About Roof Waterproofing Johannesburg

What we do

Roof Waterproofing Johannesburg helps people who need work on a roof or a wet wall find an independent waterproofing contractor who covers their suburb and does that kind of work. That might be a re-coating for a house in Randburg, a leak traced and repaired in Sandton, a membrane for a flat roof in Midrand, a damp-proofing diagnosis in an older Alberton home, or a phased plan for a complex in Fourways.

You send us your suburb, a short description of the roof and what you need, and how to reach you. We pass the enquiry to a suitable contractor. The contractor contacts you, looks at the roof where needed and quotes you directly. If you accept, your agreement for the work is with the contractor.

What we are not

We are not a waterproofing contractor, a builder or a roofing company. We do not waterproof, repair or inspect roofs, and we do not carry out damp-proofing. We do not hold a contractor's registration or any accreditation, and we do not offer a warranty on anyone's work.

We do not set contractors' prices and we do not warrant their work. The contractor is responsible for the quality of the work, the system they install, the warranty they offer and compliance with the rules that apply. We say this plainly on every page, because you should know who you are dealing with before you share your details or accept a quote.

What we tell you about waterproofing

We describe what the work involves and what moves the price, not what a roof will cost from a distance. A waterproofing system is only as good as the surface under it, so the preparation - cleaning, repairs, flashings and priming - is the part of a quote that matters most.

No one can promise that a roof will never leak again. That depends on the system chosen and the state of the roof underneath. A good contractor matches the system to your roof and stands behind their work; anyone who promises a leak-free roof is promising something no one can deliver.

What we publish, and what we do not

Our pages explain waterproofing choices and Johannesburg conditions in plain language, so that you can describe the job well and compare quotes. We write about the factors that move a quote rather than prices, because contractors set their own prices and we will not publish figures that a contractor has not confirmed in writing.

For the same reason, we do not publish ratings, review scores, years of experience, registration numbers or response times that we cannot stand behind. Where we describe the technical side of waterproofing, we use published sources and link to them. If a fact is not confirmed, we leave it out.

How contractors are chosen

We pass enquiries to contractors who cover the suburb concerned and who do the type of work requested.

If we do not have a contractor who covers your suburb or the job you need, we will tell you rather than pass your details on regardless.
