Find your area to read what is typical for roofs there, and to reach the local waterproofing pages.
We connect homeowners, landlords and bodies corporate with waterproofing contractors across the Johannesburg metro. Our local pages are grouped into four areas, because properties in each tend to share the same kind of roof: the age of the housing, whether the roofs are pitched tile or flat concrete, and whether the roof belongs to one owner or to a body corporate.
The northern suburbs mix large freehold stands, older family homes and dense townhouse complexes, and the roofs follow: pitched tile, flat concrete and everything between. We connect you with a contractor who covers Sandton, Fourways and Bryanston.
Randburg, Roodepoort and Northcliff carry a lot of Johannesburg's middle-aged housing stock, and the roofs show it. Waterproofing here is often as much about the roof reaching the end of its first coating as about a single leak.
Alberton and Kempton Park sit on the southern and eastern side of the metro, where larger stands and the hail belt make the roof a more exposed part of the house. We connect you with a contractor who covers the south-east.
Midrand and Benoni hold two very different kinds of roof: the newer estate and commercial developments of Midrand, and Benoni's older mining-era houses under heavy tree cover. Both need a contractor who reads the roof first.
The same job can look very different from one suburb to the next. In Sandton, Fourways and Bryanston, large homes and dense complexes mix pitched tile with flat concrete, and the body corporate often decides. In Randburg and Roodepoort, the housing is older and the coatings are further through their life. Alberton and Kempton Park take the eastern hail, and Midrand and Benoni run from new estates to older plots under heavy tree cover.
Each local page explains those conditions and links to the services most asked for there. We do not publish a suburb page unless we can say something specific and true about it, with a source.
We take enquiries from across Johannesburg, including suburbs without their own page. Send your details through the contact form and we will check whether a contractor covers your area. If none does, we will tell you rather than pass your details on regardless.
