The main task of builders in the construction of the roof is to protect it from the destructive effects of precipitation. Bituminous mastic for roof waterproofing will help ensure water resistance. This is an oil-based binder mixture that has many advantages in use, and is made in different forms for ease of application.
The use of bituminous insulation has become popular in the following areas of roofing:
By applying mastic during the construction of the roof, the specialist creates a reliable roofing carpet that can withstand large temperature fluctuations and remain elastic for many years.
Waterproofing bituminous mastic has the form of a paste that is ready for use, but there are also compounds that need to be prepared immediately before work. They include:
Special additives are made on the basis of synthetic resins, which increase the astringent properties of the product.
Bituminous mastic for roof waterproofing has a huge number of advantages:
Depending on the characteristics of waterproofing materials, they are conventionally divided into different types:
The most common material for waterproofing roofs, foundations or other parts of the structure is bituminous mastic. Bituminous mastic is made on the basis of solid or semi-solid petroleum bitumen. Astringent, may have a different color, traditionally black. We will tell our readers about what bituminous mastic is for waterproofing roofs, who produces and how much the material costs, how to choose for do-it-yourself work.
Bituminous mastic contains binders based on bituminous solid and semi-solid resins. The composition from different manufacturers may include fillers, various solvents and other additives.
Bituminous waterproofing is used for coating various surfaces. The protective layer when coated with your own hands is no worse than a membrane or film. When fastening rolled roofing materials, bituminous mastic is also used as an adhesive composition. The composition does not need to be additionally heated or diluted; after purchase, it is simply applied to a previously prepared roof surface.
Roofing bituminous mastic has a different color, and the coloring can take place directly at the factory where the waterproofing is made, or at the construction site.
Mastic is used not only as a waterproofing, but also during the repair of an old dilapidated roof. With the help of liquid waterproofing mastic, the following works can be carried out:
Companies are constantly improving bituminous mastic and a modern product has high waterproofing properties and bio-resistance.
Types of bituminous mastic for roofing
Bituminous waterproofing of the roof is divided according to GOST into types:
Among all types, hot-applied bituminous mastic is in special demand. It quickly hardens, although it is unsafe to apply it with your own hands, since its temperature can reach 150-170 ° C. Hot-use bituminous mastic is applied, preheated on a gas burner to 170 °. The work is carried out with a wide spatula in protective gloves and shoes.
Polymeric bituminous protective compounds are simply poured onto the surface to be protected and leveled easily with their own hands.
According to GOSTs, bituminous mastic is evaluated in accordance with the qualities:
Not all types of modern compositions meet the requirements stated in GOSTs; waterproofing for roofing is bituminous rubber aquamast from TechnoNIKOL. The composition resembles liquid rubber, has high quality indicators, and is easy to apply when cold.
It is not difficult to insulate a new roof or repair an old one using TechnoNIKOL bituminous mastic with your own hands. For work, there is no need to know any subtleties, just read the instructions that are on each TechnoNIKOL can.
The main advantages of applying TechnoNIKOL bituminous mastic include:
All technical characteristics in high-quality bituminous mastic should be described on the packaging, if this is not the case, then you have a fake made of cheap resins. It is better to refrain from buying such waterproofing, even if the price is low.
Price and a well-known brand do not always indicate the quality of products. Therefore, when choosing, it is worth relying not only on these criteria. It is worth evaluating the purchase in a complex way:
The most inexpensive and low consumption are hot bituminous mastics. They are more difficult to apply, but in terms of their characteristics, they are the golden mean in terms of price / quality ratio. These include the compositions of TechnoNIKOL for construction purposes MBU, MBI, MBH.
Rubber cold bituminous mastic for roofing aquamast is easier to apply and we recommend using a similar composition for do-it-yourself work. TechnoNIKOL aquamast is produced specifically for roofing, foundations and waterproofing. For gluing rolled waterproofing, TechnoNIKOL offers customers to use aquamast cold applied mastic for gluing.
The price of hot bituminous mastic from TechnoNIKOL starts from 350 rubles, liquid from 700 rubles. More details on the price of various bituminous waterproofing from TechnoNIKOL are indicated in the table:
The price of the composition largely depends on the size of the purchase, so wholesale starts from 30 buckets. For small repairs, you can buy small containers from 3 liters.
