ABOUT OUR WORK
Your Local Waterproofing Experts in Somerset West
We've been protecting homes and businesses across the Helderberg for over 15 years. From coastal properties in Somerset West to heritage homes in Strand, we understand the unique challenges of our climate.
Somerset West Properties Need Specialist Waterproofing

Somerset West sits at the foot of the Helderberg, where coastal weather and the Cape winter rains put roofs and walls under constant pressure. That's why we assess every property before we quote.
Coastal corrosion
Salt air degrades seals, flashings and metal roof fixings near the coast.
Wind-driven rain
The South-Easter forces water into walls, windows and parapet joints.
Estate complexes & townhouses
Shared roofs and boundary walls need coordinated, body-corporate-friendly solutions.
Older Strand & Gordon's Bay homes
Ageing torch-on and perished damp courses that need replacing, not patching.
Waterproofing Services in Somerset West
We handle every kind of waterproofing job across Somerset West and the Helderberg, from a single leaking roof to a full estate complex.
Roof Waterproofing Somerset West
Flat, tiled, concrete and metal roofs. We assess the roof first, then recommend torch-on, acrylic or liquid rubber.

Flat Roof Waterproofing
Torch-on and liquid systems for the flat concrete roofs common on Somerset West complexes and modern homes.

Torch-On Waterproofing
Modified bitumen, properly welded, for flat and low-slope roofs; a 15–20 year life when done right.

Damp Proofing Somerset West
Rising damp, penetrating damp and salt damp on interior and exterior walls.

Wall Waterproofing
Sealed and breathable wall systems for the coastal-facing walls that take the worst of the weather.

Balcony & Deck Waterproofing
Walk-on systems for coastal balconies exposed to sun and salt.

Basement & Below-Ground Waterproofing
Bitumen and cementitious systems for foundations and retaining walls.

Bathroom & Wet Area Waterproofing
Cementitious systems bonded into the substrate for showers and wet rooms.

Emergency Leak Repairs
Same-day response when water is coming through the ceiling.

Waterproofing Contractors for Complexes & Commercial
Body corporates, business premises and estate complexes across the Helderberg.

Waterproofing Methods We Use
The right method depends on your roof type, slope, sun exposure and where the water is getting in. These are the six systems we work with.
Torch-On Waterproofing
Modified bitumen sheets welded with a gas torch. The go-to for flat concrete roofs. Properly installed, 15 to 20 years of life.
Acrylic Waterproofing
Brushed or rolled on, reinforced with a fibre membrane. Works on pitched roofs, parapets and joints.
Liquid Rubber Waterproofing
Seamless, wraps around pipes and corners, UV-stable for exposed coastal sun.
Bitumen Waterproofing
Heavy-duty below-ground system for foundations and retaining walls.
Cementitious Waterproofing
Bonded into the concrete itself for bathrooms, pools and basement walls.
Polyurethane Membrane
The most flexible system, stretches with daily temperature swings without cracking. Up to 25 years.
