The alternative to tiling for your Spanish home: What is waterproof flooring?

Why getting rid of your tiles could save you hassle and be better for your house…

Many Spanish homes use tiles or slabs to ‘pave’ floors of terrazas and other parts of the property, but there is an alternative that homeowners are finding increasingly attractive due to its smooth, modern finish.

“One alternative to tiling is Waterproof flooring that doesn’t split or crack,” says Joe Clarke, Waterproofing specialist at Spanish-based company Leak Proof, adding that it lasts for over 20 years.

“Our system guarantees a leak-proof surface and a durable one for everyday use.”

With waterproof flooring, there is no more need for re-grouting and you’ll never have to replace a broken tile ever again. This durable industrial product is 100% waterproof, but also acts as insulation for the home and is UV protected to protect you from harmful rays.

Leak Proof are Waterproofing experts who handle all flat roofs and surfaces such as balconies, terraces and patios, whether in residential, commercial or industrial buildings.

The team has been waterproofing buildings in Alicante province and the Region of Murcia for over a decade using specialist waterproofing systems that guarantee a leak proof surface.