The most inexpensive are building brands MBU and MBI. The material is oil based and takes a long time to dry. It must be applied to the underground part of the building. MBH is considered the most economical option, but in terms of its functionality and range of use it is not inferior to more expensive brands.
TechnoNIKOL recommends using a separate brand of the Aquamast line to solve the problem in each specific case. Among the various analogues in the construction market, Aquamast is in first place in all respects. You can learn more about Aquamast in the video:
Which one is right for you, you need to decide in each case individually, starting from the possibilities and tasks.
Bituminous mastic for roof waterproofing - price analysis, which one is better to buy and consumption
Mastic roofs - they are also called "bulk" - have long established themselves in the construction markets. The final technological characteristics are affected by the additives used, the preparation process, the solvents or emulsifiers used and the stabilizers (depending on the composition of the mastics).
Roof covered with mastic
The basis of mastic roofs is bitumen filled with polymers, due to which the material acquires improved properties of waterproofing, heat and frost resistance, and elasticity. By itself, bitumen is a product of oil refining. To improve the properties and reduce the cost of bitumen, peat chips, asbestos, slag or wood flour are found as thickeners in the composition. According to their composition, the division of mastics can be made into one- and two-component. In the first case, the properties of the material appear after the evaporation of water or solvent, in the second, a hardener has to be added.
Mastic can be laid as an independent roofing material, with its help they carry out repairs, prepare the base for soft roofing materials, or perform attic waterproofing.
According to the method of application, mastics are divided into hot and cold. The former are used only after heating to a certain temperature, when the second type of mastic can be used without preheating.
Important: Work with a self-leveling roof is best done in dry weather. The base surface must not be wet. Otherwise, the adjunction of the mastic will not be complete, which will lead to a loss of waterproofing qualities.
Advantages of roofing based on mastic:
The advantages of cold mastic roofs also include low fire risk, environmental friendliness and low labor costs. But compared to hot mastic, they have a higher material consumption.
The service life of mastic roofs is up to 15 years.
By appointment, mastic materials can be:
They are the most common. They got this name because of the application technology. Before starting work, the mastic is heated to the desired temperature. The peculiarity of its application is the preliminary preparation of the base. It needs to be primed. Cooking can cause difficulties, because the mastics contain oil or mixed bitumen of different grades. But the fact that they quickly harden without shrinkage can be a plus. In addition, such mastics can be used at negative temperatures, and they are inexpensive. The main disadvantages: labor costs and inconvenience of work, the risk of burns and fires.
Bituminous mastics (without the use of polymers) are used for construction work with the foundation. It is not recommended to use as a roofing coating due to possible temperature changes.
By adding waste rubber in the form of crumbs to the bituminous mastic, manufacturers get an improved material - bitumen-rubber mastic. In the technical characteristics, the softening point, viscosity, water resistance, plasticity increase. Such a composition is produced exclusively in special factories.
Bitumen-rubber mastics are used in the installation of rolled and mastic roofs, as well as for gluing building materials.
Bitumen-polyethylene mastic is obtained by adding wax (low molecular weight polyethylene) to the bitumen. Such mastic can be obtained independently at the construction site, while the mixture must be heated to approximately 160-1800C.
Polymer-bitumen, although it does not differ in durability and waterproofing from bituminous mastics, has advantages in heat resistance, bonding properties, and elasticity. It does not contain additives, so it is easier to prepare. It is used for gluing layers of rolled roofs and waterproofing, for the manufacture of asphalt materials and products (for example, slabs); for cast plaster waterproofing. This mastic material is the most common.
Polymer mastics are the most expensive material in comparison with the rest. As their additional advantages, one can name a high degree of waterproofing, resistance to mechanical damage and exposure to ultraviolet radiation. Due to its high performance, the roofing will last at least 20 years.
The base of the roof is prepared in advance, then a protective layer is applied by hot spraying, which forms a waterproof film for subsequent layers. Mastic roofs differ depending on the design by:
With a flat roof (slope no more than 2.5%), installation is carried out with minimal labor costs. Reinforcement in this case is not used, because the hot mastic is evenly distributed over the surface.
A slope of 2.5 to 10% will complicate the process of installing hot mastic. It is better to use reinforcing materials to avoid dripping of the mastic before it hardens completely.
With a slope of 10-15%, double reinforcement is used with sprinkling with mineral substances. Moreover, the mastic is applied in 2 layers.
For a slope of 15-25%, the mastic is laid in 3 layers, providing double reinforcement. Above - a protective coating in the form of painting.
