What to consider when selecting a waterproofing contractor?

Importance of professional waterproofing in Singapore humid climate

Waterproofing in Singapore mainly covers residential, commercial and industrial. Humid climate in Singapore also damages the buildings over time. Building damages can be due to different elements of weather conditions and other external factors. E.g external walls cracks which is why its important to allocate waterproofing be it renovation or construction wise.

Potential Consequences of inadequate waterproofing

Having an inadequate contractor with lesser experience in waterproofing will result in building defects not properly done well or worse, not solving the given issue.  Contractors who allows and provide such inadequate services do not have comprehensive knowledge on the matter at hand,such as the PU Grouting application where the skills needed to understand where the source of leakage is.

Another area where they might skip out on is that they do not provide warranty for the job given. Leading to them doing an inadequate job as they only stop the issue at hand temporarily.

In the event where the above is true ,there are events that contractors are uncontactable after the service as well as collection of money after the job is done. This leaves the client dealing with the headache and unfulfilled works that results in the end.

Key consideration when selecting a waterproofing contractor

There are mainly 4 items to consider when selecting a waterproofing contractor which are:

-Experience and expertise- An experience with a solid expertise team will ensure the client will be satisfied and be free of worry from waterproofing leakages or future problems. Which is a better option as the team has done countless of such repairs.

-Qualifications and certifications- Currently, our company has retained bizSafe star accreditation  , Singapore Concrete institute (SCI), ISO45001 which are important certificates to show that a company has been in the industry for many years, proving that it is here to stay in the long term.

Which is an important factor to take note when selecting the correct service provider.

-Project portfolio – With many portfolios this shows that we have been in the sector for 20 years as many buildings have been around since then. Project portfolio lets the client understand what the company has been through , and if the services suit the client.

-Warranty and guarantees – The warranty is to give faith to the client that we will be there in the event of recurrence of the leaks. And to provide sufficient time for defects to be arrested in time.  There are many forms of warranty in terms of the years held upon the contractor. Each given a time frame depending on the needs of the clients.
