FOUNDATION WATERPROOFING

As below grade residential living space becomes more common, homeowners are discovering that traditional dampproofing doesn't provide adequate moisture protection for what is in many cases their primary entertainment area.  Foundation waterproofing systems offer builders and home buyers significant added value for only a little more initial cost than simple dampproof coatings.

Lucas #735 Elastomeric Foundation Coating is a polymer modified asphalt coating that is spray applied onto the foundation wall at a rate of 60 wet mils.  Dry mil thickness is a minimum 40 mils which complies with the waterproofing requirements of the International Residential Code section R406.2. 

Lucas #735 Elastomeric Foundation Coating offers the following performance advantages.

• Rubberized - bridges non-structural cracks

• Resists hydrostatic pressure

• Penetrates and seals - Not just a surface coating like water-based products

• Applies directly to un-parged block

• Adheres to green and damp concrete

• Won't wash off

• Won't freeze

• No heating required

• Applies easily from 20 degrees to 120 degrees F
