In the highly complex industry of healthcare infrastructure, every detail plays a crucial role in maintaining the delicate balance between safety, efficiency, and patient care. Among these, hospital-grade waterproofing serves as a silent protection, often overlooked yet essential for ensuring the longevity and functionality of hospital buildings and institutions.

The dangers of water damage in healthcare facilities

Water damage poses a significant threat to the safety and functionality of healthcare facilities. From the mild seepage of moisture into walls and ceilings to floods, the consequences of water leaking into buildings are severe and potentially dangerous. Mould growth, structural decay, compromised indoor air quality, and electrical hazards are some of the many challenges healthcare facilities face when water damage occurs. The impact can extend beyond mere inconvenience, compromising patient safety, operational continuity, and financial stability.

Water damage can be dangerous for healthcare facilities. Inconvenience is one thing, but compromising patient safety can have far-reaching devastating effects that could lead to medico-legal cases.

What is Hospital-Grade Waterproofing?

Hospital-grade waterproofing is a specialised method designed to protect healthcare facilities from water damage. Unlike traditional waterproofing techniques, which often involve invasive procedures that disrupt patient comfort and pose hazards to occupants (such as volatile compounds, dust, noise, and structural hacking), hospital-grade waterproofing employs advanced materials and technologies. These innovations create a robust barrier against water seepage, mould growth, and structural deterioration without compromising occupant health and safety. This approach ensures long-term protection while maintaining a safe and comfortable environment for everyone in the facility.

Advantages of waterproofing hospitals & healthcare Institutions

Standard waterproofing benefits include enhanced structural strength and improved indoor air quality, but hospital-grade waterproofing goes further by creating a safer, healthier environment for patients, staff, and visitors as it prevents mould growth and structural deterioration, reduces maintenance costs, extends the lifespan of building materials, and minimises the risk of costly repairs and renovations without the need for hacking up floors, tiles, and walls or the application of chemicals that release toxic fumes. From a financial perspective, the return on investment offered by hospital-grade waterproofing is substantial, making it a sound investment for healthcare facilities of all sizes.

1. Ensuring Hospital & Healthcare Facilities Regulatory Compliances

Regulatory compliance is a key concern for healthcare facilities, and hospital-grade waterproofing plays a crucial role in meeting industry standards and guidelines, such as complying to Act 586 of the Private Healthcare and Services Act 1998 which states that hospitals and healthcare facilities are to prescribe the minimum standards of safety, quality of care and welfare of patients in private healthcare facilities and services. Hospital-grade waterproofing provides a more proactive, preventive approach to regulatory compliance, reducing the risk of penalties, and legal liabilities associated with non-compliance.

Hospital-grade waterproofing provides a safer, healthier environment while also lowering maintenance costs, extending the life of building materials, and lowering the chance of costly repairs and upgrades.

How Waterproofing Walls and Tiles Can Overcome Water Leakage Problems

Whether in bathrooms, basements, or exterior walls, water leakage problems can compromise the overall safety of a space.

Water leakage problems, as trivial as it sounds, has been every homeowner’s worst nightmare. Not only does the water seepage compromise the structure of the house, it also poses health risks from the growth of mould and mildew. This begs the question: “What if I did not waterproof my home before moving in, and am now currently facing water leakage problems? Can waterproofing my walls and tiles still fix the issue?”

Before being too quick to jump on all of the contractors’ resounding ‘YES’ – here’s a quick article we’ve put together for you to understand the hows and whys of water leakage problems, and how our waterproofing method can both prevent and overcome the issue.

How does water leakage occur?

Water can seep into your home through walls, finding its way through porous materials, gaps, and cracks in the structure. This infiltration creates damp spots on walls and ceilings, impacting the appearance of your living space. If ignored, these issues can pose risks to both the structure and the health of your loved ones! Thus, it’s vital to address wall leakage promptly to maintain the structural integrity of your home.

Signs of water leakage in walls.

These can vary depending on the severity of the water leakage, but common indicators are as follows:

1. Damp or discoloured drywalls resulting from moisture infiltration, which can even cause the drywall to appear swollen.

2. Peeling or bubbling paint resulting from water or vapour that has seeped into walls, stagnating between the surface of the wall and the paint layer.

3. Moulds and mildew growth on walls or surfaces can be indicative of water leakage or excessive moisture.

4. Damage to building structure; often resulting from water leakage from above which can result in visible damage to ceilings and even flooring.

5. A musty smell is a strong indicator of mould and mildew growth – even if you cannot see them.

Signs of water damage behind or beneath tiles.

Identifying water-damaged tiles in your home is crucial for timely repairs and preventing further damage. Here are some significant clues to help you recognise water damage in your tiles:

1. Loosened tiles happen when tiles are affected by water damage. They may lose their adhesive bond to the underlying surface after constant exposure to excess moisture. If you notice tiles that are unstable or become loose, it could indicate water damage beneath them.

2. Hollow sounds. You can tap the tiles with a coin or another solid object to check for hollow sounds as water-damaged tiles with trapped moisture or damage beneath the tiles may produce a hollow or different sound compared to unaffected tiles.

3. Staining or discolouration on the surface of tiles is often a clear sign of water damage. If you notice unusual stains that cannot be attributed to regular wear and tear, it’s essential to investigate further.

4. Water damage can affect the grout lines between tiles. Look for signs of deteriorating or discoloured grout. Cracked or crumbling grout can also be indicative of water-related issues.

How to prevent water leakage in walls and tiles?

“Prevention is better than cure,” couldn’t be more relevant when it comes to maintaining your home! Water leakage problems, though they may start off as small and trivial problems, can quickly turn into costly repairs if ignored. That’s where waterproofing comes in as a smart, proactive solution.

By waterproofing your walls and tiles, you’re creating a strong and literally impenetrable defence against the damage caused by water. More than just fixing your current leakage problems, waterproofing is all about future-proofing your home from wear and tear, UV damage, and weathering problems that directly cause water leakage problems.

3 Good Reasons to Waterproof Your Home Before Water Leakage Issues Occur.

1. Prevents water damage.

Water damage is easy to severely underestimate. Who would have thought that when water seeps through the grout lines or hairline cracks in your walls and floors, your home becomes a thriving haven for mould and mildew (sometimes, even mushrooms) that eventually lead to damage in the subfloor, ceilings, and other areas below the tile surface?

2. Prevent future costly repairs.

Waterproofing increases the longevity of the materials used to build your home. That means you’ll want your tiles, walls, floors, and ceilings to last as long as you and your loved ones live there. Waterproofing your tiles and walls can keep them in pristine condition and avoid time-consuming and expensive repairs or replacements, protecting them from moisture-related deterioration and prolonging their stability.

3. Eliminate mould and mildew growth.

Mould and mildew thrive in damp or extra humid places – which happens when water seeps into the floorboards through the grout lines. The microorganisms damage not only the aesthetics of your home but also cause health issues for you and your family. Waterproofing your tiles and floors keeps your living space dry and sanitary since dryness is unfavourable for mould and mildew growth.

Why Nano-G Hospital-Grade Nanotechnology Waterproofing Solution is the best solution for your water leakage problems.

Our nanotechnology waterproofing solution is dust-free, noise-free, non-toxic, and non-intrusive – these points alone have allowed us to triumph over our competitors in the waterproofing industry.

Unlike conventional waterproofing methods that require hacking up floors and tiles, and creating a mess during renovation – our solution requires none of that at all. Instead, we use a water-based solution to create an invisible hydrophobic layer on the walls and tile surfaces, effectively transforming all treated substrates into water-repellant surfaces! This innovative method is eco-friendly and human-safe, ensuring minimal disruption to occupants and also to the health of our staff during the application process.

All in all, your water leakage problems can be effectively resolved within just 24 hours of application!

During the FREE inspection, our professionals will use a scanner to detect excess moisture or humidity levels to identify the root of the water leakage problems before devising a solution.

waterproofing technique that may be viable for malaysia weather

Is Torch-on Membrane The Best Waterproofing Solution in Malaysia?

With this bitumen technology dominating about 70% of the flat roof market around the world, many waterproofing contractors in Malaysia are quick to jump on the bandwagon. How reliable is torch-on membrane waterproofing in Malaysia?

A quick search on Google for the term “torch-on membrane waterproofing Malaysia” will yield countless results from different contractors across the country – and a 5-minute read is sufficient for one to know that the technology relies on thick, pre-made bitumen mats that claim to be highly durable after torching. It is a widely used method to prevent water infiltration in various construction projects, and contractors are also pushing for this technology to be implemented in residential units. However, the successful application of this technique can be influenced by several factors, including ambient temperature and the heat generated during the torching process.

