Hi,
I am planning to reseal the exterior basement wall, which is about 5 meters long (16 feet). Now I am considering which option to choose: reactive sealing or bituminous thick coating. Are there any practical experience reports on this? Reactive sealing is said to have advantages in application, but is it really recommended? For example, WeberSuperflex d24 or Mem Express dicht.
Bitumen, on the other hand, has a proven long-term track record.

So I can use Weber reactive waterproofing or Remmers without any worries and don’t have to worry that over time it performs worse than the well-known bitumen.As long as you choose a product suitable for your specific project: yes.Well, my project is to waterproof the exterior basement wall. The plan is:
- Clean the wall.
- Then prime it.
- Apply 2 layers of waterproofing with mesh reinforcement, including a cove fillet.
- Then install XPS insulation boards up to just below ground level.
- Then install a dimpled membrane up to above ground level. The termination point is the edge of the terrace.
