Everything you need to know about waterproofing your home
Every South African homeowner can avoid lots of problems by waterproofing their homes.
We are moving into our new property in Rondebosch East over the next few weeks and there is a back part of the home that I need some advice on. The back part of the home has metal sheeting and I would like to extend that area roofing over the open area as well to create some privacy. Need someone reputable who will be able to give the best advice.
Over haul maintenance Wind damage thatched ripped out on roof Had an overhaul in thatch wasn’t compacted tightly resulted in draughts and thatch being ripped off in strong winds and capping needs replacement and a couple a leaks To sum up the previous overhaul was shoddy workmanship hence the problems
Portion of roof over double volume has translucent sheeting (I think it is glass fiber installed 20 years ago: 4 sheets wide and c. 1,5 M long on both sides (E and W)) which was damaged by the recent hail storm. A small hole (± 20mm) appeared after the storm. So I guess the sheets will have to be replaced with corrugated polycarbonate sheets.

Hi, I am in the process of purchasing a farm with a main building and a number of cottages. I need a quote for the main building only, which is approximately sqm. I would like to inquire about both a renovation of the existing thatch or a complete replacement. The existing thatch roof condition is as follows: 1. The dressing has been combed out and the transverse wires are visible; 2. The dressing thickness is well below the South African National minimum standards of mm; 3. The roof capping will have to be replaced; 4. There is no flashing and waterproofing at the juncture of the thatch and parapet walls (Main reason for falling damp internally) Please assist with a quote
I live in an apartment on the second floor, which is the top floor with a concrete roof and also cracks in the bathroom wall that the rain comes right through. Plus when the wind blow's dirt comes through as well. So I need that and other water also repaired. Perhaps you could please give me a call. Thanking you. .
Leaks. 2 main areas of the house: 1) front (area 1) 2) back (area 2) Front = Garage area (area 1) Back = Where new extended part of house and old extended part meet. Garage Multiple leaks at garage area that causes floor to be wet and mouldy when it rains. In garage there are beams, and at one location there is a vertical rise (wooden planks), with eroded plastic insulation. Gaps in between wooden planks as well. And then, is it leaking in other parts of roof as as well? Area 2: Over time, wear and tear occured where the two parts of the house meet (old and new, roof). Likley in the insulation structures.
Semi detached - need only my side inspected and advised on for full roof repair or replacement, really not sure. Rain gets in from I dont know where and ceilings are affected over winter. Really need help without the costs to advise but need to do something so it doesnt get any worse and it is fixed to last for another 50 years
Hello, my name is :) I am trying to find out if i can start an architectural art installation for a treehouse design. It would be a cover for the rooftop balcony and basically needs a funky shape. I have attached a concept design so far. I hope it wont be too complex and i think it can work with the structural shape of it. I hope. Thank you and hope to hear from you soon! Kind regards, .
