Anyone know of any products available from B and Q or wickes which will help stop water penetrating into a concrete sectional garage?. I went round the inside and outside of the garage with a cement (fillet) when I first built it. Unfortunately puddles form outside and seem to seep through. Anyone know of a product that I could possibly paint the cement fillet with to create a barrier?.

 

Heres an example

would a brick sealer work, the stuff that you paint on and it creates a clear barrier.

bitumin paint'll stop water.

just painted my roof with bitumin easy to use and not more leeks :thumbup1:

The only permanent solution would be to dig a french drain on the

side that is affected.

Got any pics?

bitumen will work

vandex.... mix it like a really wet cement and paint it on...look it up on the web....

 

you might have to go to a builders merchant...

Thanks guys, picked up some brick sealer yesterday morning from B and Q, will give that a try, if not will go back and try the bitumen, as I looked at that first.

 

Sideshowbob, the problem is the concrete base is much bigger than my garage, as I had wanted to replace my old garage with a new one. Might do this some point in the future, so dont really want to dig into it.

 

 

Thanks

Sideshowbob, found a picture.
