Even if specific points are repaired, new comprehensive waterproofing is necessary to guarantee watertightness.<\/p>\n\n<p><strong>Leaks next to downspouts or drains<\/strong><\/p>\n\n<p>These are critical points that are often attempted to be superficially sealed. What is needed is <strong>to open, clean, apply a reinforced system and close it again correctly<\/strong> .<\/p>\n\n<p><strong>Moisture in underground walls or basements<\/strong><\/p>\n\n<p>In these cases, superficial solutions do not work.
