Description
The Pro WP is a soft, polyethylene membrane that allows you to waterproof your walls or floor prior to tile installation. The Pro WP Waterproofing Membrane is pliable, watertight, and doesn’t rot. The fleece weave of the membrane ensures proper adhesion—for best results, make sure to use high quality, name-brand modified thinset. This membrane also provides crack isolation benefits of up to 1/8” movement, which can help protect your finished tile floor from cracks telegraphing upwards from the subfloor.
This roll of Pro WP Waterproofing Membrane is 39.5” by 98.5’ (323 sq. ft.).
