March 19, 2019

Reason # 1: Avoid spending on waterproofing in the future.

The main reason for the new building must have been planning waterproofing since the planning process. This is also to reduce waterproofing expenses when the building is renovated. In addition, buildings that have been waterproofed from the beginning will be able to withstand weather and rainwater longer. Datra as a company that is also experienced in waterproofing is often involved in waterproofing projects in apartments and high-rise buildings from the beginning of the development planning process. This is because contractors and architects are familiar with Datra's products and believe in the quality of the services we offer. So that when the building is finished, the contractor no longer needs to think about the waterproofing process of the building.

Reason # 2: Prevents property damage

Besides that, the second important reason is preventing damage to property in the long run. Buildings that have been given waterproofing can last longer and avoid property damage which of course will cost a lot. For example, Datra is often trusted for roof or rooftop waterproofing. Waterproofing here is important because the roof is the part that is most often exposed to rainwater and is most prone to leaks. If the roof has leaked, it will usually spread everywhere. Datra waterproofing products have guaranteed quality and to ensure the quality of waterproofing we also hold a 1x24 hour soak test to check for leaks. When the roof is secure, it can reduce the threat of leaking the building.

Reason # 3: Waterproofing can be a feature in property marketing

Many developers and contractors to property consumers make the waterproofing feature of the building one of the selling points of the property. For developers and contractors, the presence of this waterproofing feature guarantees the quality of the building to consumers who buy buildings. As for consumers, buildings that have been waterproofed will reduce the cost of their maintenance costs in the future and also increase the quality of the building in their eyes. An example of this can be seen in one of the luxury housing projects that Datra is working on. Even though the housing is just under construction, it is out of stock because the developer's marketing tactics also include interesting features of the housing, one of which is waterproofing.
