Facade Waterproofing Services

The client had severe water leakages through various parts of the facade and almost at every floor level. The client had built the facade as an “open groove semi unitized system” This means the groove will not be filled through sealants but will remain open or rather void, however, the system will internally have a barrier system made up of EPDM rubbers, this will keep the water outside the system. If you ask me personally, the client had spent good money and has actually bought a good system.

Glass Hoppers devised a simple but powerful solution by converting the entire facade from open groove system to "Pressure Plate & Cover Cap System" meaning the open groove shall be sealed with Aluminum Pressure Plate and capped with "Decorative Cover Cap System", This performs better, as it not only covers void but also the ends have got rubber barriers, that keeps the water outside and even by chance if the water seeps in, the same shall be drained out through an inbuilt weep hole in the system.
