What Are The Benefits Of Car Park Waterproofing?
Car park waterproofing is vital to maintain the longevity and safety of parking structures. Effective waterproofing not only preserves the structural integrity of these facilities but also enhances safety, reduces maintenance costs, and improves their aesthetic appearance. Additionally, car park waterproofing prevents concrete degradation, ensuring the car park remains functional and in attractive condition for many years. Below are the benefits which will be covered in detail.
- Prolongs Structural Integrity
- Enhances Safety
- Increases Longevity
- Reduces Maintenance Costs
- Improves Aesthetic Appearance
- Prevents Concrete Degradation
1. Prolongs Structural Integrity
Structural integrity refers to the ability of a structure to withstand its intended load without experiencing failure, deformation, or collapse. Maintaining structural integrtiy ensures the safety and stability of a structure throughout its designed lifespan. Car park waterproofing prolongs structural activity by preventing water from infiltrating the underlying structure. Research by the International Concrete Repair Institute indicates water penetration can reduce the lifespan of reinforced concrete structures by up to 50%. Water can cause significant damage to the structural components of a car park, particularly the steel reinforcements within concrete. When steel is exposed to water, it can rust and expand, increasing its volume by approximately 2 to 4 times, which causes the concrete to crack and spall. This degradation can compromise the strength and stability of the entire structure, leading to costly repairs or even potential failures. According to the American Concrete Institute, water-related damage accounts for nearly 80% of all concrete deterioration issues. A study conducted by the Building Research Establishment found buildings with effective waterproofing systems experienced up to 75% fewer structural failures compared to those without such protections. With concrete decks often being used in car parks the ability of good waterproofing to prolong structural integrity is emphasised.
2. Enhances Safety
Waterproofing enhances safety by reducing slip hazards caused by water pooling on surfaces. According to a study by the National Safety Council, slip and fall accidents account for over 20% of all workplace injuries. A number of these injuries occur in car parks. In car parks, with a large amount of vehicle and pedestrian traffic, accumulated water can create dangerous, slippery conditions. The Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC) reports slip hazards increase by 30% during rainy conditions. Additionally, in colder climates, standing water can freeze and form ice patches which pose significant risks to health and safety. The Insurance Institute for Highway Safety (IIHS) notes icy surfaces contribute to approximately 76,000 vehicle accidents annually. Effective waterproofing efficiently drains water away. This effective drainage keeps car park flooring dry and safe for both drivers and pedestrians, reducing the probability of injury. A report by the Health and Safety Executive (HSE) found waterproofed surfaces reduce slip incidents by up to 50% compared to non-waterproofed surfaces. This highlights the importance of quality waterproofing for car parks.
3. Increases Longevity
Car parks which are waterproofed benefit from significantly longer lifespans. A study by the Portland Cement Association found waterproofing can extend the lifespan of concrete structures by up to 100%. Water penetration can lead to a car park having a variety of issues including; corrosion, spalling, and general wear and tear. All of these issues reduce the lifespan of the car park. Research from the National Association of Corrosion Engineers (NACE) indicates corrosion due to water infiltration can reduce the lifespan of a structure by up to 40%. Waterproofing provides a barrier between the car park deck and the underlying structure. This barrier prevents issues with corrosion which consequently benefits the structures longevity. According to a report by the European Federation of Concrete Associations (EFCA), waterproofed concrete structures require 30% less frequent repairs compared to non-waterproofed structures. This shows how waterproofing can not only increase the longevity of the car park but also reduce maintenance costs over the structures service life.
4. Reduces Maintenance Costs
Waterproofing a car park reduces the amount of maintenance required over the structures service life. A study by the Concrete Society, states waterproofed structures experience 60% fewer maintenance issues compared to non-waterproofed structures. Water damage can cause a host of issues which will require repairs to be carried out. Typical car park repairs include; sealing cracks in parking decks, addressing corrosion and resurfacing degraded concrete. The National Association of Corrosion Engineers (NACE) reports corrosion repair costs can be up to 25% of the total maintenance budget for concrete structures. Waterproofing minimises these problems, by preventing water infiltration. This leads to fewer maintenance works which in turn will lower the associated maintenance costs. A report by the International Parking Institute found waterproofing can reduce annual maintenance costs by up to 40%. This highlights the significant financial benefit received from car park waterproofing for both owners and operators. Good waterproofing will keep parking facilities operational, minimise downtime and reduce maintenance costs.
