Water flooding test

Water flooding test should be done on the waterproofing membrane after it has fully cured for 48 hours. Use about 15cm water for 8 hours or leave overnight. Check for leaks on the walls and the underside of the applied area for leaks (check from the floor below). If leak is found, note its location, remove ponded water, dry out as much as possible and recoat the affected areas with one more coat. If no leakage is detected in the flows and walls, proceed with surfacing.
