Frequently Asked Questions

What is balcony and breezeway waterproofing?

It’s a waterproofing system installed beneath walking surfaces such as decks, balconies, or breezeways to help prevent water from penetrating the structure below.

Where can this type of waterproofing be used?

It’s ideal for multifamily buildings, apartments, and condominiums where balconies and walkways are exposed to rain or frequent washing.

Is the membrane walkable?

The membrane itself is not intended as the final surface; it should be covered with a compatible deck coating, topping, or finished surface per TAMKO’s application instructions.

How does balcony and breezeway waterproofing differ from standard underlayments?

Standard underlayments protect beneath roofing materials, while balcony and breezeway systems are engineered for horizontal applications that experience direct water exposure and foot traffic.

Do TAMKO® waterproofing products include a warranty?

Yes. TAMKO® waterproofing products are covered under TAMKO’s Limited Warranty. See tamko.com/limitedwarranties for full details.
