Balconies and terraces are the prominent places in the house where atmospheric agents can cause\ decay, with the result that over a period of time this could involve a large part of the structure. Among the leading causes of pollution is the effect of water especially acid rain and the presence in the air of polluting elements, such as carbon dioxide, which when reacting with lime causes carbonation corroding of the concrete. This combined with freezing conditions and frost cycles, especially on paved balconies, can cause tiles to debond and generate cracks. This can also damage the reinforcement which if unprotected, can get covered by rust, weakening the structure and causing even more long-term damage. What is really important in waterproofing solutions in general, and on terraces and balconies in particular, is the preparation of the substrate. In fact, the full success of the work will depend on this phase. Before starting this work, not only the flooring but also the wall lining must be inspected and repaired if required.
