An open terrace is a wonderful space to share memorable times with family and friends. However, it often experiences issues such as water leaks or humidity appearing on the living space immediately below, as well as tiles popping out from the floor. A proper installation system begins with a fortified mortar bed to provide adequate leveling to drain water. A waterproofing and crack isolation membrane is essential to prevent water leaks and compensate for movement when concrete expands and contracts due to temperature changes. Finally, the tile mortar must contain a high content of polymers and additives to provide high flexibility and deformability. Utilizing a next-generation, non-shrink, color-consistent impervious cement grout with enhanced resistance to efflorescence and mildew provides the final touch.