In Malaysia’s tropical climate, its weather conditions, elevated temperatures, and other environmental conditions present a unique challenge to the quality and consistency of torch-on membrane installation.

Let’s look into the suitability of this method.

What is torch-on membrane?

Torch-on membrane waterproofing involves applying layers of specialised waterproofing material, typically modified bitumen, to create a sealed and water-resistant surface. The mats are at least 3mm thick, and the term “torch-on” refers to the application process, where heat is used to melt the modified bitumen mat so that the treated material adheres securely to the substrate – typically flat concrete surfaces.

Torch-on membrane waterproofing is only durable when done right.

Torch-on membranes require the application of heat to create a secure bond with the substrate. In Malaysia’s hot and humid climate, the high temperatures can make the application process challenging, as the material can soften quickly, affecting the installation quality. Moreover, the high humidity often means trapping moisture beneath the waterproofing bitumen layer, which causes pressure to build up over time – threatening the structural integrity of the concrete and bitumen layer simultaneously.

Additionally, torch-on membranes can be sensitive to UV radiation from the sun. Malaysia’s intense 12-hour sunlight all year round can cause the membrane to deteriorate more quickly over time compared to other countries, leading to cracks, brittleness, and reduced waterproofing effectiveness.

Some of the key disadvantages of torch-on membrane waterproofing in Malaysia’s tropical climate include the following:

1. Effects of hot weather on workmanship

Working under the scorching sun and enduring the elevated temperatures during torch-on membrane installation can significantly impact the workmanship and overall performance of the bitumen layer’s application process. The intense heat not only affects the comfort and safety of the workers but also introduces challenges related to maintaining optimal conditions for proper adhesive melting and bonding. The combination of high ambient temperatures and heat generated from the torching process can lead to inconsistencies in the adhesive melting phase, potentially compromising the integrity of the waterproofing system. Moreover, the discomfort caused by the heat can lead to reduced work efficiency and productivity, as workers may be inclined to rush through the installation process to minimise their exposure to the heat.

2. Issues with adhesive melting and bonding

Consistent adhesive melting and bonding of the bitumen layer are crucial for the long-term effectiveness of torch-on membrane installations. When workers rapidly install the layer to escape the hot weather, this can cause uneven melting of adhesives and insufficient bonding between the membrane and the substrate. Ultimately, this leads to weakened waterproofing properties, reduced durability, and potential leakages over time. Inadequate adhesive melting also affects the uniformity of the application, which is essential for creating a seamless and reliable waterproofing barrier.

Poorly maintained torch-on membrane will have a significantly shorter lifespan, evident through signs of splits and cracks that can allow water to seep through. Source.

3. Bubbling from trapped moisture beneath the bitumen layer

Bubbling arises when pockets of trapped moisture or air become encapsulated beneath the membrane’s surface. This issue can arise due to improper adhesive melting as mentioned earlier, suboptimal torching techniques due to untrained workers, uneven substrate preparation due to manufacturing defects, and environmental conditions such as Malaysia’s extremely fluctuating tropical weather of rain and shine. Thus, these bubble pockets compromise the membrane’s ability to form a seamless and effective barrier against water infiltration – which leads to the next problem.

Blisters such as shown above are a common problem for torch-on membranes due to trapped moisture and air during the application. Source.

4. Repeated cutting and patching of bitumen layer as repair

Addressing the aforementioned bubbling problem involves cutting up and patching over the membrane. This means that instead of a complete removal, the affected section is meticulously cut out to allow the trapped moisture or air to escape. Subsequently, a fresh piece of membrane is skillfully applied over the excised area. While contractors argue that this approach minimises the need for a comprehensive replacement, the potential long-term repercussions from the accumulation of patches negatively affect the functionality and aesthetic appeal of the installation. With each additional patch, the numerous seams and joints resulting from extensive patching could weaken the system’s resistance to water infiltration. Aesthetics-wise, discrepancies in colour, texture, and alignment between patches and the original membrane can lead to an uneven and unprofessional appearance.

Delamination happens when the membrane layer separates from the flat roof’s surface due to poor workmanship. Source.

5. High expertise is required for the proper installation of torch-on membranes

Proper installation of torch-on membranes requires skilled workers who are trained in the correct application techniques. Inadequate installation can result in poor waterproofing performance and costly repairs, often borne by the client. Delamination is also a common problem in torch-on membrane waterproofing. The membrane layer gradually detaches from the concrete surface if the membrane is not heated correctly, or when moisture is present during the application process. Experts in this bitumen technology must be highly trained in the standard operating procedures from pre-application to post-application for sustainable success.

Additionally, your safety relies solely on the torch-on membrane worker’s work procedure – as evident in this fire incident.

While torching involves manual labour, it pays for the contractors to hire experienced workers instead of skimping on human resources to prevent unfortunate incidents like causing fires in the clients’ buildings. Source.

In October 2019, a significant fire erupted at the SkyCity Convention Centre in Auckland, New Zealand. The site, a major construction project, was engulfed in flames for several days. The fire’s rapid spread was attributed, in part, to the use of torch-on membrane waterproofing, a construction material that proved susceptible to ignition. The catalyst for the blaze was a worker who inadvertently left a blowtorch unattended, causing the membrane to smoulder. This eventually led to the fire’s ignition and subsequent expansion. The incident garnered widespread attention due to its immense scale, the challenges encountered in extinguishing the flames, and the ensuing discussions regarding construction safety practices. Notably, all the workers present were experienced professionals.

According to a report by Fire and Emergency NZ, the fire originated from the smouldering of the cardboard core within a waterproof roofing membrane roll. This smouldering persisted for over 30 minutes during a lunch break before escalating into a full-blown fire, which persisted for a period of 10 days.

When it comes to waterproofing, it is best to choose a well-rounded solution that is durable and safe throughout the application process.

The Ministry of Health of Malaysia (MOH) certification guarantees that Nano-G meets the highest health and safety standards, ensuring that our method is perfectly human-safe and eco-friendly, from pre-application to post-application. Altogether, our hospital-grade nanotechnology proves to be the ultimate solution in promoting a secure environment for home occupants and businesses alike.

The NanoVerify certification further validates Nano-G’s quality and responsible nanotechnology practices. The highly coveted certification verifies that our anti-slip solutions meet the rigorous standards set by the certification scheme, further emphasising our commitment to transparency and excellence.

Conclusion

While torch-on membrane waterproofing offers durability and effectiveness, its suitability in Malaysia’s tropical climate requires careful consideration of its drawbacks. The challenges posed by heat, UV exposure, maintenance, and flexibility raise questions about its safety and long-term effectiveness.

Alternatively, consider modern waterproofing methods that address these challenges such as Nano’G’s Nanotechnology Waterproofing solution. Consult our waterproofing experts to understand the unique demands of Malaysia’s weather so that you can make better-informed decisions in selecting an effective waterproofing solution for your home or commercial building.

Safeguarding Your Airbnb Investments With Nanotechnology Waterproofing

Waterproofing your Airbnb house can reduce the need for frequent maintenance and protect the value of your property while ensuring the safety and comfort of your guests.

One way that property owners generate additional income is to venture into Airbnb. It is tempting to think that just providing clean accommodation with basic facilities would suffice but what about the overall safety of the structure? There are many aspects to look heavily into if you want to ensure that your guests have a relaxing and delightful stay, otherwise, customer experience and the reputation of your Airbnb will suffer. One of them is the waterproofing your Airbnb.

Why waterproofing you may ask? Let us look into the reasons.

4 reasons to waterproof your Airbnb guest house.

1. Protecting against weather-related water damage.

Building structures in tropical climates like Malaysia face the challenge of withstanding perpetual rain and the scorching hot sun.

As our weather pattern has changed, we see a spike in the frequency of rainfall, and there is bound to be some water seepage into the walls, ceilings, and flooring – whether your property is a bungalow, semi-D, terrace house, or high-rise unit. Water seepage into cracks of the building can cause a range of problems that will compromise the structural integrity of the building, and they include water leakages, warping of plaster ceilings and wooden partitions, mould growth, bubbling of paint, pressure-buildup inside concrete pores, and more. When that happens, property owners of the unit often spend thousands upon thousands of dollars to identify the cause of the damage and fix up the home – neutralising the profits made from the Airbnb side hustle.

2. Improve guest experience and reviews.

Would you stay in a house full of mould, much less leave it a 5-star review?

When you are unaware of existing water leakages in a home you seldom occupy, mould growth appears at unpredictable times and can even happen during the tenure of your guests! Therefore, time is of the essence when this happens, and you can’t afford to wait longer for it to be rectified -particularly for Airbnb hosts who rely on positive evaluations for repeat business on the Airbnb platform. By investing in reliable waterproofing solutions for your guest house, not only do you protect the structure of the building and prevent moulds and stains on the wall; you are meeting the high expectations of guests with a safe and comfortable environment, which is likely to result in positive feedback and repeat reservations.

