How Long Does Waterproofing Last?

The lifespan of waterproofing largely depends on the type of material used and the conditions it is exposed to. Generally, well-maintained waterproofing can last between 5 and 20 years, although some materials can last even longer.

How Long Does Waterproofing Last

For example, if a liquid-applied waterproofing membrane is properly installed, it can last up to 15 years. Similarly, a polyurethane coating can last up to 20 years if properly maintained. On the other hand, cementitious coatings may only last 5-10 years.

Several factors can affect the lifespan of waterproofing, including exposure to weather elements, temperature changes, and exposure to chemicals or pollutants. To ensure the effectiveness of waterproofing, regular maintenance and inspections are essential. Any damage or deterioration should be promptly repaired to prevent water from seeping through.

In conclusion, the lifespan of waterproofing varies depending on several factors. It’s important to choose the right type of waterproofing material and maintain it properly to ensure its longevity and effectiveness. Regular inspections and waterproofing repairs can help prolong the life of waterproofing and protect your property from water damage.
