How the inspection and quote work
On a Johannesburg North inspection we walk the flat or concrete sections, check the parapets, joints, torch-on or coated areas, and the outlets, then set out the findings in plain language before we quote.

How we waterproof a roof in Johannesburg North
A Johannesburg North roof may be tiled, sheeted or partly flat. Leaks often show up at flashings, parapets, box gutters and older coatings, especially after summer storms. We inspect the roof, identify where water is getting in, and set out whether a roof repair, a new coating or a membrane is needed. If a broken tile or a roof-edge issue is the cause, we will explain that waterproofing is not the right work for that problem.
Roofs in Johannesburg North often leak at flashings, parapets, box gutters and older coatings after summer storms. We inspect first and quote only for the waterproofing that is needed. On flat or concrete sections we look at the existing system, the upstands and the outlets. See our flat roof waterproofing page for more on that type of roof.
What we look at
On a typical visit we look at the covering, the flashings around pipes, skylights and abutments, gutters and outlets, and any flat or concrete sections. We will tell you what we have found in plain language and quote only for the work that is needed.
Waterproofing is for the roof itself – flashings, valleys, parapets, box gutters, flat sections and failed coatings – so that water stays out. If the problem is rising damp in the walls, that is a different job; see our damp proofing page. We inspect first, explain the cause, and quote before we start. Work is carried out to SABS standards.

Roof waterproofing Johannesburg North FAQs
When does a Johannesburg North roof need waterproofing rather than a repair?
Waterproofing is for the roof itself – flashings, parapets, box gutters, flat sections and failed coatings. If the leak is coming from a broken tile or a failed roof-edge detail, we will say so and explain whether a roof repair is more appropriate. A typical visit starts with an inspection, then a quote for the work that is actually needed. Work is carried out to SABS standards.
Do you waterproof flat roofs in Johannesburg North?
Yes. On flat or concrete sections we look at the existing system, the upstands and the outlets, and we explain whether a coating or a membrane is needed. Roofs in Johannesburg North are typically tiled, sheeted or partly flat. We waterproof the details that need it, including flashings, parapets and flat sections. See our flat roof waterproofing page for more on that type of roof.
Is roof waterproofing the same as damp proofing?
No. Roof waterproofing is for the roof covering and its details, so that water stays out. Rising damp in the walls is a different job; see our damp proofing page. If both issues are present, we will explain that after the inspection and quote only for the work that is needed.