5. Enhances Aesthetic Appearance
A well-maintained car park with effective waterproofing looks more attractive. A study by the Building Research Establishment found waterproofed car parks have 70% fewer visible stains and efflorescence (a white, powdery deposit on concrete) compared to non-waterproofed car parks. Water stains, mould, mildew, and efflorescence can make a car park look neglected and unattractive. The National Association of Building Sciences reports mould and mildew growth can be reduced by up to 80% with proper waterproofing measures. Waterproofing helps to prevent these issues by preventing water from penetrating the structure and causing unsightly damage. An attractive car park elevates the overall user experience and can be crucial for commercial properties where the appearance directly impacts customer satisfaction. According to a survey by the International Council of Shopping Centers, 65% of customers are more likely to visit well-maintained facilities, including car parks. By waterproofing a car park with an aesthetically pleasing system, the user experience and value of the building can be increased.
6. Prevents Concrete Degradation
Concrete degradation is the process by which concrete deteriorates due to environmental factors, chemical reactions, and physical stresses, leading to a reduction in its strength, durability, and overall structural integrity. Concrete degradation is a frequent problem in car parks exposed to water. A study by the American Concrete Institute found water infiltration can lead to a 30% increase in concrete spalling and cracking over a five year period. When water penetrates concrete, it can cause deterioration. The deterioration is caused through processes such as freeze-thaw cycles, alkali-silica reaction, and sulphate attack. Research by the National Research Council of Canada suggests freeze-thaw cycles can reduce concrete strength by up to 25%. This can lead to cracking, spalling, and weakening of the concrete structure. Applying a waterproofing membrane to a car park creates a protective barrier which prevents water from reaching the concrete. This preserves the strength and durability of the concrete. According to the Journal of Construction Engineering and Management, concrete structures with waterproofing display a 50% reduction in spalling and cracking in comparison to those with no waterproofing. Car park waterproofing prevents concrete degradation, which enhances the structural performance and lifespan of the car park structure.

What Are Car Park Waterproofing Systems?
Car park waterproofing systems are specialised materials which are designed to prevent water infiltration into parking structures. These systems normally include; waterproof membranes, sealants, coatings, drainage solutions and line marking for parking bays. These deck systems are used to protect the concrete and steel components of a car park from water damage, corrosion, and deterioration. The reasons car park waterproofing systems are used to provide this protection is to enhance the durability, safety, and longevity of the parking facility.
Car park waterproofing systems are vital for maintaining the structural integrity and safety of parking facilities. Car park deck waterproofing systems often used include; liquid-applied membranes and mastic asphalt. Waterproofing systems also include drainage solutions which make sure water is efficiently moved away from important areas. All of these waterproofing systems can significantly increase the lifespan of a parking structure by reducing the probability of issues such as concrete degradation. Waterproofing also reduces many maintenance issues. By preventing problems such as spalling, cracking, and corrosion, maintenance costs are significantly reduced. Investing in waterproofing not only protects the physical structure of the car park but also improves safety and aesthetic appeal.
What Are The Different Types Of Car Park Waterproofing Systems?
The different types of car park waterproofing systems are liquid-applied membranes, mastic asphalt and cementitious waterproofing. There are some other systems used but these four car park waterproofing systems are used for the majority of car parks in the UK. These methods are favoured for their durability and proven performance of preventing water infiltration. Below we will look at each of these car park systems in more detail.
- Liquid-Applied Membranes
- Mastic Asphalt
- Cementitious Waterproofing
1. Liquid-Applied Membranes
Liquid-applied membranes are cost effective, durable and versatile type of car park waterproofing system. These waterproof membranes are applied in a liquid state. The majority of these liquid systems are cold applied, this means no hot works are required. The liquid nature of these membranes allow for a seamless and fully adhered barrier when cured. According to a study by the American Concrete Institute, liquid-applied membranes are capable of extending the lifespan of concrete structures by up to 50%. Liquid systems can be used on various surfaces, including; concrete, metal, and wood.
