Plywood Waterproofing

Waterproofing plywood can be a challenging task, as the porous nature of wood makes it difficult to create a watertight barrier. The first step in waterproofing plywood is to ensure that the surface is clean and free of any debris or contaminants that could interfere with the adhesion of the waterproofing material. The surface should also be smooth and free of any cracks or gaps.

​

There are different methods of waterproofing plywood, such as applying a waterproofing membrane, coating or paint, and ensuring proper flashing and sealing around penetrations. The choice of method will depend on the specific application and the type of exposure the plywood will be subjected to.

​

One of the main complications of waterproofing plywood is that it can be prone to movement and expansion due to changes in temperature and humidity. This can cause stress on the waterproofing membrane and lead to cracking or separation. It is important to use a flexible waterproofing product that can accommodate these movements.

Another complication is that, if not done correctly, the waterproofing may not be able to withstand heavy traffic or loads. It is important to choose a product that is suitable for the intended use and to apply it in the right thickness.
