around the perimeters and a thicker layer with a rubber trowel in the flat areas, allowing for filling joints and leveling the support. This product is notable for its ability to regularize and consolidate deteriorated materials, significantly shortening the waiting time during rehabilitation.
After treating the support, the Ultraflex wet-on-wet system, a reinforced liquid membrane that guarantees a uniform thickness across the surface, is applied. This technology is particularly beneficial, adapting to the irregularities of the Catalan tiles and guaranteeing high-performance waterproof protection. The finish includes Ultratop WR, a coating designed to withstand both heavy traffic and standing water.
The combination of these products not only enhances the space but also offers guarantees of up to 25 years, ensuring long-term protection without replacing the original tiles. This translates into a more efficient process, minimizing costs and environmental impact.
Eagle Waterproofing stands out for its practical approach, offering solutions that benefit applicators, architects, technicians, and end customers. According to Gemma Mogas, General Manager of Eagle Waterproofing Ibérica, solving the problems of professionals positively impacts the entire construction process.
With over 25 years in the liquid solutions sector, the technical team at Eagle Waterproofing is dedicated to developing products that meet real construction challenges. UltraPrime REG and Ultraflex symbolize a new era in waterproofing systems, merging technology, efficiency, and durability, offering an effective solution where other methods fail.