3. Avoiding health risks for visitors.

Guests suffering from allergies are very particular about their accommodation, examining the furniture and rooms for any sign of allergens upon check-in, and will not hesitate to cancel their reservations when the place fails their expectations.

Moulds, mildew, and warped wooden floors sustained as a result of water leakages pose a grave danger to guests with immuno-compromised immune systems, especially sufferers of asthma and allergy issues who will be the most at risk. Some property owners who tried multiple times but were unable to permanently resolve the issues resort to using wallpapers and vinyl tiles to cover up the growth. While this move could only protect the aesthetics of the interior design, mould and mildew emit a distinctive odour that can be easily identified and make your guests uncomfortable.

4. Extending the property value.

When you have invested in a property that you are going to use as an income generator, you are looking at a long-term plan. As such you want the property to be in a good condition for a long period of time, with minimal maintenance. This makes waterproofing all the more important in keeping the property dry and protected from moisture-related structural damages, especially in Malaysia where heavy rains are a frequent occurrence.

Make Your Property Investment Worth Your While by Waterproofing Your New Home

Silent leaks can turn the joy of obtaining a dream home into a long-term nightmare situation if not addressed early.

For many of us, owning a dream home is a financial investment that involves significant portions of our life savings and monthly income. But the initial excitement of securing a new property can potentially become a sour investment when water damage reveals the signs of faulty waterproofing, a commonly overlooked problem with devastating long-term effects. However, you can avoid this by taking preventative measures to mitigate the risks altogether. By conducting regular inspections and investing in quality waterproofing measures, you can make your dream home a worthwhile investment from the start.

Case Study

Waterproofing Issue Can Prevent New House Owners From Moving Into Their Dream Homes

Water leakage problems in a newly-purchased homes can happen to the best of us – sometimes, even making waves in the news. As featured in the local paper The Star, after receiving the keys to his million-ringgit home almost three years ago, lecturer Dr. Wong Ya Ping was unable to move in due to ongoing waterproofing issue. Apparently, on the day he obtained the keys in March 2020, there were already indications of moisture in the porch area. Although the property was still subject to the developer’s defect responsibility, dealing with the hassle and disappointment can be disheartening.

In fact, the rising number of inter-floor leakage cases has more than doubled in Klang Valley’s strata developments.

Nano G Waterproofing For New Home Number Of Cases

The numbers reflect only those who report the water leakage to DBKL, the real number of cases most definitely exceeds the statistics in the report above.

According to the statistics released by Kuala Lumpur City Hall (DBKL), they received 1,265 water leakage reports last year compared to only 489 reports in 2018. Similarly, all local authorities in Selangor cumulatively recorded 1,318 reports in 2021 compared to 778 reports in 2017. Kuan You Wai, a member of the Standards Malaysia Department waterproofing committee, said it was the second most common complaint received by the Strata Management Tribunal!

Here are the top 3 common signs of water leakage at home.

1. Mold and mildew

Patches of green, brown, or black that look like fungal growth are evidences of mold and mildew growth.

Persistent water leaks in warm spaces provide the perfect conditions for unsightly mold and mildew growth. In Malaysia, where the climate is warm and humid all year, mold and mildew develop quickly following a water leakage problem in buildings. Long-term exposure to these microorganisms commonly leads to upper respiratory issues and induces allergic reactions, with asthma sufferers being the most susceptible. In extreme cases, areas affected by the water leak could develop a type of toxic black mold that has the potential of causing serious health complications.

2. Peeling or plistering paint or wallpaper

Nano G Waterproofing For New Home Blistering

Peeling or blistering paint and wallpaper occurs when humidity is too high or frequent contact with wet conditions – both are key indicators of a water leakage problem.

Paint or wallpaper that peel or blister indicates a water leak somewhere behind your wall. This unfortunately means it has been an ongoing issue and needs immediate attention to prevent further damage. Damage at this point, in worst-case scenarios, would require you to replace structures such as drywall and wood as they readily absorb any available moisture in their surroundings, making the perfect environment for uninvited microbes to thrive inside.

3. Damaged flooring – especially wooden ones

Nano G Waterproofing For New Home Water Damage

Wooden flooring damaged by water leakage problems greatly compromise the safety of the occupants, as it can give way due to the wood rot.

Hidden leaks from underground pipes can also appear as warps, stains, or soft spots on your floors, often in bathrooms or areas at home that is near a water source or high in humidity. This would result in loose tiles and planks or cracked and peeling caulking on hard floorings. If you have carpeted areas, pay attention to damp spottings or the unpleasant scent of a strong mustiness.

Preventing the Development of Mold Growth

The presence of mold in your home is not only a health hazard, but it will also cost you extra to properly eliminate the problem once it is set. Instead of waiting for the point of no return, you can always prevent it from reaching that level by engaging Nano-G for our Nanotechnology Waterproofing solution.

How does it work?

Instead of the conventional waterproofing method of applying a plastic film over the surface, the patented nanotechnology solution Nano-G uses is applied with a paintbrush. The water-based solution creates an invisible, hydrophobic layer that prevents water from seeping even through hairline cracks – by lining the capillaries inside treated surfaces almost an inch deep!

Maintaining the Value by Waterproofing your New Home with Nano-G

Properties lose value over time due to the damage from wear and tear. That is why many homeowners see building maintenance as one of the most important budgets to set aside. If you are the owner of a new home, you will benefit the most from extending the lifespan and durability of your roofs, walls, and ceilings with Nano-G’s extra protection against water leakages and mold growth – allowing you to maintain that fresh feeling of a new home.

Protecting Your New Retail Store Investment From Water Leakage Problems

Waterproofing is good for business. By keeping water leakage problems out of your retail store, you’re protecting your inventory and avoiding costly repairs down the line.

Investing in a retail store is a different ballgame compared to running an ecommerce business – there are aspects to the security and safety of your physical goods and assets you have to deal with to ensure that your investment does not result in a loss. While most, if not all retail store owners have insurance policies to protect their assets from fires and floods, which are way less likely to take place compared to a water leakage problem, many business owners fail to consider the business benefits of waterproofing their premises. While water leakage problems seem trivial, the damage they cause can be extensive and costly to repair, interrupting your business in the process and causing you loss of revenue.

How do water leakage problems damage retail businesses?

Water leakage can happen from many things, and contrary to popular belief, the main cause is often NOT leaky pipes or poor piping. In fact, we receive the highest number of calls from customers to solve their water leakage problems during the monsoon season.

Having said that, the areas of your premises that are most prone to water leakage problems are in fact roofs, ceilings, and walls – both interior and exterior. On top of being exposed to constant rainfall from Malaysia’s tropical weather, water leakage problems also happen due to leakages from your neighbour’s units!

Unresolved water leakage can lead to a range of issues that can be expensive to deal with, and they include mould growth, structural damage, and damage to inventory, equipment, and merchandise – all of which can add up to significant loss of profits and a scarred reputation.

The extent of the damage to retail business depends on the severity of water intrusion and how quickly it is addressed. The more quickly the water leakage problem is resolved, the less damage done. In tropical countries like Malaysia where it is warm and humid throughout the year, retail shops affected by water damage face the risk of business disruptions from giving a poor impression to customers due to the uncomfortable humidity and musty odor that negatively affects their shopping experience.

How does Nano-G solve water leakage problems for retail businesses?

Fixing a leaky ceiling or concrete flat roof in your retail store does not necessarily drain your business’ sinking funds. Nano-G leverages the power of nanotechnology for an effective no-hacking, dust-free, and non-toxic waterproofing solution that retains surface breathability, unlike other contractors that merely seal the surface with a film or require extensive renovations to address the leakage.

Nano-G Nanotechnology Waterproofing comes with a satisfaction guarantee, doesn’t involve difficult steps, messy renovations, or chemical injections on floors, walls, or ceilings. Instead, we use a thin – but powerful layer of water-based nanotechnology solution that only takes 24 hours to cure.

This means that the process can be carried out without affecting your business as usual or disrupt customer experience during your opening hours!

Nano-G’s Waterproofing Is Hospital-Grade

Our hospital-grade Nanotechnology 4th Generation Waterproofing solution is the only nanotechnology solution in the market that is approved by the Ministry of Health Malaysia (MOH). The safeness of our revolutionary solution has also earned us the Green Label certification.

So, how is such a thin layer so powerful? Here’s the science behind our solution, simplified.

