This was a solid overview and I liked the emphasis on treating waterproofing as a full system instead of just picking a membrane. The section on weak points (drains, curbs, parapets) felt especially practical since that’s where we’ve seen issues in real life. I would’ve appreciated a quick comparison table or rough cost/longevity ranges for PVC vs TPO vs EPDM, but overall it’s clear and useful.
This guide does a good job explaining that waterproofing is more than just slapping on a membrane, and I liked the clear breakdown of sheet vs. liquid systems. The section on detailing around drains, edges, and penetrations felt especially practical since that’s where I’ve seen leaks start. I would’ve appreciated a quick comparison of typical lifespan/cost ranges for PVC vs TPO vs EPDM, but overall it’s a solid, useful overview.