With a slope of more than 25%, the use of rolled or mastic materials is not recommended.
When using cold mastics, the risk of burns and fires is eliminated. The application process is more convenient and reduces labor costs.
To obtain cold mastics, the original bitumen is treated with a solvent (most often volatile) that evaporates upon application, after which it becomes mobile enough to work in a cold or slightly heated state. The result is a monolithic layer of waterproofing.
Cold mastics are prepared in mechanized plants by mixing asbestos, lime or cement and a solvent. They meet all the requirements for hot mastics. Store them in a closed container. Stir before use. Such mastic can also be used in the cold season, but if the air temperature is below 50C, then it must be heated to 700C.
Mastic based on liquefied bitumen is used for waterproofing, during the installation and repair of mastic roofing, as well as when working with shingles and other building materials. One layer dries in 12-24 hours, and gains its properties after 7 days.
Mastics based on emulsified bitumen are used for the installation of non-rolled waterproofing. Thanks to its water base, it is non-toxic, fireproof, dries faster (no more than 1 hour) and has better penetrating properties. This mastic can be used indoors. Due to the use of water as a solvent, the cost of such mastic is low.
The disadvantages of such mastic is that it should not be allowed to be stored at temperatures below + 50C. The use of emulsion mastic at low temperatures is also not allowed. This is due to the property of water to change the state of aggregation. The emulsion breaks down and its further use becomes impossible.
The production of such mastics is based on the property of bitumen to pass into water in the presence of emulsifiers into a finely dispersed state.
Emulsion mastic can be used as a base for installation and repair of rolled and mastic roofing, waterproofing in rooms, as well as for work with roofing where the fire laying method is not allowed (for example, power plants), installation of tray or roofs with complex geometry.
In European countries, emulsion bituminous materials have been used for over 60 years. Solvent-based mastics are prohibited in some countries.
Emulsion mastic after application undergoes a decomposition process, in which water evaporates, and bitumen is distributed over the surface and fixed on it.
Mastic for soft roofing: repair, waterproofing, sealing, etc.
- This is a homogeneous plastic substance made on the basis of bitumen and various additives that improve its properties. It has excellent physical and chemical characteristics, which make it an ideal waterproofing and adhesive material. After being applied to the surface, the mastic quickly hardens.
Bituminous mastics are used in any field of construction, covering most surfaces with them, including their use:
With bituminous mastic for roofing, you can quickly and efficiently seal the surface, without the use of equipment. Mastic can be applied to any cleaned and even roof surface.
Brief instruction-reminder:
Roofing with bituminous mastic:
Roofs treated with mastic have a long service life. If she still needs repairs, it will be very easy to repair the roof.
To repair the roof with bituminous mastic, the following work is carried out:
Mastic for roofing material is one of the most reliable methods of its fastening. Mastic helps to securely fasten the roofing felt to the roof, remove air pockets. The surface of the roof is smooth and perfectly withstands loads. Suitable for hot and cold mastic.
To protect structures in the ground from moisture, waterproofing mastic is used. She waterproofs bathrooms, pipelines, arranges seamless waterproofing coatings in basements, wells and pools.
Buildings treated with bituminous mastic for waterproofing acquire protection from fire.
For all types of waterproofing, one cannot do without mastic made from petroleum bitumen, to which organic and mineral solvents and fillers are added.
This mastic is the best waterproofing material due to the following properties:
The foundation is treated in several layers with bituminous mastic from all sides, making it completely hydrolyzed. The cheapest coating is with hot bitumen, but it is more difficult to work with it. To avoid difficulties, it is better to choose a cold bituminous mastic with organic solvents (polymer). To work with it, you only need brushes and a spatula.
To process the inside of the foundation, water-based mastic is used. It has a neutral smell and dries quickly. In industrial construction, bitumen-latex emulsions are applied mechanically.
Waterproofing the foundation with mastic is carried out using brushes, rollers, any tools that can be used to apply the composition to the surface. The mastic is applied in two layers, maintaining a technological pause between them. Its value depends on the characteristics of the composition.
On the video - how to properly waterproof the foundation with bituminous mastic:
For floor protection devices, modern bituminous mastic is often used. It is non-toxic and dries quickly. Bitumen mastic for the floor does not emit unpleasant odors. Most often it is used for waterproofing the bathroom.