You see, Nano-G’s nanotechnology waterproofing solution adheres to the surface and creates a water repellent barrier by seeping into the pores and capillaries of the treated surface, coating every surface area inside with hydrophobic particles. Since the solution is not an external film or a physical layer, it is UV resistant, therefore not subject to weathering damage or wear and tear.

Thus, our waterproofing solution can be applied to walls, roofs, and windows – providing a high level of protection against water damage, UV damage, and discolouration over time which is perfect for any retail store.

When is the best time to waterproof a retail store?

The best time to waterproof your retail store is always during the renovation period when the building is exposed, making it easier to identify areas that are vulnerable to water damage. Waterproofing should also be done before any finishing works such as painting, putting up wallpapers, or installing flooring. This will prevent any potential water damage to ruin the aesthetics of your interior design as well.

Conclusion

Waterproofing your newly acquired retail store is a crucial step in securing your business, and should be added into your business cost before water damages cause unexpected financial crises.

A Comparison Of Waterproofing Services in Malaysia

Understand what each of these most popular waterproofing companies offer and the technology they apply.

Waterproofing plays a crucial role for the structural integrity of a building, and any rookie engineer and architect who underestimates the severity of water damages were quick to regret their negligence in this area. Constant exposure to water, moisture, and high humidity can cause severe damage to a building over time, particularly in the form of rotting, rusting, cracking, and warping – not to mention enabling hazardous fungi and mould to thrive. This is a common occurrence for buildings that are in Malaysia thus waterproofing is essential for the tropical weather in the country.

Having said that, the waterproofing industry in Malaysia is growing, just as the awareness of its importance. These companies offer services that are primarily targeted to prevent water from penetrating through building walls and ceilings, but they employ different methods and solutions in overcoming water leakage problems.

Let’s take a look:

Different Waterproofing Methods in Malaysia

Here’s a quick rundown on popular waterproofing methods in Malaysia.

PU Injection

The PU Injection process involves drilling holes into the affected area.

Contractors who offer PU Injections as a waterproofing method usually drill holes into the floors, walls, or ceiling areas before pumping PU into the hole using an injection gun. The chemical composition in the injection is then triggered to expand and fill up the gaps of the walls or ceiling in hopes of filling up the cracks.

Torch-on Membrane

The torch-on method is popular for waterproofing flat roof areas.

Torch-on waterproofing, also known as bitumen torch-on, requires a torch to heat fuse asphalt material directly onto the roof. This process then creates a waterproof barrier that covers the entire roof surface at an even thickness. It is often used on flat roofs that have a common problem of puddling and ponding rainwater that sits atop the roof for extended periods of time.

Cementitious Waterproofing

Cementitious Waterproofing involves application of cement to treat water leakage issues.

The cementitious waterproof coating is a two-component coating that offers breathability when applied, on both the outer and inner side of concrete and masonry surfaces. In addition to keeping moisture out, these coatings can prevent damage from mold, mildew and water infiltration.

Rubber membrane

Rubber waterproofing paint is also known as elastomeric waterproofing paint.

Rubber waterproofing paint is made of liquified oil, latex, or rubber to be applied onto surfaces either with a sprayer or a painting tool. To give the finishing a bit more structure, a fibre texture layer is added between paint layers to further strengthen its waterproofing qualities.

Learn more about these different waterproofing solutions here:

Many waterproofing companies compete with one another to offer more than one method of waterproofing in the name of diversifying their services.

In the waterproofing market, most companies in Malaysia are often seen as a “jack of all trades” when offering waterproofing solutions – but Nano-G isn’t afraid to claim its ‘master of one’ title in this arena.

Nano-G has an unshakeably strong track record of solving water leakage problems across Malaysia in both commercial buildings and homes – and our portfolio of clienteles can attest to our effectiveness.

Instead of going through the trials and errors of figuring out what’s the best method in the market to waterproof your bathroom tiles, ceiling or roof (and risk wasting your time over low success rates after engaging multiple contractors), get Nano-G to inspect your water stains or leaking issues!

Preventing Water Leakage Problems in Hotels & Resorts

With hundreds of water outlets in the building, don’t leave water leakage encounters up to chance.

Hotels and resorts can host up to hundreds or thousands of visitors per day, which means tons of water running through bathrooms, commercial kitchens, swimming pools, and spas by the minute across an extensive network of pipes and valves from the basement to all the way to the rooftop. Having said that, your hotel management’s contingency plan should take into consideration the potentially major problems which can arise from even seemingly small water leakages. After all, water leaks in hotels & resorts are bound to happen due to wear and tear.

Signs Your Hotel Has Water Leakage Problems

During periodic inspections conducted by your staff, they may have spotted a few of the following visual indicators on walls and ceilings:

• Yellow water stains
• Peeling or bubbling paint
• Black mold, green algae growth
• Sagging ceiling

Other than visual cues, water leakage problems can be identified through a distinct musty smell, and the atmosphere of the room or space usually feels heavy and humid.

These common signs of water damage are a clear indicator that your premise is in need of waterproofing work. Source

Here are more details on water leakage signs your management should look out for:

The Consequences of Water Leakage Problems On Hotels & Resorts

1. Unpleasant aesthetics and bad first impressions of your hotel.

Water seepage into walls; either from the rain or bad plumping – does plenty of damage to wallpapers and paint. A paint job well done can look like shoddy work if the walls are continuously exposed to wetness. The most obvious indicators of water leakage problems are yellow stains and mold growth on plaster ceilings and walls.

The most obvious indicators of water leakage problems are yellow stains and mold growth on plaster ceilings and walls. Source

2. Poor customer experience.

Guests of hotels and resorts have set expectations on comfort and cleanliness before they check in to their rooms. Water leakage in rooms can cause dampness on the beds and sheets, plus an unshakeable musty odour that contributes to the overall uncomfortable feeling. Guests are more likely to leave bad reviews than good ones – and you don’t want to invite this kind of PR disaster.

3. Health & safety hazards.

Water damage affects the structural integrity of any building, and this fact is particularly concerning in larger buildings where multiple floors are affected by the leakage. On top of structural damage, water leakage can short-circuit electrical wirings inside or along the concrete walls, presenting a fire hazard. Last but not least, the airborne byproducts released by mold and mildew growth cause a myriad of diseases.

4. Preventable problems, and unnecessary costs.

These visual and structural problems, while being completely preventable, can end up costing the hotel a hefty sum in terms of time and budget; worse if the issue persists and is left unchecked. Consider the opportunity costs when the management finally decided to renovate the building to rectify the issue while losing out customers during the peak season.

Nano-G Waterproofing Your Exterior Walls For Your Bungalow

Everything To Know About Waterproofing The Exterior Walls Of Bungalows

The exterior walls of a building are exposed to rain, moisture, humidity, and extreme temperature changes – all of which over time will damage the walls and promote the growth of algae on its surface.

Bungalows have more exterior walls that are exposed to weathering compared to their semi-D and terrace counterparts. This means that bungalows are more likely to encounter rain or water seepage from the exterior wall into the interior rooms – a common construction defect experienced by many homeowners. As common as water leakage problems are, they can be quite a nightmare to deal with. Moreover, water damage comprises structural integrity, on top of turning the interior wall of your home or building into a breeding ground for humidity-loving mould and microbes. Prevention is better than cure. Thus, waterproofing the exterior walls of the bungalows is the most effective way to resolve or prevent future infiltration or damage sustained from weathering.

Bungalows are one of the most aesthetic buildings for homes. It is very important to protect the exterior walls as it is one of the assets for every bungalow. Without maintenance it will have visible dust, pale paint and mouldy layout of the home and it makes it less attractive.

The Best Method To Waterproof the Exterior Walls of your Bungalow

There are many waterproofing solutions available in the market, each marketed differently and offering varying value propositions. However, once homeowners understand that it is really only a matter of addressing the root cause of the problem, they eventually came to understand that Nano-G offers one of the most effective waterproofing solutions for exterior walls – from waterproofing wall paints to concrete.

Nano-G employs Nanotechnology in its solutions, whereby particles can penetrate deep into surfaces to create water-repellent structures at a nanoscale; that is 1000 times tinier than microscopic elements! These nano-sized water-repellent structures are inside the pores of paint and concrete, giving the treated surfaces an additional hydrophobic trait without changing their aesthetics or sealing the pores.

Nano-G Nanotechnology Waterproofing Solution help to repel rainwater from seeping into the pores of the walls with hydrophobic layering.

In totality, Nano-G’s waterproofing methods ensure effectiveness, a prolonged lifetime of your building’s surface, and no visible changes to the original natural appearance of the materials.

Learn about the science of how it works, read more about our 4th Generation of Nanotechnology Waterproofing Solutions here:

The Benefits Of Waterproofing Exterior Wall Go Beyond Simply Preventing Water Seepage.

