Waterproofing & Concrete Protection Polymer For House Foundations Announced

Edco Technologies Inc. has announced the availability of its Ectoflex 647 product, a cementitious coating that can be used on homes to prevent salt and water infiltration.

With their Ectoflex 646 having been in use in the commercial high-rise construction and infrastructure industries for over 25 years, Edco Technologies has used their knowledge and technology to develop the Ectoflex 647, which is now available to homeowners who are looking to protect their homes from water damage.

Water and ice infiltration are among the most common causes of property damage and home insurance claims. According to the United States’ Insurance Information Institute, around 14,000 homeowners in America alone are affected by water damage each day, with the average claim valued at around $11,650.

Cracks and chipping in a home’s foundation can encourage water to enter, leading to fungal growth, structural damage, and flooding. To avoid the need for costly repairs, Edco Technologies says that homeowners should proactively inspect their homes for any defects. The company also suggests waterproofing the foundations as a preventative measure, and its Ectoflex 647 was developed for this purpose.

Intended for use on residential properties specifically, Ectoflex 647 is a flexible cementitious coating that will prevent water and salt penetration for many years, making it particularly suitable for coastal areas. While designed for foundations, Ectoflex 647 can also be used to fortify patios, pathways, stairs, and verandas; third-party testing has shown that 1 mm of the product offers protection equivalent to 10 mm of concrete.

Ectoflex 647 is easy to prepare - homeowners need only to remove gravel and other debris from the area, but Edco Technologies also recommends power washing the target surface before using the product. Once the area has been cleared, homeowners can combine the Ectoflex 647 polymer with the powder and mix the solution until the consistency resembles pancake batter. After the mixture is prepared, it can be applied using a brush or a roller; Edco Technologies suggests applying at least two thin coats for optimal results.