For fixing parquet floors on concrete or cement-sand screeds, cold mastics are used:
The use of cold mastics is due to the fact that their setting is slow, which allows you to accurately connect the strips into a ridge and groove. On bituminous mastic, you can lay parquet with an oblique edge.
Bituminous mastic MBU is used for wood processing. Especially important is the processing of wooden surfaces that are buried in the ground. If the mastic is very thick, it is heated with the lid open and thoroughly mixed after that.
Each type of linoleum is put on "its" mastic:
Gluing linoleum to mastic
When laying laminate on bituminous mastic, the floor is warm, sound and moisture insulated. Equip it in the same way as when laying parquet.
For metal and automobiles, bitumen-polymer and rubber-bitumen mastics are most suitable. It perfectly protects the car, but before processing, the metal must be cleaned of dirt and rust, washed and dried.
Although concrete is a monolithic product with increased strength, it always has microcracks and small pores through which water easily seeps through. Because of this, the reinforcement may rust over time, the foundation block may burst and sink into the ground. Therefore, concrete structures are treated with bituminous mastic, which reliably protects all cracks, pores and interpanel seams.
To do this, use various mastics made from:
Commercially available hot bituminous or cold mastics can be used to seal joints in concrete pavements. They withstand more than 200 defrosting and freezing cycles.
Bituminous mastic for bridge expansion joints:
To repair asphalt and seal the roadway, special mastics are used. They withstand strong compression and stretching, have good adhesion, and can be used at low temperatures. Already an hour after the work, the road surface can be exploited.
To perform work on facing fireplaces and stoves, heat-resistant bitumen-polymer mastic is used. It withstands temperatures up to +1200 °C and above. It dries quickly, does not emit odor, and prevents the development of fungi and mold. It is a heat-resistant, reliable, durable, bactericidal adhesive material.
To seal the pool, thiokols and rubber-bitumen mastics are most often used. Mastics harden right in the seam and eventually turn into an elastic black sealant. To fill the seams use a pneumatic syringe with replaceable cartridges.
Application of special mastic on the bottom and walls of the pool
Recently, bituminous mastic began to securely attach polystyrene sheets to metal, concrete, expanded clay, brick and wood. During work, vertical sheets of expanded polystyrene are fixed with temporary supports for a reliable connection, and a load is placed on the horizontal sheets.
To create an effective waterproof layer, the bituminous mastic is vigorously mixed using a drill or mixer.
For ease of application and increase plasticity, you can heat it. Since the layer is elastic, it is better not to apply hot mastic on surfaces that are often subjected to strong mechanical stress. A hot solution penetrates into the pores better, as it has an increased fluidity and, therefore, adheres more strongly to the material being processed.
The preparation of hot mastic must be carried out, observing safety precautions. more beneficial for large scale projects. Cold mastic is sold ready for use, it is safe to use and more convenient. But it costs more than hot.
They work with bituminous mastic at air temperature from -10° to +50°C. The mastic itself should be heated in a water bath to +15 degrees and above.
When working with mastic, you need to be aware of its fire hazard and toxicity. It is forbidden to warm it up on an open fire, as well as store it near a source of fire. If work is carried out indoors, it is necessary to create ventilation.
Preparation of hot bituminous mastic:
Consumption of bituminous mastic per 1m? depends on its type. The consumption indicator depends on the type of material. Hot bituminous mastics do not decrease in thickness after hardening, therefore they are considered non-shrinking. To apply bituminous mastic in one layer with a thickness of 0.2 cm, it is required from 2.0 to 2.4 kg / m2.
An important characteristic of mastic consumption is the indicator of dry residue content. This is its amount that remains on the treated surface after it has dried and hardened. With a small dry residue, the consumption of the original mastic increases in order to form a film of a given thickness.
In the dry residue, to create a layer 2 mm thick, 3.4-3.8 kg / m? bituminous mastic. Most ready-to-use mastics have a solids content of 20 to 70 percent.
In order for the mastic to adhere well to the treated surface, it is necessary to carefully clean the treated area from all types of contaminants. After that, the finished surface is thoroughly dried and heated. Thanks to this approach, the mastic will be applied evenly and you can save on its consumption.
The most popular tool for applying it is a brush or roller. They apply mastic and apply it like ordinary paint, without rubbing strongly into the surface. After drying, re-processing is done.
Bituminous-latex compounds can be applied by machine airless spray. With this method, a uniform layer is obtained, and material consumption is low.
