Jun 03,2024

For home decoration, home decoration waterproof has a pivotal position in the entire home decoration process. The bathroom, in the whole house is the most in contact with water, is also one of the most important parts of daily life. Toilet waterproof project for the whole link requirements are relatively high, such as the preliminary preparation, waterproof material requirements, engineering quality requirements, construction process and so on.


In general, whether the toilet waterproof practice is proper affects the service life and comfort of the future toilet, and must be paid great attention to and strictly implemented. The following is a small collection of bathroom waterproof practices need to pay attention to five points.


1, Do not destroy the original waterproof layer


Usually in the newly delivered buildings, such as bathrooms, kitchens, bathrooms and other floors are made in accordance with the relevant specifications of the waterproof layer, so as long as the original waterproof layer is not damaged, after occupancy generally will not occur such as leakage. The current problem is that some owners in order to increase some facilities at home, such as bathroom bathing equipment, on the original waterproof layer of the home to re-layout or move, indirectly destroyed the original waterproof layer, and if not repaired in time, it is easy to lead to leakage in the future causing unnecessary security risks. Therefore, in the decoration, the waterproof layer needs to pay special attention to, if there is inadvertent damage should be repaired in time, in case of emergency.


2, Bathroom wall waterproof


Wall waterproof is also a problem that needs attention. As we all know, when we take a bath in the bathroom, many times the water will splash onto the adjacent wall, and if there is no waterproof layer protection, the wall is very easy to damp and mildew. Therefore, it is necessary to waterproof the wall before laying the wall tile.


Under normal circumstances, the waterproof wall of the bathroom is usually made of 30 cm high, and the non-load-bearing light body wall needs to be waterproof the whole wall, and the height is at least 1.8 meters. As for the bathroom using the bathtub, the waterproof height needs to be higher than the top edge of the bathtub.


3, Toilet floor waterproof and seam waterproof


When replacing the floor tile, such as replacing the original floor tile in the bathroom, the cement mortar floor should be levelled after removing the original floor tile, and then waterproof treatment. First, it can avoid leakage, and second, the engineering specification is durable and safe.


In addition, in the replacement of floor tiles, because the joints between the wall and the ground and the joints of the water pipes are the most prone to problems, so in this area of decoration, we must urge good workers to deal with these corners and corners, and pay attention to whether the application of waterproof paint is in place. Such as the cement mulch of the water pipe and the surface waterproof layer are all problems that need attention.


4. The grooves of the water pipes in the bathroom wall are waterproof


The waterproofing of the groove of the water pipe in the wall is also one of the factors that cannot be ignored. When the pipeline, floor drain, etc. passes through the floor, the embedded water pipe in the wall should be made of grooves larger than the diameter of the pipe, and the groove should be smooth and painted with waterproof paint. In addition, the floor of the kitchen and bathroom need to be set into an angled leak. In increasing the slope, the kitchen, bathroom pipeline decoration should also avoid changing the original drainage pipes and floor drains in the home, so as not to cause leakage and leave hidden dangers.


5, Acceptance waterproof


The acceptance project has an important role for home decoration, which is the inspection and affirmation of the waterproof project in the early stage.


The specific method is: after the completion of the waterproof project, seal the bathroom door and the water outlet, and make a mark after the water storage on the toilet floor reaches a certain height. If the liquid level does not decrease significantly within 24 hours and there is no leakage in the downstairs housing, the waterproof is qualified.


In addition, for the waterproof inspection of the wall, you can use the water pipe to do a good job of the waterproof layer on the wall from the top down for 3 minutes, generally 4 hours without penetration phenomenon can be identified as qualified.
