BASEMENT REFURBISHMENT

SYSTEM OVERVIEW

The Fatra basement system provides a cost effective and versatile waterproofing solution for all types of basement waterproofing.

The Fatrafol 803vs is designed to withstand aggressive water pressure, hydrostatic pressure and creates a radon barrier to prevent the natural gases that are present below ground from entering the building foundations.

Unlike traditional liquid applied systems which require extensive preparation and are affected by numerous variables such as substrate moisture content, an average of 24 hour cure times per coat and inclement weather the Fatrafol Pvc membrane system performance and reliability is not affected by any of these issues which cause liquid membranes to fail so often. As the Fatrafol PVC membrane system is a sheet membrane, overlaying finishes can be installed once the installation is complete and signed off.

The Fatrafol 803vs is made with a black scrim below and a top yellow signal layer to enable contractors to easily identify any breaches in the membrane. If the yellow top layer is damaged the black scrim layer below shows through making any defects easy to spot and patch repair prior to laying a concrete slab or any other overlaying finishes.

The Fatrafol basement system is completely hot air fusion welded which doesn't rely on tapes or sealants to prevent water ingress. The membrane can be mechanically fixed or bonded using the relevant Fatrabond contact adhesive and can be installed over almost any substrate, pile walls and lift pits with minimal preparation and does not require any priming to enable the system to operate efficiently.
