Its installation is safer because it does not require fire and needs less maintenance. The asphalt fabric can be more economical at the beginning, but its useful life is shorter.  <\/p>\n  <\/div>\n\n  <div class=\"faq-item\">\n    <h3>How long does a tarpaulin last?<\/h3>\n    <p>Under normal conditions, roofing felt has a useful life of 5 to 7 years. With the passage of time, it dries out, cracks and loses its waterproofing capacity, causing leaks. <\/p>\n  <\/div>\n\n  <div class=\"faq-item\">\n    <h3>What are the main disadvantages of roofing felt?<\/h3>\n    <p>Its main disadvantages are its low durability, degradation due to solar exposure, cracks due to structural movements, slower and more dangerous installation with a blowtorch, and the need for frequent maintenance.<\/p>\n  <\/div>\n\n  <div class=\"faq-item\">\n    <h3>What are the advantages of a waterproofing membrane over roofing membrane?<\/h3>\n    <p>Modern waterproofing sheets, such as Water-Stop, are lighter, more flexible and durable. They are installed without fire, with cementitious adhesives, and are better adapted to irregular surfaces and structural cracks. <\/p>\n  <\/div>\n\n  <div class=\"faq-item\">\n    <h3>Can a waterproofing membrane be laid over an old asphalt membrane?<\/h3>\n    <p>Yes, in many cases it is possible to install a waterproofing membrane over an existing asphalt membrane, provided that the surface is clean, stable and properly prepared.<\/p>\n  <\/div>\n\n  <div class=\"faq-item\">\n    <h3>What is the difference between an asphalt sheet and the Water-Stop waterproofing membrane?<\/h3>\n    <p>The asphalt sheet is composed of modified bitumen and requires heat to install, which makes its application slower and more dangerous. The Water-Stop waterproofing membrane, on the other hand, is installed with cement glue, without fire, is more flexible, lighter and maintains its waterproofing properties for many more years. <\/p>\n  <\/div>\n\n  <div class=\"faq-item\">\n    <h3>How long does an asphalt sheet last versus a Water-Stop waterproofing sheet?<\/h3>\n    <p>An asphalt sheet has an average service life of 7 to 10 years, depending on solar exposure. In contrast, the Water-Stop waterproofing membrane can maintain its properties for more than 20 years thanks to its multilayer thermoplastic composition and resistance to UV rays. <\/p>\n  <\/div>\n\n  <div class=\"faq-item\">\n    <h3>Can asphalt sheeting be used on walkable terraces?<\/h3>\n    <p>It can be used, but requires additional layers of protection and regular maintenance to avoid cracking. The Water-Stop waterproofing membrane is more suitable for walkable terraces, as its flexible structure and reduced thickness guarantee a lasting watertightness even under pavement. <\/p>\n  <\/div>\n<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<div class=\"elementor-element elementor-element-3792d89 e-flex e-con-boxed e-con e-parent\" data-id=\"3792d89\" data-element_type=\"container\" data-e-type=\"container\" data-settings=\"{&quot;_ha_eqh_enable&quot;:false}\">\n\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"e-con-inner\">\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-element elementor-element-dc6478e elementor-widget elementor-widget-html\" data-id=\"dc6478e\" data-element_type=\"widget\" data-e-type=\"widget\" data-widget_type=\"html.default\">\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-widget-container\">\n\t\t\t\t\t<script type=\"application\/ld+json\">{\n  \"@context\": \"https:\/\/schema.org\",\n  \"@type\": \"FAQPage\",\n  \"@id\": \"https:\/\/www.estilguru.com\/tela-asfaltica-vs-lamina-impermeabilizante\/#faq\",\n  \"mainEntity\": [\n    {\n      \"@type\": \"Question\",\n      \"name\": \"\u00bfQu\u00e9 es mejor, la tela asf\u00e1ltica o la l\u00e1mina impermeabilizante?\",\n      \"acceptedAnswer\": {\n        \"@type\": \"Answer\",\n        \"text\": \"La l\u00e1mina impermeabilizante ofrece mayor durabilidad, flexibilidad y resistencia frente al sol y los cambios de temperatura.
