Roof waterproofing is an effective way of shielding our building against such threats, providing a security veil that also upgrades our property and is our best ally in the battle against damp and mould. One question that many property owners are concerned about, however, is when is the right time for roof waterproofing and what they should look out for when carrying out the work.
