Weather Proofing Coating Systems
Coatings, and how they perform on architectural masonry, play an integral part in creating a masonry home that can withstand New Zealand's often wet and windy climate.When building with masonry, using the correct sealer will be your first line of defense against the ingress of rain water, especially when there is wind pressure behind it.
