This technique is usually <span style=\"text-decoration: underline;\"><a href=\"https:\/\/theconstructor.org\/concrete\/types-waterproofing-methods-buildings\/10856\/\">applied in household internals<\/a><\/span>.

However, self-adhesive ones tend to have a shorter lifespan as they wear out over time.<\/p>\n<p>The difference between this bituminous membrane and bituminous coating (explained in the previous section) is simply in the raw form that it comes in. which dictates where they are most suitably applied.<\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-style: italic;\">Commonly used: rooftops, floors of underground structures<\/span><\/p>\n<figure id=\"attachment_19603\" aria-describedby=\"caption-attachment-19603\" style=\"width: 1000px\" class=\"wp-caption aligncenter\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"wp-image-19603 size-full\" src=\"https:\/\/www.recommend.my\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/02\/shutterstock_746474353.jpg\" alt=\"\" width=\"1000\" height=\"598\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.recommend.my\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/02\/shutterstock_746474353.jpg 1000w, https:\/\/www.recommend.my\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/02\/shutterstock_746474353-501x300.jpg 501w, https:\/\/www.recommend.my\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/02\/shutterstock_746474353-218x130.jpg 218w, https:\/\/www.recommend.my\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/02\/shutterstock_746474353-1536x918.jpg 1536w, https:\/\/www.recommend.my\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/02\/shutterstock_746474353-2048x1224.jpg 2048w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 1000px) 100vw, 1000px\" \/><figcaption id=\"caption-attachment-19603\" class=\"wp-caption-text\">Torch-on membrane being burned to the surface<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n<h2><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"Polyurethane_liquid_membrane_waterproofing\"><\/span>Polyurethane liquid membrane waterproofing<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h2>\n<p>The last method of waterproofing is also the most expensive.

This liquid membrane is also highly malleable meaning it can stretch without giving way.<\/p>\n<p>However, polyurethane is sensitive to moisture content.
