FAQs
What is waterproofing and why is it important in Kenya?
Waterproofing is the process of making a surface resistant to water penetration. In Kenya, where both rainy seasons and poor drainage can lead to structural damage, waterproofing protects buildings from moisture, mold, and long-term deterioration.
How much does waterproofing cost in Kenya?
Costs vary depending on the area, type of service (e.g., bathroom, basement, roof), and materials used. We offer free site visits and quotes tailored to your property.
How do I know if my property needs waterproofing?
Common signs include peeling paint, mold growth, damp patches on walls, water pooling, or musty smells — especially in basements or bathrooms.
How long does waterproofing last?
With professional application and quality materials, waterproofing can last over 10 years, depending on environmental conditions and maintenance.
What is the best solution for rising damp in Kenyan homes?
We use industry-proven rising damp barriers and injections to prevent moisture from traveling up your walls — tailored for Kenyan climate conditions.
Do you offer bathroom waterproofing before or after tiling?
Both. For best results, we recommend waterproofing before tiling to fully seal walls and floors.
Can flat roof waterproofing stop leaks permanently?
Yes — if done correctly. We use torch-on membranes and coatings designed for flat roofs to prevent water pooling and long-term leaks.
What materials do you use for waterproofing in Kenya?
We partner with trusted brands like Sika, Fosroc, and Kalekim to provide top-grade waterproofing membranes, coatings, sealants, and grouts.