Polyurethane coatings, a type of liquid-applied membrane, are known for being highly elastic and able to accommodate structural movement. This is highlighted by research from the National Roofing Contractors Association shows polyurethane coatings have an elongation rate of up to 600%. Another liquid applied membrane is polyurea which is renowned for having exceptional durability and resistance to environmental factors. Studies published in the Journal of Protective Coatings & Linings indicate polyurea coatings keep their integrity and flexibility even after prolonged exposure to UV radiation and harsh weather conditions. Under this exposure polyurea coatings keep over 95% of their initial tensile strength. Further research from the International Journal of Adhesion and Adhesives, shows polyurea waterproofing provides superior abrasion resistance and chemical stability. This makes polyurea coatings ideal for protecting car park surfaces against wear and tear, oil spills, and other common contaminants. These properties ensure car park structures with polyurea remain protected and functional for extended periods. This long lasting performances significantly reducing maintenance costs and enhancing safety. Both polyurea and polyurethane have excellent crack bridging capabilities.
All cold applied liquid membranes offer minimal disruption during application, a seamless durable finish, excellent capability to manage complex details and a cost effective price point. For these reasons cold applied liquid membranes have massively grown in popularity, making them the system of choice for new build car parks, interior decks, repairs and car park refurbishment projects.
2. Mastic Asphalt
Mastic asphalt is a durable, highly effective and time-tested car park waterproofing system. Mastic asphalt is a type of asphalt which contains a high proportion of bitumen, this gives it excellent waterproofing properties. Mastic asphalt requires skilled labour, it is normally applied as a hot molten liquid and is finished with a non slip surface. When cooled mastic asphalt creates a seamless, hard-wearing surface often favoured for rooftop car parks. A study by the Asphalt Institute found mastic asphalt provides a waterproofing effectiveness of up to 99.9%. Mastic asphalt is known for its longevity and resistance to mechanical damage, making it suitable for areas constantly exposed to the demands of heavy traffic such as loading bays and busy car park decks. According to a report by the Building Research Establishment, mastic asphalt can last up to 50 years with minimal maintenance, making it a cost-effective solution for long-term waterproofing. Additionally, the National Asphalt Pavement Association notes mastic asphalt surfaces can withstand loads of up to 20,000 pounds per square inch (137,895 kilopascals), demonstrating its robustness and suitability for high-stress environments like car parks. All of these benefits especially, durability and longevity, lead to mastic asphalt being a leading choice for car park waterproofing and desk systems despite the high initial cost.
3. Cementitious Waterproofing
Cementitious waterproofing involves the application of a cement-based waterproof coating to car park surfaces. Cementitious waterproofing is easy to apply and has excellent compatibility with concrete substrates. According to the International Concrete Repair Institute, cementitious coatings can reduce water permeability in concrete by up to 90%. Cementitious coatings are mixed on-site and applied using brushes, rollers, or spray equipment. Cementitious coatings form a rigid, durable barrier which is highly resistant to water ingress, de-icing salts and attack from harsh chemicals. Research by the Portland Cement Association found cementitious coatings can withstand pH levels ranging from 3 to 11. This makes cementitious coatings highly resistant to a variety of chemical exposures.
Cementitious waterproofing is particularly effective in protecting against moisture penetration. Studies from the National Association of Corrosion Engineers (NACE) found a 50% reduction in moisture ingress when cementitious coatings are applied. Cementitious coatings are often combined with other waterproofing systems to enhance overall performance. The ability of cementitious coatings to bond with a concrete substrate makes it a reliable choice for car park waterproofing. The reason for this is cementitious coatings ensure a seamless integration with the existing concrete structure.
These three systems cover the most common types of waterproofing for car parks. The reason these three systems lead the way is due to their proven effectiveness and adaptability to meet the demands of the modern car park. While there are other waterproofing solutions available, these remain the top choices for ensuring long-lasting protection against water damage.

How Do You Waterproof A Car Park?
Waterproofing a car park is essential to protect the structure from water damage, extend its lifespan, and ensure the safety of its users. Below we detail how to waterproof a car park, using two of the most effective methods: cold-applied liquid waterproofing and mastic asphalt. We give a step-by-step guide explanation of both methods to help you better understand the process of car park waterproofing.
Waterproofing Car Parks With A Liquid Applied Membrane
Cold-applied liquid membnanes offer a versatile and effective solution for car park waterproofing. Liquid membranes offer a seamless and versatile waterproofing barried which can be applied in various weather conditions. Below is a detailed guide on the steps involved in waterproofing a car park with cold-applied liquid membranes.
In this guide, we will be using DUROGLASS FU RAPID for priming, STARFLEX HR as the waterproofing membrane, and POLISTAR E/P or POLISTAR E/2 for the top coat.
