Basement Water Proofing
Looking for a solution to a musty or moist basement?
The basement leaks as a result of hydrostatic pressure that develops as water collects around the foundation. Any joints or fissures in the concrete as well as its pores allow water to seep inside. Concrete pores are enlarged by water, which also dissolves alkalis. Concrete ages and becomes increasingly permeable. It draws water by absorbing it, and once the pores are saturated, they start to wick water up from the ground below (capillary suction). If the water seepage is not correctly treated, it may result in significant damages.
One of the leading waterproofing firms in the UAE, Essentials Mover LLC, has created special methods to waterproof basements. Our chemicals interact and react within the concrete matrix to form a non-soluble crystalline formation that fills and plugs up the concrete’s capillary pathways and tiny shrinkage fractures.

Waterproofing of the roof gutters
Dirt accumulates and clogs drains as a result of rain and sandstorms. Drainages must always be kept in good condition. There must be a sufficient number of drainage points that permit the water to flow smoothly in order for gutters to function efficiently. However, when it is obstructed, water sneaks through the spaces between the sheet and the gutter in an effort to reach its level. Not all waterproofing companies in Dubai have expertise in waterproofing gutters. Any waterproofing work will be handled by our skilled professionals, who’ll also make sure that your gutter starts working as efficiently as it should.
Heat Insulation
Is the cost of your electricity making a dent in your finances? Everyone is aware that the UAE experiences year-round sunshine and humidity. Summertime sees an increase in humidity as temperatures soar to up to 48 degrees Celsius for extended periods of time. Since the UAE is said to have some of the highest rates of electricity and water consumption in the world, it is crucial to identify ways to reduce energy consumption.
You need heat insulation for your walls, ceiling, and roof if you want to reduce your electricity costs by up to 50%. Our company, Vanity Technical Services LLC, is a Supreme Waterproofing & Insulation Company that can effectively apply a ceramic coating to metal or concrete roofs.
Joints of Expansion Waterproofing
Horizontal and vertical expansion joints repair and sealing
The seams between walls and concrete slabs might be considered expansion joints. Cuts in concrete slabs that entirely penetrate the slab to the subsurface are known as concrete expansion joints. An expansion joint’s function is to prevent the concrete slab from cracking by allowing it to expand and contract in response to temperature variations. To stop water from seeping into concrete expansion joints and damaging the sub base, the joints must be sealed with a flexible sealant or an expansion joint strip. As with any concrete repair, a successful outcome depends on paying careful attention to joint preparation. To make sure that any stones, dirt, or loose debris are removed, expansion joints should be cleaned out.
Self-Levelling the very fluid and flexible polyurethane sealant may be stretched up to 7 percent without breaking. This permits ground movement and temperature-related expansion and contraction. Before applying the sealant to joints larger than 1/4-inch, Backer Rod, a foam rope, should be inserted into the expansion joint. A sealant depth of between 1/8 inch and 1/2 inch should be allowed while pressing the backer rod into the joint. The inside margins of the crack or joint should be the only place polyurethane sealants are adhered for optimal performance.
Waterproofing of Roof Drains
When building the roof structure, it is crucial to waterproof the roof drainage. It is well known that tension is naturally weak in concrete roofs. Concrete’s thermal expansion, contraction, and shrinkage can cause voids and cracks to appear. Water will consequently infiltrate through the gaps. Since the roof is exposed to the elements, waterproofing is necessary to keep it dry. Because water can be diverted and start leaking in other places, the roof drainage system needs to be waterproofed in the same way. Applying cementitious liquid waterproofing allows you to cover existing roof drainage surfaces and structures that are under, around, and over.
