Waterproofing is the process of making an object or structure waterproof or water-resistant so that it remains relatively unaffected by water or resists the ingress of water under specified conditions, such items may be used in wet environments or underwater to specified depths. Water-resistant and waterproof often refer to penetration of water in its liquid state and possibly under pressure, whereas damp proof refers to resistance to humanity or dampness. Permeation of water vapour through a material or structure is reported as a moisture vapour transmission rate. Waterproofing is used in reference to building structures (such as basements, decks, or wet areas, watercraft, canvas, clothing (raincoats or waders).

Ceiling Installation

Proskim Construction also installs different types of ceilings, like gypsum boards that are mounted onto wood brandering (thin cross beams) or can be installed onto steel brandering. It is mainly to decorate a room and to keep the room temperature normal, also to keep the dust out which is blown in from outside onto the roof and to keep birds and mice, rats outside the room. When you install (place) isotherm insulation, it keeps the room temperature warm in the winter and cool in the summer.

Drywall Installations

We offer drywall installations also known as plasterboard, wallboards, gypsum panel, sheet rock, or gypsum boards. It is a panel made of calcium sulfate dihydrate (gypsum) with or without additives, typically extruded between thick sheets of facer and backer paper, utilized in the construction of interior walls and ceilings. The plaster is mixed with fiber (typically paper or fiberglass or asbestos) plasticizer, foaming agent, and various additives that can decrease mildew, increase fire resistance, and lower water absorption.

Painting interior and exterior roofs and walls

Proskim Construction offers excellent quality painting services with only the best-skilled artisans. Painting is the practice of applying paint, pigment, colour or another medium to a solid surface.

Roof Painting

Proskim Construction offers excellent quality roof painting as well. A roof coating is a monolithic, fully adhered, fluid-applied roofing membrane. It has elastic properties that allow it to stretch and return to its original shape without damage.

Typical roof coating dry film thickness varies from paint film thickness (plus or minus dry mils) to more than 40 dry mils. The roof coating is the topmost layer of protection for the membrane, receiving the impact of sunlight (both infrared and ultraviolet) rain, hail, and physical damage. Roof coatings should not be confused with deck coatings. Deck coatings are traffic bearings designed for waterproofing areas where pedestrian (and in some cases vehicular) traffic is expected. Roof coatings will not withstand any kind of ongoing use by people or vehicles (such as walkways, patios, sundecks, and restaurants.

Demolition contrasts with deconstruction which involves taking a building apart while carefully preserving valuable elements for reuse purposes.

For small buildings such as houses that are only two or three stories high, demolition is a rather simple process. The building is pulled down either manually or mechanically using large hydraulic equipment. Larger buildings may require the use of a wrecking ball (a heavy weight on a cable that is swine by a crane into the side of the buildings). Wrecking balls are especially effective against masonry but are less easily controlled and often less efficient than other methods. Newer methods may use rotational hydraulic shears and silenced rock breakers attached to excavators to cut or break through wood, steel, and concrete. The use of shears is especially common when flame cutting would be dangerous.
