Torch-On Waterproofing Experts

We install high-performance torch-on waterproofing systems using durable bituminous membranes designed for long-term protection. Correct preparation, precise torch application, and proper detailing are essential to achieving a watertight, reliable result.

Why Flat Roofs/Decks Fail

Flat roofs and decks are highly vulnerable to water ingress if preparation and detailing are not done correctly. Poor falls, inadequate drainage outlets, failed membranes, and weak terminations allow water to sit or penetrate beneath the surface — leading to leaks, blistering, and structural damage.

HOW WE FIX IT - PROPERLY

Torch-on waterproofing cannot be installed over unknown or compromised substrates — correct preparation and detailing are critical.

1. Strip & Inspect

Existing waterproofing is removed to allow full inspection of the substrate. This ensures hidden defects, trapped moisture, and failed detailing are identified before new work begins.

2. Preparation & Drainage Detailing

Falls, outlets, upstands, and junctions are checked and corrected where required to ensure effective drainage and prevent water pooling.

3. Torch-On Waterproofing Installation

High-performance torch-on membranes are applied using controlled torch bonding, with fully sealed overlaps and secure terminations to form a continuous waterproof barrier.

4. Final Detailing & Protection

All penetrations, edges, and transitions are carefully detailed to ensure long-term performance under thermal movement and UV exposure.
