Flood Infusion Treatment

Waterproofing with flood infusion treatment is a non-invasive, chemical-based method used to treat concrete slab leakage, especially in toilets/bathrooms (without removing tiles), balconies, and kitchens.

What Is Flood Infusion Waterproofing?

Flood infusion waterproofing involves flooding a concrete slab (e.g., a tiled bathroom floor) with a chemical infusion solution for several hours to allow deep penetration into the slab through grout joints or porous surfaces. At Winborne, we use our proprietary Winborne Permeate-Seal solution, which is a non-toxic, environmentally friendly product specifically formulated for tiled and concrete floor leakage.

For leakage at exposed areas such as tiled balconies where it is not feasible to soak the floor with chemical solution for several hours, we use a high-pressure pumping system to inject the chemical solution into the concrete slab. This waterproofing method is called Infusion Treatment, and it is commonly used for tiled balconies, car porches, and kitchen floors.

How Flood Infusion Waterproofing Is Done

Flood Infusion Treatment is usually done by professional waterproofing contractors, and here's what the process looks like:

Step 1

Surface Preparation

  • Clean the tiled area thoroughly to remove soap scum, oils, or dirt
  • Grout may be lightly abraded to aid absorption
Step 2

Application of Infusion Agent

  • A chemical infusion solution is poured over the floor and allowed to flood the area
  • The chemical penetrates the grout lines, capillaries, and cracks in the floor slab
Step 3

Flood Soaking Time

The solution is left to soak for 4 to 12 hours depending on severity

Step 4

Curing & Drying

After soaking, the excess is removed. The area is rinsed and left to cure naturally. The treated area should be left unused for 24 hours

Step 5

Monitoring

The ceiling below should be monitored for a few days to confirm that seepage has stopped. Optionally, grout lines can be sealed afterward for reinforcement
