Plinth restoration
Splashing water and ground moisture at the wall base
The plinths is the interface between the façade and the building waterproofing in the area in contact with the ground. It is exposed to particularly high stresses because water from the soil, rainwater running off the façade, and splashing water all gather here.
While the part of the façade above the plinth can often go many years without exhibiting any signs of significant damage, the wall base region can be host to a number of issues such as detachment of the coating, efflorescence, or even spalling of the render over large areas. Therefore, both the visible region and the area in contact with the ground must be examined and renovated. Functional plinth waterproofing is needed on the load-bearing structure, and render waterproofing may also be required too.

Plinth waterproofing with MB products
As several types of waterproofing often come together at the base of a building, problems have frequently occurred at material transitions due to insufficient adhesion of the waterproofing materials and due to different mechanical and thermal properties of the substrate to be waterproofed or the building materials used. But now that's a thing of the past!

Application
Plinth waterproofing in detail with the plinth guide
With the entry into force of DIN 15833 “Waterproofing of elements in contact with soil”, a detailed description now exists for waterproofing in the plinth region. For the building base, a distinction is made between water exposure class W1-E for the transition area of the vertical building waterproofing in contact with the ground according and W4-E for the splash water protection in the base area.
The Remmers plinth guide has been developed on the basis of the current waterproofing standards and regulatory framework of the WTA. It explains the connection between the correct implementation of waterproofing measures and suitable waterproofing products.
