Waterproofing & Moisture Control

Start with a Bulletproof Perimeter Eaves and roof-to-wall joints are the most common leak points in finished attics. Sequence drip edge over ice-and-water shield at eaves, then underlayment laps correctly up-slope; at sidewalls and dormer cheeks, use step flashing layered with WRB counterflashing, never face-sealed caulk alone. Extend self-adhered membrane at valleys and around penetrations,...

Flash First, Then Insulate and Seal Begin outside with manufacturer pan flashing kits, continuous underlayment, and correctly sequenced drip edge so wind-driven rain can’t back up. Verify slope requirements and avoid placing units where intersecting valleys complicate drainage. Once watertight outside, focus inside: build straight, smooth shafts and line them with continuous insulation (rigid or...

Moisture Control Begins at the Roof Deck In a conditioned attic, unvented roof assemblies can deliver excellent comfort and airtightness—if they’re detailed to keep the roof sheathing safely above the dew point. The core principle is continuous insulation + continuous air barrier. Start by confirming roof structure and sheathing condition; repair soft spots, verify fastener...

Start at the Roof Edge Moisture control begins outside: healthy shingles or membrane, solid sheathing, and meticulous flashing at valleys, dormers, and penetrations. At eaves, continuous ice-and-water shield plus correct drip edge sequencing helps stop wind-driven rain and ice dam back-ups. Clean gutters and direct downspouts away from the foundation so bulk water cycles don’t...

Start at the Roof, Then Work Inward The best attic is dry from the outside in. Verify roof health before finishes: intact shingles or membrane, sound sheathing, and flawless flashing at penetrations, dormers, valleys, and chimneys. In snow-prone seasons, proper insulation and air sealing at the roofline reduce ice dams, while a continuous ice-and-water shield...

Modern New York kitchen renovations rely on advanced waterproofing methods to protect apartments from costly water damage. One common solution is the use of liquid-applied waterproofing membranes beneath tile floors and walls, creating a continuous barrier against moisture. Sheet membranes, such as polyethylene or composite systems, are also installed behind backsplashes, under countertops near sinks,...
