So far, the crew is professional and friendly, and the cost is reasonable. One big thanks to Procompare team for helping me find them!
My husband and I were able to compare 5 balcony waterproofing quotes, all from companies in our area, and we were pleasantly surprised by the reasonable pricing. The whole experience was excellent and I can only recommend Mr Botha and his crew to everyone that needs waterproofing.
My wife and I decided to hire Cameron because he had the best references and presented a reasonable quote. We’re happy that we chose him because he advised us about the best solution for waterproofing our balcony, was always available to answer our questions, but he was also so patient and friendly. Thank you so much for all your hard work and thank you to Procompare team!
First step before waterproofing an area is to clean the surface to remove dust, grease, rust, paint and any other material which may affect the adhesion of coatings. After cleaning the surfaces, verify the dectivity and if necessary fix it in order to avoid water stagnation. Lastly, prepare the surface (the preparation process will depend on the type of surface).
A properly installed waterproofing system should last you anytime between 10 and 15 years. On the contrary, a poorly installed waterproofing system can cause water leakages almost immediately after it meets water, avoid such waterproofing mistakes. Roof waterproofing can last longer, especially torch on waterproofing.
Depending on the extent of damage on your waterproofing membrane and the age of it, you can choose between simple patches or a complete replacement.
Yes, waterproofing should be snow before you lay your tiles.
If the waterproofing system has failed, it is recommended that the tiles be removed in order to start the waterproofing and tiling process from scratch. While it is possible to waterproof and tile over existing tiles - provided the existing tiles are in good condition and firmly attached to the substrate - where tiles are cracked, loose or hollow sounding, or where the level of the current floor does not allow for a height increase, tiles will need to be removed and replaced.

rain water accumulates on the balcony with poor drainage and no gutters to control rain, as a result the walls downstairs start to bubble both exterior and interior
FLAT CONCRETE DECK, NEED TORCH ON SEALING
+- 50m2 - Durbigum OR Torch-on (ABE). Need a quote for the bill of quantity - hence there is no need to have people contact me. A Bill of Quantity is to establish costing. Once the client approves the estimate then an appointed contractor is informed. Pricing - includes material & labour. Draws are paid on progress and not a deposit - that tells me a contractor is not positioned financially - material on site is another matter altogether. See JCB for standard contractual info.
