Waterproofing services for green roofs
There is a major demand occurring in new commercial construction for “green roofs.” Green roofs attract tenants. Green roofs have excellent investment paybacks related to heating/cooling energy savings plus water drainage credits from city municipalities. Waterproofing a green roof is an extremely important construction detail that must be done by an expert team like Kremer Davis. We will meet with your architectural firm to ensure all specifications needed for this crucial area are correct. We will also make sure the installation is done correctly to provide both attractive aesthetics as well as a properly functioning rooftop eco-system.
Services to help prevent mold
Helping to prevent mold within any new facility is a primary long-term benefit of utilizing Kremer Davis services. Mold is unsightly and has recently come to the forefront as a significant health issue in both commercial and residential facilities.
With appropriate waterproofing, dampproofing, vapor barriers, site planning/landscaping, backfilling and drainage techniques, mold risk is significantly minimized. Mold spores need moisture and oxygen to establish a mold infestation. Kremer Davis technology and application expertise helps ensure that the moisture needed by mold spores does not enter a building.
