Common waterproofing problems we fix
Flat concrete roofs, torch-on membranes, joints and parapets are the waterproofing details we most often work on in Midrand. We also look at coatings, outlets and box gutters, and we explain whether a repair of the existing system will do.
How the inspection and quote work
Once we are on the Midrand roof we check the obvious leak and the details around it: upstands, joints, parapets and any torch-on or coated flat section. We then explain the repair and quote for it. To arrange a visit, request an onsite inspection or contact us. Call 011 887 8555 or email sales@visroof.co.za. We are open Monday to Friday 8:00-17:30 and Saturday 10:00-13:00.
Roofs and details we waterproof
Whether the Midrand building has a flat concrete roof, a torch-on membrane, or a tiled or sheeted covering with failed joints and parapets, we inspect the existing system and quote for the waterproofing that is needed. Work is carried out to SABS standards.
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.
For the wider service, see roof waterproofing and flat roof waterproofing. We also work in Randburg, Sandton and Johannesburg. To arrange a visit, request an onsite inspection or contact us. Call 011 887 8555 or email sales@visroof.co.za.

How we waterproof a roof in Midrand
A Midrand 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 repair, a new coating or a membrane is needed. If the leak is coming from a broken tile or a failed gutter rather than from failed waterproofing, we will say so and quote for a roof repair in Midrand instead of waterproofing that will not fix the cause.
On flat or concrete sections we look at the existing system, the upstands and the outlets, and we explain the work required. See our flat roof waterproofing page for more on that type of roof. Related work can include roof maintenance and, where a local repair is no longer enough, re-roofing.
What we look at on a Midrand roof
On a typical visit we look at the covering, the flashings around pipes, skylights and abutments, the gutters and outlets, and any flat or concrete sections. Midrand roofs take strong summer storms and long spells of sun, which wear coatings and open joints. We will tell you what we have found in plain language and quote only for the work that is needed.

Roof waterproofing Midrand FAQs
When does a Midrand roof need waterproofing rather than a repair?
Waterproofing is needed when water is getting in through a failed coating, membrane, flashing, parapet or box gutter, rather than through a broken tile or a blocked gutter. We inspect the Midrand roof first. If the leak is coming from a failed gutter, we will say so. If a local roof repair will fix the cause, we will say so and quote for that work instead of waterproofing that will not last.
Do you waterproof flat roofs in Midrand?
Yes. Many Midrand houses, complexes and commercial buildings have flat or low-pitch sections, concrete roofs or box gutters that need a coating or a membrane. We look at the existing system, the upstands and the outlets, then explain the work required. See also our flat roof waterproofing page.
Do you waterproof roofs in Kyalami and Waterfall City?
Yes. We travel from our head office in Bloubosrand, Randburg, to waterproof roofs in Kyalami, Waterfall City and the rest of Midrand. Those two areas already have Kyalami and Waterfall City roof-repairs pages. If the inspection shows a repair is needed rather than waterproofing, we can quote for that instead.
Is roof waterproofing the same as damp proofing?
No. Roof waterproofing is for the roof itself, so rain stays out of flashings, valleys, parapets, box gutters and flat sections. Damp proofing is a different job, usually for rising or penetrating damp in the walls. If the inspection points to wall damp rather than a roof leak, we will say so and point you to our damp proofing page.