1. Waterproofing exterior wall can prevent algae and mould growth.

During rainy seasons, the high humidity from outside the building can seep through the exterior walls into the home, causing interior dampness. This dampness poses another problem in many homes and is often the cause of peeling paint (indoors and outdoors), water leakage, and unsightly mould growth on the walls. These mould patches ruin the aesthetics of the building and can cause health issues to occupants over time.

A well-protected and properly-maintained bungalow can prevent all these issues and it is worth the investment to waterproof your bungalow.

2. Waterproofing exterior walls can help maintain the aesthetic of the building.

Layering your exterior walls with a hydrophobic surface helps the building repel water and allows the surface to dry more quickly. Taking air pollution and other environmental factors into consideration, the water-repellent layer also prevents dirty water and dust from settling on the walls. This also means that you can prevent exterior wall paints from deteriorating, which reduced the overall appeal of your home.

Waterproofing with Nano-G Nanotechnology Solutions helps to maintain your bungalow even if it have been well-occupied for quite some time. Our solution does not require hacking and will keep your building safe from reconstruction damages.

When Is It Necessary to Waterproof your Exterior Walls

Waterproofing the exterior wall is best done at the time of construction, but if your bungalow is much older and waterproofing was not accounted for – it’s time to give it a go.

Ideally, it is best to waterproof the bungalow before moving in, or when the exterior wall is still new and free from hairline cracks. Alternatively, you can safeguard your bungalow’s exterior walls any time you find convenient.

Take note that over time, walls can develop cracks and they generally start from the weakest areas of the wall. If you have already been residing in the bungalow for a few years, it is imperative to find these cracks and seal them first to avoid further water leakage issues.

Nano-G Waterproofing Your Exterior Walls For Your Bungalow Preventing Cracks

Don’t wait for the cracks to be visible, waterproof the exterior walls! Prevention is better than cure when it comes to damages to your bungalows.

How to find the cracks? No worries, we got you. At Nano-G, we provide FREE inspection for homeowners like yourself to identify the root cause of leakage problems and wall cracks, before proceeding with Nano-G Nanotechnology Waterproofing Solutions.

Here are our past customers’ thoughts towards Nano-G. Don’t wait for your problem to be severe, just call us to fix your exterior wall issue or need your new bungalow to be waterproof with a money-back guarantee.

Nano-G 4th Gen Hospital-Grade Waterproofing Solution

Nano-G Introduces Its 4th Generation Hospital-Grade Nanotechnology Waterproofing Solution

After 10 years of continuous research, development, servicing, and solving waterproofing issues for commercial & residential buildings across Malaysia, the company announces its 4th breakthrough in technology.

Nano-G is widely known in Malaysia’s waterproofing industry as the pioneer in leveraging the power of nanotechnology to prevent and overcome water leakage issues in homes and buildings. The company uses a water-based, liquid formulation that creates water-repelling protection on treated surfaces. Instead of sealing the porous surfaces with a film or later, the solution penetrates the microscopic capillaries of the surfaces that no elastomer or polymer can reach – to create a hydrophobic effect from the inside out.

Since its first introduction in 2010, the formulation has evolved over 4 generations after continuous R&D in Greece.

The superiority of Nano-G Hospital-grade Nanotechnology 4th Generation Waterproofing as compared to other regular or conventional waterproofing solutions in the market can be attested by client testimonials and various regulatory bodies in Malaysia.

Here are 5 validated pieces of evidence of the quality of our nanotechnology solution.

1. The first Waterproofing Solution in Malaysia to receive the NANOVerify certification by SIRIM.

As the industry’s pioneer, Nano-G had invested heavily in nanotechnology solutions even before the term was trending. With a growing interest in nanotechnology in recent years – both globally and locally, we see a rise in false claims by companies and independent contractors promoting their products and solutions as “nanotechnology”.

To combat the widespread misconception and protect the interest of the scientific community, SIRIM has enforced a set of stringent tests and standards for nanotechnology products and services in Malaysia under NANOVerify, to undergo various characterization of nanoparticle tests. It is a branch of nanometrology that deals with the characterization, or measurement, of the physical and chemical properties of nanoparticles.

Nano-G is the first company in Malaysia to receive the NANOVerify certification. The company is awarded the NANOVerified and NANOTrusted marking scheme for labeling and advertising usage. These accreditations serve as an assurance to clients and customers that Nano-G’s solutions are genuine as claimed.

The NanoVerify certifications ensure the genuineness of our Nano-G Nanotechnology Waterproofing Solution.

2. Engineered with a patented Greek Technology with CE quality marking scheme.

Nano-G Hospital-grade Nanotechnology 4th Generation Waterproofing is patented and validated by trusted quality assurance boards in Greece and Europe. The solutions we use bear the CE quality marking scheme, indicating that the formula has been assessed by the manufacturer and deemed to meet European safety, health, and environmental protection requirements.

This modern structural building is The Onassis Cultural Center in Greece. The building complies with European Safety standards to maintain the structures of the building, and their engineers use our Nanotechnology Waterproofing Solution to adhere to the policies.

3. Hospital-grade and environmentally friendly with Green Label certification.

The environmentally-friendly aspect of Nano-G Hospital-grade Nanotechnology 4th Generation Waterproofing solution has successfully gained approval from the Singapore Environmental Council (SEC), which simultaneously represents recognition from the Global Ecolabelling Network.

This green certification is one of the key factors that lead to Nano-G being selected as the appointed waterproofing specialist for all government hospitals across Malaysia. On top of the solution’s safe-if-inhaled and low VOC properties, Nano-G’s non-disruptive waterproofing methods allow hospital employees and patients to carry on with their day-to-day operations and routines.

4. Nanotechnology coating is high breathability and non-film-forming.

Nano-G’s formula does not create a “plastic film” on the treated surface. Instead, the solution has the same viscosity as water, is invisible and odourless, and creates water-repelling protection from the inside out of the treated surface through deep penetration of the hydrophobic nanoparticles into the pores of the substrates. Since this treatment does not seal the pores, it eliminates any chances of trapped moisture or humidity from beneath or behind the treated surface – and allows moisture to evaporate through the open pores to relieve negative capillary pressure. In this manner, swelling and cracking of treated surfaces are prevented.

Nano-G Nanotechnology Waterproofing solution penetrates treated surfaces to create a hydrophobic layer inside out.

Nano-G-Non-Breathable-Waterproofing Coating Causes Trapped Moisture

Non-breathable waterproofing coatings are thick, separate layers applied on top of existing floors. That means trapped moisture are unable to evaporate through the layer, and will instead build up pressure beneath the film – eventually causing bubbling and peeling to occur.

5. Long-lasting, UV-resistant and withstands harsh weather.

Modified surfaces that are treated with Nano-G Hospital-grade Nanotechnology 4th Generation Waterproofing solution are resistant to abrasion, deterioration, or mechanical wear. The modified surfaces are also more resistant to UV radiation damage from the Sun and do not turn yellow over time. These factors combine to demonstrate that treated surfaces exhibit prolonged durability against various weathering and human-use damages.

Nano-G's Waterproofing Solution UV-Resistant

Nano-G Nanotechnology is a long-lasting waterproofing solution that protects your premise against damages from rain and harmful UV rays.

ENDING

Nano-G Hospital-grade Nanotechnology 4th Generation Waterproofing solution has an impressive track record of success as the most effective water repellent for cement, mortar, grout, porous or natural stone.

What To Do When Water Is Leaking From The Apartment Unit Above Yours?

Who should take responsibility for a water leakage problem in a condominium, apartment, or flat unit? Read this article for the right course of action if you’re facing a water leakage from the unit upstairs.

The legal term for this particular problem we’re discussing in this article is “inter-floor leakage” – which is described as water damage to your ceiling. The Strata Management (Maintenance & Management) Regulations 2015 defines this water damage as any evidence of moisture, dampness, or water penetration on your ceiling or the materials that make up your ceiling (Regulation 55).

Inter-floor leakage is particularly difficult to navigate since the root cause of the leakage happens to be in an upstairs unit that belongs to someone else! On top of having to deal with your neighbour above, you may also have to deal with many more stakeholders such as the management of the condominium, contractors, developers, and possibly even legal offices if worse comes to worst.

Fortunately, staying informed can save you a lot of time and unnecessary back-and-forth communication with various parties – and we’re here to equip you with the right knowledge.

Did you know?

Water leakage is one of the most common problems in buildings, new or old – and conflict between unit owners can escalate when they refuse to give in to rectify the problem. Thus, Nano-G advises every new condominium or apartment owner to waterproof their unit before moving in to ensure double protection and prevent leakage in the next few years.

Now let’s get started on the important bits.

