TRANSCRIPT:
Hello viewers! This is Paul Evans from Findlay Evans Waterproofing and Liquid Rubber Melbourne.

We’re back again to share with you a little experience for a rooftop planting remediation job that we did. It’s not relatively our smallest job but it was fairly detailed and it was very critical that we got this right because it was leaking into a large administrative building in Sunshine that is used by a government department and we had to stop the water from leaking into the building.

This is was a torch applied sheet membrane that have been laid some years ago. It appears to be in reasonable condition. But on closer inspection, it shows that all the joints and junctions were leaking. And possibly due to continual expansion and contraction by heat and cold, the joints have let go and were allowing water to move into and under the sheet membrane. It was traveling quite some distance underneath the membrane because there was mild little residues underneath there.

Anyway, we went to great extent to clean it properly by peri washing it. Once it was peri washed, we allowed it to dry and came back the next day and then masked everything up. The plant equipment had to be masked so we wouldn’t [0:01:31.6].

Once it was all coated up, the boys set up their best to setup the rig which was there on the ground floor, quite a fair way away so we communicated by radio. We used headsets and transmitters to communicate between the spray rig and the applicators up in the plant area because they couldn’t see or hear each other so we have to communicate by radio. That was fine.

And then, they setup about spraying everything. They gave it a nice good coating of 1.500 micron thick and over coated the whole system making it water tight and everybody was happy.

Thanks for listening. Bye for now.
