The Sikafloor®-RB 58 system was chosen to carry out repairs at Market Way Barracks car park in Coventry. A public roof top car park had water ingress into shop retail units below and required a new car park waterproofing system. It was vital the new decking system was fast-curing and of the highest waterproofing specification to ensure refurbishment works were completed in the shortest possible time to minimise potential loss of trade for nearby retailers.

The Sikafloor®-RB 58 system, selected by Coventry City Council and their Engineer, was applied to the car park’s deteriorating concrete surface following the removal of the failing expansion joints. Firstly, Sikafloor® -11 Pronto, a two-part, medium-viscosity, fast-curing primer was applied to the car park’s 1,000m2 shot-blasted concrete substrate. To fully waterproof the deck, Sikafloor®-32 Pronto base layer was applied with glass fibre reinforcement mat.

Sikafloor®-RB 58 has helped ensure Coventry’s bustling city centre has a car park which safeguards traders against the perils of water ingress and guarantees motorists a safe and comfortable stay.
