By Siramico Coatings | Premium waterproofing solutions made in Britain
When winter brings rain, frost and unpredictable UK weather, your home’s exterior needs strong protection. That’s why more homeowners and tradespeople are turning to Liquid Rubber, an advanced flexible waterproof membrane that solves leaks and seals surfaces with ease.
If you’ve heard of Liquid Rubber but aren’t sure what it actually does, this guide explains everything including why it’s one of the most powerful waterproofing solutions on the market.
What Is Liquid Rubber?
Siramico’s Liquid Rubber is a high-performance waterproofing coating that cures into a seamless, flexible, rubber-like membrane.
Think of it as a protective skin that blocks water, seals cracks, and withstands harsh weather conditions.
How Liquid Rubber Works
Once applied, it forms a 100% waterproof, UV-resistant, elastic coating that:
-
Expands and contracts with temperature
-
Bridges cracks and prevents future splitting
-
Protects surfaces from frost damage
-
Adheres to almost any material
-
Provides long-lasting weatherproofing
A single coat often provides years of protection.