If the unit above yours is the one with the leakage issue, but your unit is the one suffering from the water damages (eg. flooding warping, mold, water damages, etc.), but the owner just refuses to rectify the issue.

1. Make an official complaint to the condominium management (CM)

This move applies if you live in a condominium or an apartment that has its own management office. Following the Strata Management (Maintenance and Management Regulation 2015), you have the right to file an official notice to the management of the building to request an inspection.

The management is then required to perform an inspection within 7 days after you file the notice. They should then issue a certificate of inspection within 5 days after conducting the inspection to identify the cause of the leak and the party responsible for fixing the leakage. If your unit is a new one and is within the defect liability period or still under warranty, you can lodge a complaint to the developer.

2. What if the owner of the unit above refuses to let the management carry out the inspection?

By law, the owner is required to cooperate, or else they could be fined up to RM50,000, jailed for 3 years, or both. In fact, if there is a risk of property damage and/or a likelihood of endangering someone’s life due to the water leakage problem, the management of the building is allowed to enter by force.

3. How soon should the unit owner get contractors to start repairs?

Repair works should start 7 days after the release of the certification of inspection by the management. If the unit owner has failed or refused to fix the water leakage, the management or the joint management body is to immediately take all necessary measures to rectify the inter-floor leakage. They will then charge and recover all costs and expenses from the owner of the unit.

4. From whom do I claim the reimbursement for the damages on my unit?

If you bought a recently developed condominium, SOHO, or apartment unit and it is still under the defect liability period, you can actually make a claim from the developer.

If your unit is no longer covered by the defect liability period, and the damages you have suffered are caused by water leakage from the unit above you, you can claim reimbursements from the owner. Of course – it is easier said than done. Thus, you can claim the reimbursements from the management of the building, and they will then proceed to claim from your neighbour upstairs.

Nano-G Waterproofing for Concrete Slab Roofs

Waterproofing Concrete Flat Roofs – For Homes and Buildings

Understanding how flat roofs are built can help you identify the best methods for waterproofing them.

Concrete flat roofs are increasingly becoming popular in building designs for both homes and commercial development due to their additional spaces that can be used for utilities (eg. water tanks, pumps, antennas, motor rooms, etc.) and recreation facilities (swimming pools, open decks, etc.). Unfortunately, flat roofs also cause big problems to homeowners and building managers – all of which stem from waterproofing issues.

It is this very reason that flat roofs are no longer allowed to be built on new government buildings.

Identifying the right waterproofing method is not as easy as one thinks; we must first have a basic understanding of how flat roofs are constructed.

1. The base of flat roofs is mainly constructed with concrete slabs.
2. Once the base is constructed, contractors then proceed to install waterproofing and heat insulation materials on top of these concrete slabs.
3. Then, a 5cm thick layer of cement screed is applied over the materials to protect them against the harsh Malaysian weather.
4. Finally, control joints on the cement screed are cut and sealed with elastic bitumen or sealant to guard against cracks.

Left unmanaged, water ponding causes expensive damage to buildings that may have extensive consequences.

With this info in mind, let’s take a look at some of the obvious and not-so-obvious technical pitfalls of flat roofs in homes and buildings.

Visible Problems	Invisible Problems
1. Bad Workmanship Poorly designed flat roofs without adequate drainage or even surfaces lead to water pooling on the flat roofs.	1. Water Ingress Flat roofs leak over time because buildings deteriorate over time. In the event of damage, the building is more susceptible to water penetration as the concrete or cement breaks down from sun and rain damage and erosion.
2. Ponding The formation of puddles on flat roofs is referred to as pooling, and it causes mould and weeds to grow in the drainage and cracks.	2. Heavier Dead Load of Building This causes the concrete decks of the building to deform, deflect, and crack under pressure.
3. Accumulation of Dirt Without slanted roofs for dirt and leaves to fall onto the ground below, flat roofs encourage unsightly depositions of small and large debris that can obstruct drainage if not properly cleaned and maintained.	3. Sharp Temperature Fluctuations The average temperature on a flat roof in Malaysia is 82°C at 1.30 pm and 17°C at 4.00 am. This sharp fluctuation causes intense stress to the flat roofs due to heat-induced expansions and contractions, accelerating wear and tear.
4. Slip Hazard Under wet climates or rainy seasons, flat roofs are slip hazards to people.

Let Nano-G Help You Waterproofing Your Building

Drainage systems may look simple, but require complex calculations for them to be effective and safe for residents of the building.

So, what should you be looking for in sourcing the best waterproofing system to use for concrete flat roofs?

Homeowners and building managers are looking into alternatives for waterproofing their flat roofs due to the intrusive, noisy, messy, and costly nature of hacking up and replacing the existing cement screed and other components.

Thus, coatings and membranes have become the preferred waterproofing method due to their ease of installation.

However, convenience aside – homeowners and building managers must also take into consideration the following factors when evaluating the effectiveness and cost-efficiency of their preferred waterproofing method for concrete flat roofs:

1. The waterproofing method should accommodate the unique degradation mechanisms of your existing building.
2. The initial acquisition costs and life-cycle costs must be accounted for.
3. The contractors involved should have control over the quality of the materials and detailing to ensure optimal performance of the outcome.

Nano-G’s hospital-grade nanotechnology waterproofing solution is proven highly effective in solving water leakage problems on flat roofs.

Effective Nanotechnology Waterproofing for Landed Homes

Did you know that it’s not just the bathrooms and toilets of a home that need to be waterproofed?

Settling down in a nice landed property is the dream for many. It’s not an easy goal to reach- but you’ve done it! Still, we find that many homeowners should take into account that there are some extra preventative measures they can take to keep their property looking good and free from wear-and-tear damage for longer, including waterproofing their landed home.

We hear you KB! It gets very frustrating when a new home we move into has water leakage issues.

Here are 4 areas at landed home that need waterproofing!

1. Bathrooms are the cause of most water damage issues at home.

First-floor bathrooms and toilets are a common site for waterproofing issues indoors as they get wet regularly. Without proper bathroom ventilation, moisture from a shower will collect and seep into your grouts! If you’re unlucky, these wet grouts will develop cracks, letting water droplets eventually break through the ceiling below. By the time you notice a leakage problem, your wall or ceiling would have yellow stains.

Some telltale signs of water damage in your home can be seen from mould build up in the corners of your bathroom! Grimey and slimy grouts are difficult to clean because of how deeply the bacteria, mould, and other microbes have seeped into the concrete.

2. Your balcony is at risk of water damage!

Water leakage issues that happen from balcony areas are likely to cause chipping paint on your ceilings and walls. These issues are likely to spread from the balcony to the car porch area, too. It should be noted that both concrete or wooden balconies in humid or rainy environments are at higher risk of damage in humid or rainy environments, as they are exposed to water for longer.

Your balcony should have a drainage system that keeps water from pooling into a pond. Unfortunately, these drainage systems are likely to get clogged with grime, mould, or dirt. Pressure from this pool of dirty water would cause hairline cracks to form on your balcony, allowing water to seep through to the ceiling or wall below.

Nano-G Waterproofing Flat Roof and Balcony Leaking

DJ Chan Fong is planning ahead when it comes to preparing his landed property for Malaysia’s rainy and humid weather. In providing the balcony with an additional Nano-G Nanotechnology Waterproofing layer, he’s keeping the grouts in his landed home safe from stains, microbial growth, and more.

However, you can prevent this by making sure your wooden or tiled balcony areas are properly waterproofed. Nano-G recommends homeowners use our Nano-G Nanotechnology Waterproofing solution as it doesn’t affect the appearance of their balcony tiles while keeping them easy-to-maintain. Our clear, hydrophobic solution makes it difficult for grime, or unwanted microbial organisms from latching on and spreading on the surface.

3. Concrete flat roofs are known to pool water and cause water leakage issues on the ceilings below.

Uneven surfaces collect still water, causing hairline cracks to form from the pressure over time. As a homeowner, you may see this often near air-con outdoor unit areas or at the water reserve tank area. These areas are prone to dampness and are likely to influence water leakage to occur over time.

Many homeowners will see water damage issues at their car porch area, they will notice that a puddle of water has formed somewhere that is covered. This is often a result of the roof above, or water had seeped through in the gutters or drainage corners. By choosing to keep your home in tip-top shape, you keep your home looking as new as the day you bought it for longer.

Notice your concrete flat roof leaking and growing black with mould? It’s time to give your roofs a thorough cleanse and waterproofing with Nano-G Nanotechnology Waterproofing. On top of removing built-up dirt, mould, and grime in your rood, we provide an additional service of painting an extra protective coating too. This service is available upon request.

