Most often, simple buildings have a flat roof. Consider the main stages of independent waterproofing of a flat roof.
Your home is much more than just a residential building. It is always surrounded by vital satellites: garage, boiler room, bath, gazebo, etc.
Most often, these simple buildings have a flat roof. Of course, at the construction stage, the question arises: how to most effectively make waterproofing roofing, given the volume and irregular functionality of buildings, because difficult schemes do not make sense. Something is required very clear, simple, not requiring special skills, knowledge and equipment, but at the same time durable.
It is under such needs specialists from Tekhnonikol developed self-adhesive waterproofing material on a solid polyester basis with coarse sprinkle - "Waterproofing of a flat roofing TechnoNIKOL".

The material is used for the device of flat non-exploitable roofs (garages, arbors, household buildings) with single-layer roofing carpet - both for new buildings and for the repair of existing roofing coatings.
The material has several important advantages at once.
First, multifunctionality. In addition to reliable waterproofing, the material is a finish layer of a flat roof due to hydrophobized (water-repellent) shale sprinkling, which provides long-term protection of the waterproofing layer from the destructive effects of ultraviolet.

The material can serve as waterproofing the bases from reinforced concrete slabs, aligning monolithic screeds from cement-sandy solution, prefabricated dry screeds from flat pressed asbestos-cement sheets or CSPs, as well as wooden solid bases from plywood and OSP.
Secondly, the waterproofing material has a base of polyester, therefore, in contrast to the classical rubberoid, the material is not destroyed by the action of atmospheric precipitation, it is not deformed when changing weather conditions and is able to withstand the load that the base is exposed during operation.

Thirdly, the waterproofing bitumen-polymer layer and the self-adhesive bitumen polymer mixture are manufactured from high-quality materials, which serves as an additional guarantee of reliable coating service.
And fourth, laying of this material does not require professional skills and additional equipment. The lack of an open flame during installation allows laying on combustible bases - for example, on Paneur or OSP plates.
Note that the installation rate of self-adhesive waterproofing is three times higher than the apparatus. Longitudinal self-adhesive bands provide reliable waterproofing in places of adhesive rolls.
The installation process consists of only several operations.
First, the dirt and garbage is removed from the roof, as well as the old coating, if it comes to roof renovation.
Next, a bitumen primer is applied to the dry surface to improve adhesion (clutch) of waterproofing. After drying the primer begins styling. The material is placed in one layer.
As a rule, all flat roofs are made with a small bias so that water is not stored, so it is necessary to take into account its movement and have overhearses on the water movement material so that the moisture is not stored. Accordingly, the laying of waterproofing is required to be back-up, parallel to the cornice sve.
The roofing knife is cut into the material of the required length, after which it is rolled back into the roll. Next, neatly removing the protective film, the roll rolls over the surface and pressed. In the locations of the side alternation at Rulona there is a special bitumen strip that allows you to control the width of the adhesion and easily perform the merging of the material. To enhance the clutch, it is recommended to roll heavy roller.

Installation is performed at an outdoor temperature not lower than plus 10 degrees.
Roll size - 8 x 1 m, weight -5 kg / m2, thickness - 4.2 mm. Rolls are made in such a way that they are conveniently transported independently and raise on the roof. That is, all operations can perform one person.

Due to its structure used by materials and simplicity of installation "Waterproofing a flat roofing technoNIKOL" reliably serves on any reasons for more than 20 years.
