It is better if you take help from local engineer who can give advice after seeing at site personally..However in my opinion redo terracing after dismantling the old.

Actually there are 3 opinions -
1. Redo flooring with an iron (or some other) mesh 2. Applying Dr. Fixit 3. Tiling on terrace - currently there are no tiles. only cement floor.
Which would be better for zero leakage. Also keeping relative costs in mind. | | |

In my opinion brick tile flooring is the best option.
Clean the surface of roof and lay polythene sheet on the roof than put good earth on the polythene and made proper slope for drainage of water after it lay brick tiles in mud.After cleaning the surface of tile with broom grout the tile joints with cement mortar 1:3 and do curing and do cement pointing on the joints.

1. Determine if your concrete house needs waterproofing. 2. Prepare the walls for the coating you have selected. 3. Thoroughly clean the surface of your concrete before waterproofing. 4. Use a liquid membrane for quickness and economy. | | |