- Surface Preparation
- Priming
- Membrane Application
- Additional Layers and Detailing
- Inspection and Repairs
- Protective Top Coat (Optional)
- Regular Maintenance
1. Surface Preparation
- Cleaning: Begin by thoroughly cleaning the surface of the car park to remove all dirt, debris, and any existing coatings or sealants. This can be achieved through water jetting or air blowing and brushing. The surface must be dry and free from any materials which could impair the adhesion of the waterproofing membrane.
- Repairing: Repair any cracks, holes, or damaged areas in the concrete. Surface irregularities must be addressed through planing. Planing is the process of removing layers or uneven sections of a surface to create a smoother, more even finish. This is often done using specialised machinery, such as a planer or milling machine to create a smooth base which will support an even application of the membrane. The final step of surface preparation is to ensure the substrate has a good key base for adhesion to the membrane.
2. Priming
- Application of Primer: Apply DUROGLASS FU RAPID, a water-based, rapid two-component modified epoxy DPM primer designed for gaining adhesion on humid substrates up to 10 bar of back-pressure. This primer solves humidity problems, allowing safe application for all kinds of flooring. It cures rapidly, allowing overcoating within hours, even in cold temperatures (4 hours at 6°C, 75% RH). It can be used for scratch coats or roller applications and has a low VOC. The consumption rate is 0.300-0.500 kg/m² per coat. Ensure areas with greater absorption rates are treated again.
3. Membrane Application
- First Layer Application: Apply STARFLEX HR, a rapid curing pure polyurea two-component 100% solids elastomeric, fast hardening with a very fast attainment of the final mechanical characteristics. It can be applied on vertical surfaces and ceilings, and it works well even at very low temperatures and high humidity. This product can only be applied by spraying devices with two-component airless pumping units equipped with a mixing gun. The equipment must pre-heat the separate components to at least 65-75°C. The best results are obtained with pressures of at least 190-210 Bar and material temperatures of 75°C with heated feeding pipes for the spray gun.
- Curing: Allow the first layer to cure as per the manufacturer’s instructions. Curing times can vary based on ambient temperature and humidity.
4. Additional Layers and Detailing
- Subsequent Layers: If the product requires, apply additional layers once the previous layer has cured adequately. Multiple layers can enhance the membrane's durability and effectiveness.
- Detailing: Pay special attention to areas around drains, edges, and upstands. These areas might require additional membrane material or specific detailing products to ensure full coverage and protection.
5. Inspection and Repairs
- Quality Inspection: After the membrane has cured, inspect the entire surface for any imperfections or areas of insufficient coverage.
- Touch-ups: Perform any necessary repairs or touch-ups. This may include applying more membrane material to areas which did not receive adequate coverage.
6. Protective Top Coat (Optional)
- Top Coat Application: Apply a top coat like POLISTAR E/P, a two-component elastic polyurethane-based UV-resistant, anti-skid, and wear-resistant protective coating. The top coat can be applied manually at a rate of 0.15-0.25 kg/m² per coat. For enhanced anti-slip properties, add 0.1-0.3 mm quartz to the product or broadcast 0.1-0.5 mm quartz on the first of the two top coats. Ensure the second coat is applied within 48 hours. Alternatively, use POLISTAR E/2, a two-component polyurethane-based UV-resistant, anti-skid, and wear-resistant protective coating, with a consumption of 0.150 kg/m². The overcoating should be applied within 3-4 hours maximum after applying STARFLEX HR.
7. Regular Maintenance
- Maintenance Checks: Regular maintenance is crucial to ensure the longevity of the waterproofing membrane. Schedule periodic inspections and quickly address any signs of damage or wear.
Cold-applied liquid membranes are popular for car park waterproofing due to their ease of application, effectiveness, and adaptability to different weather conditions. Liquid membranes create a seamless barrier against water ingress, protecting the structure from damage and corrosion.
Waterproofing Car Parks With Mastic Asphalt
Mastic asphalt is a highly durable and effective waterproofing material, ideal for car parks exposed to heavy traffic and varying weather conditions. Its robust nature and seamless application make it a preferred choice for creating a long-lasting, watertight barrier. Below is a detailed guide on the steps involved in waterproofing a car park with mastic asphalt.
For this example, we are waterproofing an uninsulated roof top parking deck of a multi-storey car park.
