Waterproofing & Leakproofing.

Engineering-grade waterproofing for the buildings that cannot leak.

What it is

Waterproofing & Leakproofing, defined.

Twenty years specialising in waterproofing and leakproofing systems for Nigerian banks, government buildings, hospitality and serious residential. Engineer-led diagnosis, manufacturer-certified application, written multi-year guarantees on every install.

Waterproofing is the engineering of barriers - and detailing - that stop water from passing through a structural surface in the wrong direction. Leakproofing is the targeted remediation of a structure that is already leaking. We do both, and we treat them differently. A new-build flat roof needs a system specification. A leaking parapet on a 2008-built office needs a diagnosis first, then a remediation. The mistake most contractors make is using one approach for both.

Common problems

What we get called for.

  • 01Flat-roof leaks on commercial and government buildings
  • 02Bathroom and wet-area leaks bleeding into ceilings below
  • 03Balcony seepage caused by failed cold joints and parapet details
  • 04Slab penetrations leaking around HVAC and plumbing services
  • 05Recurring leaks that have been "repaired" multiple times and keep returning

Questions, answered

FAQ.

How long does waterproofing last on a flat roof in Lagos?
A properly specified and installed bituminous or liquid system, on a sound substrate, will give 10–15 years before resurfacing is required. We warranty the install for 5–10 years depending on system.
Do you do small residential jobs?
Yes. We have minimum job sizes by region, but a single residential roof or a leaking bathroom is well within scope. Send a WhatsApp message with photos and we will tell you the price band immediately.
Can you fix a leak without removing the existing finish?
Sometimes. It depends on the substrate, the failure mode and the existing system. Our inspection report will tell you whether a non-invasive injection or coating repair is viable, or whether the existing finish has to come up.
