Base seal

Regardless of whether the base is insulated, rendered or has visible brickwork, it is one of the parts of a building that is subject to the most loads. In addition to rising damp and splashwater, loads can also be mechanical. Especially if the base is damaged or waterproofing is missing, then serious damage can occur.

The base area of the existing building is exposed to particularly extreme loads. Whilst the façade section above generally shows no signs of damage even after many years, the paintwork on the base often starts to peel, shows signs of efflorescence or even massive spalling. The base area is the seam between the façade and the waterproofing of the building that has contact with the ground. Therefore, visible areas and also areas that have contact with the ground always needs to be examined and restored. Remmers MB 2K is an innovative waterproofing product that can be used to securely and permanently waterproof this transition area. Due to its innovative formulation, MB 2K demonstrates excellent adhesion to mineral and also bitumen-based surfaces.

Openings, connections or transitions need to be connected securely to the flat waterproofing of buildings. This is especially challenging for house doors and floor-to-ceiling windows. In addition to the difficulties in processing conventional waterproofing materials, there are often adhesion problems in the transition area of mineral surfaces on window and/or door elements. Complicated transitions can be waterproofed reliably with a combination of MB 2K and joint belt SK 10 / SK 25. This allows the newly installed window and door elements to be connected easily to the existing waterproofing of buildings, especially during restoration.
