Mixing grout with SBR

i would say it depends on the ratio of sbr in the render as to the percentage of waterproofing !

To me though Dave, it would only be a quick fix & it will eventually fail.
You know as well as I do that water that will find it's way in through any little hole.
Do it right the 1st time & problem is solved.
 
Certainly stef ! sorry i was thinking about making a waterproof render with SBR :lol: and not really thinking about the question originally asked .......... 😳

EPDM is not an option. It's a terrace that is being used as a little garden in summer. I know EPDM is a good solution but in my opinion for roofs that are not being used.

Couldn't an EPDM be fitted as a tanking system and then a surface finish applied?

It would guarantee a leak free roof.

We got a kit from these people for our garden office http://www.rubber4roofs.co.uk/

All it is is a tanking membrane, just substantially thicker than a regular tiling tanking system.
 
Sorry to high jack this thread!
Alan, I stumbled across your garden office thread yesterday, love it by the way!, did u ever post final pictures of the office and the chairs you were designing?
Marc.

These were a pair of Alfa Romeo passenger seats I picked up on eBay (the drivers seats get snapped up and cost a lot more).

I bought some short gas rams and a base also from ebay then got a local engineer to make a custom subframe for both seats.

Total cost was around £300 for the pair, which was a bargain, and they are very comfy.

Outstanding Alan! That's really quite slick, those chairs turned out amazing!
Absoloutely love the office, inside and out.
I've got to build my workshop/shed/man cave this year (summerhouse if u listen to the wife! Haha)
If it turns out anywhere near as good as that I'll be a happy camper. :thumbsup:

Can't recommend this construction system highly enough.

Outside timber is cedar treated with OSMO UV oil. Bought from these people http://www.benchmarktimber.co.uk/
