Application of a waterproof plaster system to below-ground and water-exposed wall surfaces, providing a durable, moisture-resistant internal finish that completes the structural waterproofing programme and prepares walls for decoration.
— about this service
Procure Damp Proofing Group specifies and applies a waterproof plaster system suited to the substrate and the waterproofing system in place, typically a sand and cement render or a pre-bagged waterproof renovation plaster, applied in the correct number of coats at the right thickness to produce a sound, flat surface. Waterproof plastering is always installed as the final stage of a coordinated structural waterproofing programme and is never specified as a standalone fix for a damp or wet wall. The result is a finished internal surface that accepts conventional decoration once fully cured, leaving the space ready for its intended use.
— our process
Before plastering begins, the waterproofing system beneath is confirmed as correctly installed and in the appropriate condition to receive the plaster. Any remedial preparation required is completed before any plaster is applied.
The specified waterproof plaster system is applied in the correct number of coats at the required thickness, with appropriate scratch coat preparation and finishing techniques to produce a sound, flat, moisture-resistant substrate.
The completed plaster is allowed to cure fully before decoration is applied. Procure advises on cure times and any post-cure monitoring required, ensuring the surface is genuinely ready before any finishing work proceeds.
— benefits
Standard gypsum plasters will fail on a below-ground or moisture-affected wall. Waterproof plaster systems are formulated to tolerate the elevated moisture and salt environment present in basements and cellars, providing a finish that performs as part of the wider waterproofing programme.
Waterproof plastering is the final stage of a Procure structural waterproofing project, not a standalone product. Every preceding stage, survey, tanking or membrane installation and substrate preparation, is completed correctly before plastering begins.
— faq
Standard gypsum plasters are water-soluble and incompatible with the residual moisture and salts present in below-ground environments. They will absorb moisture, fail structurally and cause rapid deterioration of any decoration applied over them. A waterproof plaster system is the only appropriate finish in these conditions.
Procure Damp Proofing Group applies waterproof plaster systems correctly specified for below-ground environments, as part of a fully coordinated structural waterproofing programme across Bedfordshire.
