What happens if
the membrane is damaged prior to tile installation?
Do not attempt to repair it yourself. This would void any
guarantee. Please call the licensed applicator who installed your
system for them to make any repairs.
Are
the products used in the Flexi-Seal Waterproofing System
safe and non toxic? Yes. Unlike some membrane systems utilising
epoxies or fibreglass etc the Flexi-Seal system contains no dangerous
solvents or hydrocarbon. It is a water based system with very
little odour.
Is the system expensive?
No. When you compare the Flexi-Seal Licensed Waterproofing
System against other systems and the peace of mind that
your shower or deck wont leak, it is very affordable.
What adhesives should
we use when installing tiles onto Flexi-Seal?
Your local licensed applicator for Flexi-Seal will
recommend you use Flexi Wall n Floor 2 Part High Performance
Adhesive on areas which have been waterproofed over wooden
substrates. This will offer ultimate flexibility. On more stable
substrates such as concrete, "Flexi-Seal General Purpose
Single Pack Adhesive" may be used. Your licensed applicator
will advise where these two recommended adhesives can be purchased
from.
Why cant
I use a One Pot dispersion adhesive? This is not recommended
on waterproofing or in wet areas. Dispersion adhesives rely on
a water loss curing mechanism and are re-emulsifiable.
I have a concrete
floor without polythene underneath, and moisture is coming up
through it. Will Flexi-Seal stop this? Yes. As with walls
with hydrostatic water pressure problems, Flexi-Seal Positive
Pressure Coat is used in conjunction with the standard Flexi-Seal
Waterproofing System. For performance data please view specific
data sheets relating to the products used in the Flexi-Seal
Licensed Waterproofing System.