You can also apply the mastic using bulk application, for this it is poured onto the surface and leveled with scrapers, mops or long-handled rollers. Although with this method, productivity is higher, more material is consumed.
Bituminous mastic is diluted with white spirit, solvent, toluene or kerosene until the required consistency is formed. After that, it is thoroughly stirred.
A few more words about the basics of using bituminous mastics:
Today there is a huge choice of roofing materials, and their number is increasing every year. But there are a number of materials whose quality has been tested for a decade, and therefore, their popularity does not decrease. For example, roofing mastic remains in demand for flat or slightly sloped roofs. But its composition is also changing. The article will focus on the choice of roofing mastic and the method of its application.
The choice of materials for a flat roof is not so wide. This is a classic roofing material or modern rolled materials. If in the first case the work is rather laborious and complicated, then in the second it is expensive, requiring the use of special equipment. Against this background, the use of bituminous mastic for roof waterproofing looks very advantageous. It is easy to apply, creates a monolithic layer, and requires a minimum set of tools to work with it.
Tip: no matter how well a flat roof is made, it has bulges and depressions on the surface. In these places, the mastic layer should be thicker, since over time water will accumulate there, gradually destroying the coating.
Bituminous mastic is divided into several types depending on the composition and purpose.
In addition, roofing mastics are divided into two-component and one-component. If the latter are already on sale ready-made and all that is required to work with it is simply applied to the surface with a brush, then two-component ones must first be prepared. To do this, it is mixed in the required proportions indicated by the manufacturer on the label. Most often, the composition of roofing mastic implies the presence of components that, when combined, cannot be stored for a long time. Therefore, for high-quality waterproofing, it is recommended to choose two-component compositions.
Not without reason, bituminous mastics are still the most popular solution if you want to waterproof a flat roof. Especially when the work is planned to be carried out independently. The advantages include:
But, despite all the above positive qualities, it is necessary to mention the disadvantages:
Bituminous mastic of several dozens of manufacturers is presented on the market. All of them are similar in composition and are in approximately the same price category. Among them, there are several brands that have already successfully established themselves.
So, this company offers material:
First of all, it is necessary to rely on what kind of work will be carried out and in what conditions.
But no matter how high-quality and expensive the composition of roofing mastic is purchased, if the technology of its application is not followed, the operational period is significantly reduced. Depending on the angle of the roof, a different number of layers of mastic and special reinforcing pads are made:
Tip: in addition to independent use, roofing hot bituminous mastic can be used to fix modern rolled roofing for flat roofs.
In addition to the main roof area, there are several roofing elements that require additional layers. So, for high-quality insulation of valleys or overhangs, you need to apply an additional 2 layers with reinforcement. But at the junction of flat sections with vertical ones (walls, ventilation ducts, etc.), it is necessary not only to apply 2 more layers of bituminous mastic, but also pour fine gravel on top and completely drown it in it.
Mastic roofs can be divided into several types: reinforced unreinforced and combined. And also according to the method of using the composition for hot and cold. Roofing cold mastic incorporates organic solvents. This allows you to use it without heating, if the air temperature is not lower than +5 ° C. If such a composition also has polymer components, then this significantly improves its performance. Unlike it, hot roofing mastic requires preliminary heating on a portable burner to at least 150-160 ° C.
Tip: before applying bituminous mastic to the roof, you need to properly prime the surface with a waterproofing compound, for example, a primer.
Roofing mastic is a versatile and multifunctional material. It not only creates a high-strength and moisture-resistant coating on flat roofs, but also saves time and money on work.
One of the most important parts of the protection of any building from the external environment is the roof. It is subject to the influence of weather conditions and other atmospheric phenomena, therefore it is the high-quality roofing of the building that ensures the trouble-free operation of the building. Coating waterproofing is a simple but reliable roof covering. And performing work using bituminous mastic is a popular way to perform high-quality waterproofing.
One of the factory packaging
The mastic consists of a viscous soft substance with a rich dark color. Its composition includes bitumen with additional components. Quartz, lime, ash, mineral wool are used for filling. The filler provides the elasticity of the coating after hardening and prevents cracking during temperature changes. Bituminous mastic is used for roof repair and in other areas of construction.
Roofing mastic is intended for work with the roof of the building, its waterproofing.
