Water accumulation on flat surfaces poses a significant threat to modern building structures. At Mike Waterproofing, we deliver professional torch-on waterproofing that Johannesburg property owners rely on for total moisture control and structural preservation.
Torch-on waterproofing utilizes heavy-duty bitumen membranes modified with specialized polymers. Heated directly onto surfaces using an open flame torch, these membranes create a continuous, impenetrable barrier that completely seals concrete slabs, roofs, and balconies against water penetration.
Choosing high-quality torch-on membrane waterproofing provides long-lasting protection for commercial, industrial, and residential properties.
Torch-on bitumen membranes are built to withstand severe weather conditions, persistent UV exposure, and heavy standing water without cracking or deteriorating.
The hot application process fuses membrane sheets together at the seams, creating a continuous waterproof blanket across flat roofs and concrete decks.
High-density polymer-modified bitumen flexes with natural building expansion and contraction, preventing leaks caused by minor structural shifts.
Eliminating moisture ingress prevents concrete spalling, rebar corrosion, interior ceiling damage, and structural timber decay.
Our specialized team applies torch-on membrane systems across a wide range of structural surfaces:
We adhere strictly to industry standards recommended by top waterproofing guidelines to guarantee maximum adhesion and long-term performance.
We thoroughly clean the substrate, removing dust, debris, loose concrete, and existing failing coatings. Minor cracks and structural imperfections are repaired to form a solid base.
A deep penetrating bituminous primer is applied across the entire surface area to ensure optimal adhesion between the substrate and the new membrane.
Using heavy-duty propane torches, our certified technicians carefully heat the underside of 4mm high-density bitumen membranes, rolling and pressing them onto the primed surface to form a permanent bond.
All overlaps and critical seams are heat-sealed and inspected. A specialized solar reflective aluminum paint or mineral slate finish is applied to maximize UV protection and extend membrane lifespan.
Find answers to common questions about roof repairs, damp proofing, and waterproofing solutions. We are here to help you protect your property against moisture damage.
When installed by trained professionals using top-grade 4mm membranes and maintained with reflective topcoats, torch-on waterproofing systems can easily last 10 to 15 years or longer.
Existing substrates must be completely sound, dry, and clean. In many cases, old failing layers must be stripped away to ensure proper adhesion to the concrete deck.
Single layer 4mm systems offer fantastic protection for most flat roofs and balconies. Dual layer applications provide extra heavy-duty protection for high traffic decks, green roofs, and underground structures.
Protect your building structure from costly water damage. Contact our expert team today for professional advice, thorough site inspections, and reliable torch-on waterproofing solutions.
