FAKE WATERPROOFING IS FLOODING - BE CAREFUL, YOU WILL LOSE MONEY AND GET DISEASES

When the house is leaking, everyone wants to find a reputable waterproofing unit, quality materials and reasonable prices. But the reality is not simple. In the current market, fake waterproofing is becoming more and more sophisticated, causing many customers to "lose money and suffer". In this article, we will point out the 5 most popular types of waterproofing today so that you can easily.

1. Using Poor Quality Materials - Good Shell, Bad Core

One of the common tricks is to put fake goods in the real product's packaging. Genuine waterproof glue boxes are counterfeited down to the stamps and barcodes. But inside is cheap glue, low adhesion, quickly peeling off after only a few rainy seasons.

recognize and be alert.

Signs:

- The packaging looks new but the ink is blurred, the seal is broken, and the QR code is unclear.

- Unusually low price compared to the market.

- When construction is completed, the surface quickly changes color, blisters, and cracks.

2. Poor Construction, Beautifying the Exterior - No Interior Treatment

Some fraudulent waterproofing construction teams only "put lipstick on" the surface. They ignore the root treatment steps: do not chisel and clean the old mortar, do not pour the baseboard, do not treat cracks... causing the waterproofing to only last a few months.

Be careful when:

- They promise to "finish it in 1 day".

- No before - during - after construction photos.

- No clear process, no written warranty.

3. Dilute Materials – Cut Back to Increase Profits

Another trick is to dilute the glue, paint or waterproofing membrane with water or cheap solvents to save costs. This causes the waterproofing layer to lose its adhesion, not have the right thickness and quickly deteriorate.

How to know:

- The material has a pungent smell, thinner than usual.

- Finished but the coating is thin and easy to peel off.

- Do not let customers check the product during construction.

4. Borrowing the Name of a Big Brand - But Not an Official Dealer

Some small waterproofing teams borrow the names of big brands like Sika, Kova... to gain trust. But in fact, they are not official partners, are not technically trained, and perform construction contrary to the company's instructions.

Be careful with:

- No contract, only verbal notice.

- No manufacturer warranty provided.

- No documents proving that you are an authorized agent/unit.

5. Extremely Cheap - So Cheap It's Unreasonable

If you receive a waterproofing quote that is 30-50% cheaper than the market, question it immediately. Usually, the low price comes with:

- Fake material.

- Reduce mass.

- Improper handling technique.

Consequence:

- Re-absorbent after 3 - 6 months.

- Repair costs double or triple the original.

- There is a risk of structural damage.

Waterproofing is a category that requires proper investment, proper techniques and genuine materials. Don't let fake waterproofing models fool you with their clean and beautiful appearance at first. Choose an experienced unit, transparent construction, clear quotes and reputable warranties to protect your home for a long time.