- Surface Preparation
- Priming
- Laying the Glass Fibre Tissue Separating Membrane
- Applying Roofing Grade Mastic Asphalt
- Applying Paving Grade Mastic Asphalt
- Skid Resistance
- Detailing
- Cooling and Setting
- Protective Top Coat (Optional)
- Quality Inspection
- Regular Maintenance
1. Surface Preparation
- Cleaning: Thoroughly clean the car park surface to remove dirt, debris, and any substances which may hinder adhesion. This can be done using water jetting, air blowing, and brushing. It is essential the surface is dry and free of any materials, such as oil or grease, which could affect the asphalt's bonding ability.
- Repairing: Address any cracks, holes, or uneven areas. This might include filling cracks with an appropriate filler and planing the substrate. Ensuring a smooth and even surface is crucial for the effective application of mastic asphalt. This is done to to avoid any weaknesses in the waterproofing layer. Finally, it should be made sure the substrate has a good key base to guarantee good adhesion to the membrane.
2. Priming
- Application of Primer: Apply a bitumen-based primer to the entire surface to enhance the bonding of the mastic asphalt. The primer should be applied evenly to ensure complete coverage. Follow the manufacturer's instructions regarding the application rate and drying time. The primer acts as a bonding agent, helping to seal the surface and promote adhesion between the substrate and the mastic asphalt.
3. Laying the Fibreglass Tissue Separating Membrane
- Laying: Upon the primed surface a 10mm roofing underlay on fibreglass tissue should be laid. This serves as a separating membrane. The benefit of this 10mm roofing underlay on fibreglass tissue being laid is it prevents adhesion, serves as a moisture barrier, protects the substrate from high temperatures and enhances the durability of the waterproofing system by allowing for movement.
4. Applying Roofing Grade Mastic Asphalt
- First Layer: Apply one or two coats of roofing grade mastic asphalt. Each coat should be spread evenly to ensure a uniform layer. This forms the initial waterproofing barrier.
5. Applying Paving Grade Mastic Asphalt
- Paving Coat: Apply one coat of paving grade mastic asphalt. This layer includes 30% grit for added hardness. While 40% grit can be used for areas with high demands, such as loading bays with pallet trucks, it can be challenging to achieve a proper seal. Ensure the paving grade asphalt is applied smoothly and compactly.
6. Skid Resistance
- Crimp Roller: Use a crimp roller after applying the paving grade asphalt to provide skid resistance and prevent slipping in icy conditions. This eliminates the need for an additional anti-slip coating.
7. Detailing
- Upstand Margin: Apply a 100mm wide margin of roofing grade mastic asphalt between the parking deck and concrete/brickwork upstand.
- Angle Fillet: Add an additional angle fillet to create a watertight seal between the car park deck and upstand after the paving grade asphalt is laid.
- Upstand Application: Apply mastic asphalt to a minimum height of 150mm, with a thickness of 20mm, using three coats. This upstand should be tucked into a 25mm x 25mm chase cut into the concrete or brickwork.
8. Cooling and Setting
- Curing Time: Allow the asphalt to cool and set properly. The setting time can vary, but it typically takes a few hours for the surface to be ready for pedestrian traffic and longer for vehicular use. Proper curing is essential to achieve the full strength and durability of the mastic asphalt.
9. Quality Inspection
- Inspection: Once the mastic asphalt has cooled and set, inspect the surface for any imperfections or weak spots. Check that the thickness is consistent and the surface is completely sealed. Any areas that do not meet the required standards should be repaired immediately.
10. Applying A Protective Finish (Optional)
- Protective Layer: Depending on the expected traffic and environmental conditions, a protective finish like a sealing coat may be applied. This helps to protect the asphalt from wear and tear and can extend its lifespan. The protective finish can also enhance the appearance of the car park and provide additional UV and chemical resistance.
11. Maintenance
- Regular Checks and Maintenance: Regularly inspect the surface for signs of wear or damage. Mastic asphalt is durable, but like all materials, it benefits from maintenance to prevent major repairs. Schedule periodic inspections and carry out any necessary maintenance to ensure the longevity of the waterproofing system.
This process ensures a car park is effectively waterproofed with mastic asphalt. Mastic asphalt is a highly durable and long-lasting car park waterproofing solution. The total thickness of rooftop car park decks is normally 40mm, while loading bays typically require a thickness of 45-50mm due to the higher demands on the surface. Mastic asphalt is especially favoured for its robust nature and ability to form a seamless, watertight layer which is ideal for car park decks exposed to heavy demands.
