Vetted waterproofing specialists in Alberton. Book now.

In Alberton, waterproofing usually lands between R180 and R450 per m² depending on the system: liquid membranes at the lower end, torch-on at the higher end. A minimum charge applies to small jobs, and stripping or screed repairs are itemised. A written guarantee of five to ten years is normal for a full system.

If the extension has a flat concrete roof, it needs a full membrane system with proper falls and outlets, plus a sealed join where the new roof meets the existing wall. That join is where most extension leaks happen. Book the waterproofer before the ceiling goes in.

It should. Reputable specialists in Alberton give a written guarantee, typically five to ten years for a full system and shorter for patch repairs. Read what voids it, such as foot traffic or other trades drilling through the membrane, and keep the invoice somewhere safe.

Look for blistering, cracking or lifting membrane, ponding water that never drains, and damp patches or peeling paint on ceilings and walls below. Moss or plants growing on a flat roof are another sign. Catching it early usually means a repair rather than a full redo.
