New house into a swimming pool? Don t let the wrong waterproofing steps ruin your home!

I'm Lao Zhang, a freelancer who is keen on the February ** Dynamic Incentive Plan for decoration trivialities. My interest in floor waterproofing stems from a series of twists and turns in the renovation of my new house, and I have gradually become a half-expert when I see this thing flying from advertising to really affecting the laying of floor tiles in my home. Today, I want to talk to you about this waterproofing agent, and talk about the problems and experiences I encountered in actual operation.

Did you know? Two days ago, I went to supervise the renovation of the new home, and found that the bricklayer master actually took the expensive ground waterproofing agent and poured it on the ground like pouring water. "Can this be even? I couldn't help but blurt out, thinking that this is related to whether our family will become a "water curtain hole" in the future!

Let's recall the development process of ground waterproofing agents, from the earliest materials that were coated thick like mud to the current new generation of products that are thin and easy to brush and have strong permeability, it has really experienced a big leap. I remember that I also studied it back then, and said that scientists took great pains to make this thing not only prevent water but also not affect the base material.

It was a sunny day, and I walked into the construction site with great anticipation, only to see a scene that made my jaw drop - the bricklayer Lao Li held a large bucket of waterproofing agent in his hand and poured it onto the concrete floor in an irregular manner. I stood there, frowning, muttering to myself, "This is construction, it's clearly a waste of things!" "This scene made me deeply worried about the quality of construction.

Lao Li, an old bricklayer with more than 20 years of work experience, has excellent craftsmanship on weekdays, but he looks so casual in this waterproofing agent. He patted his chest and said confidently: "I've been doing it for so many years, can I still understand this little work?" "But looking at the liquid flowing all over the ground, my heart was up and down.

In order to ensure the waterproofing effect, I deliberately did my homework in advance, and learned that the waterproofing agent needs to be blended strictly according to the proportion, and then carefully applied to ensure that every inch of the ground can be evenly covered. However, Lao Li's approach clearly violates the basic rules. What worries me even more is that if something goes wrong, it may not be known until the rainy season arrives and the home becomes a swimming pool. So, I decided to go into battle myself, not only to verify the scientific method, but also to give myself peace of mind.

Now these ground waterproofing agents are very powerful, and some even have a self-leveling function, which can automatically fill the gaps as long as they are applied correctly. Compared with Lao Li's "bold" splashing method, the performance advantages of these products are much more obvious, which is why I insist on following the instructions.

After I decided to take matters into my own hands, there was a contest between Lao Li and me about craftsmanship and tradition. I explained the modern waterproofing process in detail, and he stuck to the experience. As the story progressed, after some trial and practice, Lao Li also began to realize that there were indeed hidden dangers in his practice, and began to accept new construction methods.

Finally, it was time to accept the waterproof layer, and the nervous mood seemed to be waiting for the verdict. I conducted a thorough test with clean water, and when I saw that the water was leaking nowhere to seep, the big stone hanging in my heart fell to the ground. When Lao Li saw the test results, he couldn't help but give me a thumbs up and sigh at the changes brought about by scientific and technological progress.

Hands-on practice has taught me that a good floor waterproofing agent should not only be effective, but also convenient for construction. For example, the do-it-yourself product that I use not only covers evenly, but also dries quickly without affecting the subsequent process. This practicality is the key to winning the market.

It turns out that in addition to waterproofing, the ground waterproofing agent can also prevent alkaline substances from eroding the tiles and prolong the service life of the ground. It's a detail I hadn't paid attention to before, and it's something new I've learned through this experience.

Although the decoration is tiring, we can't ignore every little detail related to the quality of life. In the face of the collision of tradition and modernity, we must dare to challenge and explore, because the safety and comfort of home lie in these seemingly insignificant choices.

So you see, the choice of ground waterproofing agent is not a trivial matter, its application effect, construction methods and even the technological innovation behind it directly affect the quality of our living environment. I hope that through my sharing, everyone understands that every step in the decoration process needs to be treated carefully, even if it seems to be an inconspicuous waterproof link, it must be supervised in place, so as to create a truly reassuring home. And I have also learned from this that sometimes, doing it yourself is more practical than anything else.
