Looks like the paint on external wall is not really well applied. What kind of paint was that? Maybe cut cost application with no undercoat

Except for the bathroom floor, the cement are not mixed with waterproofing material because the water would just slips down the wall. However if the water is trapped, it will seep into the cement and wet the other side. So, acrylic paint will prevent this this from happening.

QUOTE(echoesian @ Jun 28 2017, 04:33 PM) A so-called waterproofing specialist contractor suggested the following with quoted 3k+ with 5 years warranty, to do something like on the pic: Wah... Looks so extensive. I dunno how many windows are there to be sealed to say if the 3k+ is worth the cost, but it should be working since they are willing to warranty for 5 years... I guess 1) Apply waterproof cement on the window frame cement surrounding 2) Apply waterproof liquid on the surrounding which penetrate into the window frame holes 3) Take off existing sealant on the frame and sill joint and reapply back new sealant Is this reliable?
