Do you have a DIY concrete project that needs doing but you don’t know what concrete waterproofing products to use?
With spring approaching, now is a great time to get all your jobs done. However, deciding on the best concrete waterproofing product is important in ensuring the job is done right.
Water is one of the most detrimental causes of structural damage such as cracks, frost damage, algae growth, and salt corrosion. Once the concrete erodes and deteriorates, it can be very expensive to repair.
Therefore, a waterproofing concrete sealant needs to be applied to protect it.
Here, we’ll tell you the concrete waterproofing products that are the easiest to use and more importantly, will get the job done right.
How our concrete waterproofing products will help you
A concrete waterproofing sealer prevents cracks from forming; the more cracks that appear, the more water can get in.
The wear and tear of concrete will slowly show over time. But if the surface of the concrete starts to deteriorate, the inside structure may be as well.
This deterioration is what you want to avoid. Not only can this turn into a big job to fix, but a timely and costly one too.
Prevention is crucial, and using a waterproof sealant provides the answer.
Our concrete waterproofing products will help you:
- Reduce excessive mould and mildew build-up
- Water resistance and dampness prevention
- Strengthened structure – less moisture, fewer cracks, and less vulnerability to all weather elements
- Increased property value – having waterproofed concrete in all the areas of your home or business gives potential buyers the confidence there won’t be any costly maintenance issues
- A rich and glossy appearance that looks clean and professional
- A finish that helps resist acid, oil, grease, and general stains

Waterproofing materials for concrete – what you’ll need
Before applying the Liquid Rubber products recommended below; ensure your surface is clean and dry.
It must be free from dust, dirt, oils, varnishes, surface flaking, poorly bonded or glossy paint, sealers, salts, or any other substance, which will create a barrier and disrupt Liquid Rubber from adhering properly.
Liquid Rubber can then be applied like paint using a brush, roller, or spray gun.
What you’ll need:
- Cohe Quick Clean
- Liquid Rubber Application Kit