The popularity of bituminous mastic provides a certain set of characteristics:
Bituminous mastics differ in the number of components in the composition: one-component and two-component. The one-component composition includes a solvent that evaporates after applying the layer. When the solvent evaporates, the composition on the surface of the soft becomes elastic and durable. Such mastics are available in ready-to-use form.
Two-component are available in two formulations that must be mixed. This allows you to change the properties of the material under real building conditions.
Depending on the application, cold and hot bituminous mastics are available on the market.
Remember that there are also latex and polymer-based mastics, combined types. The choice of combined options has both positive and negative features. For example, bitumen-polymer mastic has a significant drawback - it cannot be used in regions where the temperature drops below -20 degrees.
According to the diluent, mastics are divided into three types:
Water-based mastics are one of the environmentally friendly methods of waterproofing soft roofs, as they contain only natural ingredients, and the application process is safe for health.
Hot bitumen mastic is heated to 180 degrees before application. It hardens quickly due to the addition of a solvent to the hot mixture. When interacting with air and evaporating the solvent, the composition acquires elasticity and other characteristics necessary for operation. Working with such materials due to high temperatures is more laborious than when working with cold materials, moreover, it is unsafe and requires precautions.
Cold mastic hardens more slowly, but the application process is less laborious. In some types, a solvent is added before use. The use of this type of roofing at temperatures below 5 degrees Celsius requires preheating to forty - fifty degrees.
We add that this material is easy to use and does not require the use of sophisticated equipment or special professional skills.
Bitumen mastic is used as an independent coating for roof waterproofing on a rolled, steel, concrete or wooden base. These compositions are also used as a material for repair work and waterproofing of roof sections on which other (roll) materials cannot be used.
The larger the package volume, the cheaper the cost per literMastic roofing has a number of advantages over other insulators:
The service life of such a coating without repair work is from 10 to 15 years.
Bituminous roofs are made with or without reinforcement. An unreinforced roof is a coating in several layers. The bottom layer of bitumen emulsion serves as a waterproofing surface, and on top it is covered with hot mastic with the addition of gravel or mineral chips.
Reinforced consists of a kind of "carpet", which is made up by applying several layers in addition to the reinforcing material.
There is also a combined type, in which a certain amount of roll materials with hot mastic sizing is used. This allows the use of inexpensive bituminous mastic in the lower layers.
Bituminous mastic is suitable for waterproofing soft roofs. This is advantageous in that the material takes the form of a platform, even if it has small inconsistencies and irregularities. On a soft roof, after hardening, an elastic and hard surface with a high water-repellent effect is formed.
Work begins on a cement screed, coating with rolled material or other surfaces that are primed in advance with a bitumen-based liquid mortar. The joints with the drain and other surfaces are reinforced. At the same time, the slope of the slope of the soft roof is taken into account.

For a long and complete protection against water, choose products that are known for their high quality and have long established themselves in the building materials market.
There are standards by which the quality of bituminous mastic is evaluated. Technical standards and GOST put forward the following requirements:
If you focus on the price range, then when you look at the prices for cold and hot mastics, you will notice that the prices for hot formulations are higher than for cold ones. This is due to the fact that the first one contains additional components. However, hot compositions are consumed more economically, which is more profitable in large volumes. Therefore, select material such as, depending on your goals.
In contact with
Their structures are treated with bitumen. Although this material in its pure form has certain disadvantages - the material is quite difficult to apply, and under the influence of external temperature changes, its protective film may crack. The composition of modern bituminous mastics contains substances that increase the hardness and durability of the waterproofing outer coating.
Below we will consider in more detail the technical and operational properties of bitumen, as well as what technology must be followed when applied to the surface of this material.
Mastic- very plastic material. It has high astringent and waterproofing properties. In the main composition of the material, in addition to bitumen, there are astringent organic substances and mineral additives.
Mastics from companies such as Remmers Elastoplast and Bitumast are also in good demand.
This indicator is usually indicated on the packaging. If the expense is not specified, then you can easily calculate it yourself, based on the following recommendations:
Having considered the classification, we can say that there are two main ways of applying mastic: hot and cold. And cold bituminous mastic is applied manually and mechanically. Below we consider in more detail the methods of applying mastic:
For such work, only sprayers that mix the components inside the unit are suitable.
Below we consider the progress of work on waterproofing mastic bituminous roofing cold application:
Before applying the mastic, it is necessary to carry out a test to determine the degree of humidity of the base.
