The clock is ticking, and the pressure is on. With the Philippines’ notorious rainy season fast approaching, Zumicon Coating and Waterproofing Services Co. is in high gear, ensuring that the roof deck and exterior walls of a prestigious mall building are fully waterproofed in time. The objective is clear: prevent leaks, fortify structural integrity, and safeguard business operations against the relentless downpours that characterize the monsoon months.

Waterproofing a massive commercial structure like a high-end mall is no small feat, especially when racing against nature’s timeline. The rainy season in the Philippines typically begins in June and lasts until November, bringing heavy rains and strong winds that can wreak havoc on unfinished or improperly sealed structures. Delays in waterproofing could lead to costly damage, project setbacks, and operational disruptions.

To ensure that the mall is fully protected, Zumicon Coating and Waterproofing Services Co. employed a systematic and fast-paced waterproofing approach, using top-of-the-line materials and advanced techniques:

1. Roof Deck Waterproofing: The First Line of Defense

  • Polyurethane and Bituminous Waterproofing Systems: Applied in multiple layers to create a durable and watertight membrane.

  • Seamless Liquid-Applied Coatings: Used for their ability to create a uniform barrier without weak points.

  • Drainage and Sloping Improvements: Ensuring proper water flow to prevent ponding and leakage.

  • Curing Acceleration Techniques: Utilizing rapid-dry compounds to cut down curing time and speed up the process.





  • 2. Exterior Wall Waterproofing: Keeping the Facade Safe and Dry

      With the looming deadline, Zumicon deployed a highly skilled workforce, working in shifts to ensure round-the-clock progress. Specialized equipment such as airless sprayers, infrared moisture detectors, and fast-curing techniques were utilized to maximize efficiency.


The Final Stretch: Beating the Rain

As the last sections of the roof deck and exterior walls received their final waterproofing layers, the team remained vigilant, conducting thorough quality checks to ensure every inch of the structure was protected. Test sprays, moisture readings, and simulated rain tests were conducted to verify the system’s integrity.

With the completion of this high-speed waterproofing project, the prestigious mall is now fully shielded from the impending downpours, ensuring a dry and comfortable environment for its tenants and shoppers. This feat of engineering, teamwork, and urgency is a testament to Zumicon’s expertise in strategic planning and execution.

As the first rains of the season arrive, this mall will stand strong, proving that with the right approach, even the most pressing construction challenges can be conquered in time. Thanks to Zumicon Coating and Waterproofing Services Co., the mall’s future remains leak-free and resilient against the elements.