4. Your home’s exterior walls are likely to get weather damaged, too.

Home may provide a safe shelter for us from heavy rains and hot suns- but they need maintenance and protection too. As your home ages, you might have noticed that its exterior walls have become stained with rain, dirt, and dust. A lot of times they accumulate in places that are hard to reach and clean by hand.

When it comes to providing homeowners with the best nanotechnology waterproofing solution in the market, Nano-G is your go-to expert.

It’s not enough to just use regular house paint on these exterior walls. By applying a proper waterproofing layer, dirt, dust and chrome can easily be cleaned by the rain. This is especially helpful with Nano-G Nanotechnology Waterproofing, our solution that creates a strong coating around your exterior walls that shields the surfaces of landed home from the environment.

5. Your swimming pool area is not safe from water damage, either!

Pools are a great feature to add to your home. They give family and visitors a fun activity to do on weekends, but they can also become a source of headache if not thoroughly maintained. It should be noted that it’s not only the inside of the swimming pool itself that needs to be waterproofed but also the surrounding swim deck. Not only is the swim deck constantly wet, but the swim deck is also at risk of deteriorating from the chemicals from the water too, creating cracks that reach the swimming pool underground. As you can imagine, this waterproofing failure goes unseen.

Nano-G Waterproofing Swimming Pool Issue

Prevention is better than renovation. Badly planned swimming pools are at risk of waterproofing failure. A good practice from homeowners is to thoroughly waterproof their swimming pool decks, tiles and drains with a waterproofing solution that lasts.

Luckily for you, our experts offer Nano-G Nanotechnology Waterproofing services anywhere in the home. Our powerful nanotechnology solution is suitable for use on most surfaces that come into contact with water often. After inspecting your premise, we help plan and apply the solution near swimming pool areas at risk of waterproofing failure or damage over time.

Nano-G New Homeowners Should Waterproof Their Homes

If these water leakage issues sound and look familiar to you, feel free to contact our Nano-G waterproofing experts for a FREE inspection of your landed home. Many of Nano-G’s past projects are with homeowners who were facing persistent water leaking all over the house that they just can’t seem to pinpoint. Our inspection team comes with high-tech thermal scanners that can give you a clearer diagnostic of your problem than your regular contractor.

Nano-G How to Determine Reliable Waterproofing Services

How Do I Know If a Waterproofing Solution Is Reliable & Effective?

Looking for a reliable waterproofing solutions provider can be incredibly difficult for home or business owners that aren’t familiar with the industry. Here are some tips on what to keep an eye out for when hiring.

It is not enough to just look into the type of waterproofing solution you need for your home, office, or building. Aside from price comparisons, you have to take into account the company’s reputation as well. In the past, you might rely on recommendations from family and friends to know the quality of work provided by service providers. Choosing a reliable waterproofing solution is crucial for long-term protection.

Instead of relying only on word-of-mouth recommendations, keep an eye out for reviews, awards, and certifications when researching for a good waterproofing contractor or service provider for your home.

1. Look into what past clients have to say about a company’s quality of service

Nano-G takes an extra step in documenting the feedback we receive from our clients on the work we do. We believe that the customer experience and innovative solutions come hand-in-hand when delivering a satisfaction-guaranteed waterproofing solution.

The most pressing matter a property owner, like you, should be worried about is the quality of service of a solution. Quality waterproofing rectification work should last long and come with professional on-site practices. To champion this, many companies will promise their solutions to last for years, or for their team to have the best on-site service. This may be in their non-toxic or fast 24-hour application time. To see if their claims are true, have a look into actual client feedback to get a better idea of a service provider’s quality of work.

With Nano-G, we don’t have to close our restaurant as they get work done within few days. I’m very satisfied with their amazing product and their efficiency. They also contacted me back for updates on the problem. I recommend this service to any restaurants that suffer from the same waterproofing issues.

Mr Jega, La Cocina Restaurant, Taipan, Selangor

I was introduced to Nano-G by a testimonial customer for their practical, high technology, and eco-friendly method of waterproofing. The service team were punctual and worked on time. Every service was professionally done. I would definitely recommend my friends and relatives having the same problem to try out Nano-G for an environmental-friendly solution.

Mdm Pauline Toh, Taman Tun Dr Ismail, Kuala Lumpur

2. Note down if official recognition was received for the specific waterproofing method they provide

Once you’ve settled for a reliable waterproofing solution of your choice, engage with a service provider that has received official recognition for the specific solution they use. This form of recognition is given by the peers that approve of the quality of the product used by a company’s on-site team. It lowers the risk of having to deal with work that does not reach industry standards.

Be wary of companies that offer a wide range of methods but hold no certifications for any of their solutions. Imagine, a company convinces you to spend hundreds or thousands on the service they provide, only to have their solution be of poor quality that just does not stand the test of time!

Nano-G is recognised by Malaysia’s NanoVerify group. They operate under the Ministry of Energy, Science, Technology, Environment and Climate Change (MESTECC) and SIRIM QAS International. As the gatekeepers and pioneers of the nanotechnology community, NanoVerify is the only designated certification programme to verify a company’s nanotechnology solution and service claims to match the standards in the industry. It is in their best interest that the quality of Nano-G’s products are representative of the field to push for the integration of nanotechnology in the nation’s everyday life.

We should also mention that Nano-G Nanotechnology Waterproofing solution is manufactured using a special Greek Technology. It’s a revolutionary nanotechnology solution that has been quality checked by trusted quality assurance boards in Greece and Beijing.

3. Make sure your service provider is using safe and sustainable solutions

Aside from industry-specific recognition, you can look into the sustainability of how their businesses are carried out. Conventional waterproofing materials use harsh and strong-smelling chemicals that can be harmful when inhaled during and even after application. Contractors and workers handling these materials have to follow internationally recommended protocols when applying the materials to avoid causing harm to themselves, the property, and the people that live on the premises.

Nano-G Uses Eco-friendly and Sustainable Waterproofing Solutions

To make sure our company is on the right track of delivering quality services, we use a special nanotechnology solution that has received international recognition from the most stringent environmental certification boards around the world.

Nano-G Nanotechnology Waterproofing Solution is Certified and Recognised

United Kingdom Accreditation System (UKAS) is an internationally-acclaimed certification awarded only to manufacturers, businesses, or service providers that maintain their competence, and conformity to the quality assessments they provide.

Lloyd’s Register ISO9001 is a global certification awarded to businesses that continue to improve and maintain their practices to meet the expectations of their customers and stakeholders. That means all our experts, administrators, consultants, and management team comply with a strict ISO when conducting themselves.

ISO14001 is awarded to businesses who use environmentally friendly, low in Volatile Organic Compounds (VOC) solutions that don’t harm the environment during our manufacturing, or application stage. This also indicates that the solution is non-toxic and safe for commercial use in homes, offices, or businesses.

The Singapore Green Label Scheme holds the most stringent environmental standards in the market, and Nano-G Nanotechnology Waterproofing has gained their approval with our solution and on-site servicing.

4. Official Recommendation from respected local authorities

The highest honour any company can receive is an official recommendation by the local ministry that is not part of our industry. These institutions serve almost like a formal representation of all the clients we receive, and it is no easy feat to get institutional support.

With the reputation of our workmanship and internationally-acclaimed nanotechnology waterproofing solution, Nano-G is the appointed waterproofing company by the Ministry of Health Malaysia to serve all government hospitals. Our clean, hassle-free, and noise-free on-site services do not interrupt the day-to-day activities of medical staff members and patients in hospitals.

We’ve listed five criteria to look for when hiring a service, be sure to keep them in mind when making your comparisons between companies. Always remember that most service providers will only highlight the pros of their solutions. The best way to gauge if their services are reliable and effective is by looking into the types of certifications or recommendations they have received, especially for reliable waterproofing solution.

That being said, it doesn’t hurt to have a chat with a customer service representative as well! With respect to our customer’s enquiries, we in Nano-G try our best to be as transparent and open as we can to our customer enquiries- without revealing our trade secrets, of course.

Nano-G's Waterproofing Solution for Condominiums and Apartments

Effective Waterproofing for Condos & Apartments

The Ministry of Health (MOH)’s top service provider to give your property an immediate water leak fix.

The best part about owning your own space is the absolute privacy and pride of having a nice place you can call your own. In high rise, this peace is often disrupted by a downstairs neighbour experiencing a persistent water leak coming from YOUR unit! Now, dealing with inter-floor waterproofing issues can be quite stressful especially if you live in condos and apartments. In Malaysia’s Strata Management Act, if water leakage is experienced through the downstairs neighbour’s ceiling, the upstairs neighbour is responsible to fix the issue.

This whole process can be quite complicated and troublesome for you, the upstairs’ neighbour, because you’ll have to find the right waterproofing solutions provider that won’t leave your home dusty and musty after a long few days of renovation work.

