How to make the old bathroom waterproof

1. Bathroom waterproof construction steps.

Step 1: You can use a slightly coarser cement to base the foundation first, and then brush the waterproof paint after the cement is dry. But in painting money, the ground should be flat and there should be no grooves. Water is then sprinkled on the ground to expel the gas from the small holes.

Step 2: Mix the powder and liquid material evenly, and brush the bubbles if there are bubbles when brushing the paint.

Step 3: When brushing the paint, brush it from the same direction, wait 1-2 hours, and then brush the second coat. When brushing the second layer, the direction of the brush should be opposite to that of the first layer, so that the best coverage can be achieved.

Step 4: You can brush it several times, which can increase the density and fill the gaps. Some people think that the more layers of waterproof paint the better, or even brush six or seven layers, but in fact, this is not good, the paint is too thick and easy to crack.

Step 5: Wait for one day before taking a waterproof test.

Step 6: When doing the waterproof test, you should first fight with your downstairs neighbor.

Say hello, then plug the drain, fill the ground with water, and wait an hour to ask your downstairs neighbor if there is a leak. If there is a water leak, the waterproofing layer should be rebuilt. If the waterproof test is qualified, it can be tiled.

The waterproof treatment of the wall should also be noted, if the wall and the bathtub are adjacent, then the waterproof treatment height should be higher than the upper edge of the bathtub, and the shower should reach a height of 180cm.

5. Before doing waterproofing, pay attention to the correct position of the floor drain elevation.

6. To ensure that the sewer is smooth, the sewer pipes in the bathroom, including floor drains and toilet sewer pipes, must be kept unobstructed.

If the sewer pipe is leaking, you have to remove the floor tiles.