We’ll cut to the chase, instead of combing through hundreds of possible service providers, call Nano-G. We are formally recognised by the Ministry of Health (MOH) to pull off a professional, hassle-free, no-hacking waterproofing service!

1. We deliver an effective & immediate water leak fix on compromised ceilings, floors, and walls within 24 to 48 hours.

Nano-G Waterproofing Solutions are Fast and Effective

Our solution tackles leaking bathroom problems at common problem area; the grouts! Once dried, expect your bathroom to cause no more water leaking issues to your neighbours downstairs.

The nanotechnology waterproofing solution we use is industry-approved by NanoVerify, the pioneers of nanotechnology solutions backed by QAS SIRIM International. That means our solution is tested and checked by industry experts as to being true to our word- satisfaction guaranteed!

Not only that, our projects don’t take any longer than 24 hours to apply, clean and dry for small rooms (like toilets), and 48 hours for bigger sized areas. On top of giving you a hassle-free and speedy service, we also go the extra mile in patching up the damage your water leakages have caused. This is our personal SOP we provide free of charge.

Our qualifications and speedy project times are what ultimately let us get one foot through the door in our industry. The next thing we knew, we had become the MOH’s trusted and preferred waterproofing experts for government hospitals across Malaysia.

2. Our no-hacking Nano-G Nanotechnology Waterproofing method keeps our service dust-free.

Nano-G Nanotechnology Waterproofing uses a no-hacking method when conducting our services. We believe that if there aren’t any major faults in your existing floor tiles, you shouldn’t have to hack, knock, drill, or grind on your tiles when they’re still in good shape!

Unlike many conventional waterproofing methods, Nano-G Nanotechnology Waterproofing requires no hacking, drilling, or knocking during our onsite service which makes it the best choice for condos. Instead, our on-site SOP has us preparing the work area to be clean and free from debris before applying our solution in the grouts of the bathroom, balcony, or kitchen. After application, we will do another round of cleaning to make sure we leave your home spotless and waterproofed.

What’s the difference between hacking and no-hacking waterproofing?

3. Noise-free, lets you go about your day at ease.

Because our solution doesn’t hack, drill, or knock on your floors to work, our solution doesn’t create any noise disturbances that will disrupt your daily routine. In fact, this reason is why many hospitals or care centres like to engage with our services in the first place.

Our criteria to solve this (waterproofing) problem was we don’t want to disturb the mothers, our business, and the babies. Since our business is ongoing, if there’s hacking and dust, our whole centre will not be able to operate… After engaging with Nano-G’s services, I realised their staff were very fast and also very professional and did not affect the mother’s or baby’s rest.

Mr Edward, Woyo Confinement Centre

4. An eco-friendly, non-toxic solution that doesn’t require homeowners to leave the house during the application process.

Nano-G Provides an Eco-friendly and Sustainable Water Proofing Solutions

Nano-G Nanotechnology Waterproofing solution is SGLS-approved to be a non-toxic and sustainable alternative for homes. SGLS stands for the Singaporean Green Labelling Scheme, Singapore’s leading certification board that holds the region’s most stringent environmental standards in the market.

On top of being dust-free, our solution is a certified eco-friendly solution that has been approved by the Singaporean Green Labeling Scheme (SGLS). The Singaporean certification has our region’s most stringent rules when it comes to labelling a solution as environmentally conscious and sustainable. This certification also means that homeowners don’t have to vacate the home during the application process because the solution itself doesn’t release harmful fumes during the drying process.

5. A water-repellent, hydrophobic solution that seals up cracks, preventing further waterproofing failure and making floors easier to clean in condos in the long run.

Our Nano-G Nanotechnology Waterproofing solution provides a protective layer that keeps water from being able to seep into a surface’s cracks or pores. This ultimately prevents water from seeping through, causing water leakage issues to persist.

We tackle water leakage issues from the source. Many times, waterproofing in condos and apartments, especially for bathrooms or tiled areas has issues with grouts. They cause issues for homeowners because of cracks that form from wear-and-tear over time. Unfortunately, these cracks and the porous surfaces are where bacteria and mould would grow.

Our nanotechnology waterproofing solution is able to penetrate into the thinnest cracks and smallest pores found in your grout’s surfaces. Basically, our solution seals the holes and cracks to prevent water from seeping through. At the same time, our solution will also prevent bacteria and mould from clinging to your grouts.

In the long run, cleaning your floors will require less scrubbing and the use of harsh cleaning agents to get rid of microbial buildup.

Thanks to the way our solution works, we were able to serve many government hospitals.

Nano-G Hacking or No Hacking Waterproofing Solutions

Should I Use a Hacking or No-Hacking Waterproofing Method for Water Leaking Issues?

Looking for a quick fix to your waterproofing issues but a little confused on how different methods may benefit your home, business, or office? Here is a simple explainer on hacking or no-hacking waterproofing solutions.

As a property owner, looking for waterproofing fixes can be quite stressful! You might be wondering “How many off days do I have to sacrifice for a full renovation of my leaking bathroom?”, “If I take on a no-hacking service, will it be just as effective?”, or “Which is the best solution for my home, office, or business, really?”

First and foremost, what is the difference between Hacking and No-Hacking waterproofing?

Hacking waterproofing requires the contractor to hammer, or knock at your flooring to fix water leakage issues. The contractor will usually be required to hack out your tiles and failed waterproofing membranes to reapply a new waterproofing solution. Once the solution is fully dried, a new concrete screed is to be applied before the new tiles are laid down on top of it. While hacking methods really do help renew your property’s structural waterproofing, this is a very noisy and dusty process!

Perfectly fine tiles have to be cracked and scraped off your surfaces during the hacking process. If you aren’t willing to let your nice bathroom tiles go to waste, hacking waterproofing should be your last resort!

Many homeowners realise too late that their homes remain dusty even after a thorough cleaning. On top of the mess, you may not be able to actually use your bathroom, balcony, or kitchen during the days or weeks it takes for the solutions to completely dry. That is why we only recommend hacking methods as the last resort when no-hacking methods have failed. Discomfort aside, the micro-dust particles in the air and on surfaces are quite hazardous for loved ones with asthma or other respiratory issues.

Hacking waterproofing is a form of renovation work that requires your contractor to knock open your flooring to solve issues. Oftentimes, this method leaves the home in a big dusty mess that gets into hard-to-reach corners, bedding materials, clothes, and more.

On the other hand, no-hacking waterproofing methods are less invasive. One example of an effective no-hacking method is Nano-G Nanotechnology Waterproofing. Our solution deals directly with hairline cracks that cause water seepage issues in your bathroom, kitchen, balcony, or even car porch. We use an innovative nanotechnology waterproofing solution that penetrates deep into surfaces, providing grouts and flat roofs hydrophobic protection that prevents water from getting absorbed into the concrete. The Greek technology we use to create our solution has been certified by the world’s most stringent environmental standards from the ISO and the Singapore Green Labeling Scheme. To add to that, we are appointed by the Ministry of Health (MOH) as the go-to experts in waterproofing maintenance and rectification for government hospitals nationwide.

Nano-G Hacking And No Hacking Waterproofing Solution Comparison

Are no-hacking waterproofing methods reliable? Here are some of our past articles that look into the different conventional no-hacking waterproofing currently available in the market.

We recommend homeowners only resort to hacking waterproofing when they plan on renovating their entire bathroom, balcony, or kitchen floor. This is especially the case for older buildings, as these ageing structures may not be able to handle the force caused during operations.

Figuring out what’s really causing your water leak is the first step to determining if you should choose a hacking or no-hacking method. Read up on how to tell the difference between a broken pipe or a hairline crack!

Nano-G How To Deal With Water Leaks At Home

Our clients have remarked that Nano-G Nanotechnology Waterproofing has helped persistent water leakage issues go away for good!

Water leakage problem occurred in my bathroom a few years ago. Before Nano-G, I initiated 4 different other services but saw no good results. Nano-G remains the only solution to this problem.
Dato Azmi from Shah Alam

We should mention that we are not disregarding conventional hacking waterproofing methods. Some homes with especially bad cases of waterproofing failure should get the proper treatments needed to solve the issues once and for all. In cases where water leakages are caused by hairline cracks, however, one should consider using Nano-G Nanotechnology Waterproofing. We ensure a hassle-free, dust-free, and no-noise on-site procedure with a timely application drying time.

Nano-G Nanotechnology Waterproofing’s track record of delivering an effective final solution for all our clients reflects how good our services are at fixing water leakages, as well as preventing them altogether. If you are still unsure about the reliability of our service and solution, our standard package offers our clients a 2-years warranty for us to come back if there should be any recurring leakages after our rectification work.
