What is the best waterproofing for Cape Town's climate?
For Cape Town's winter rainfall and UV exposure, torch-on waterproofing and APP modified bitumen membranes are most effective for roofs. For basements and below-grade applications, cementitious waterproofing with membrane systems works best. We assess each property and recommend the most suitable waterproofing system based on your specific needs, budget, and building type.
How long does waterproofing last in Cape Town?
Professional waterproofing in Cape Town lasts 10-20 years depending on the system. Torch-on waterproofing lasts 15-20 years, membrane systems 10-15 years, and acrylic coatings 5-10 years with maintenance. Lifespan depends on proper installation, surface preparation, UV exposure, and maintenance. All Murtons Projects waterproofing comes with a comprehensive 10-year workmanship guarantee.
Can you waterproof during Cape Town's winter?
Waterproofing requires dry conditions for proper adhesion and curing. We can waterproof during winter on dry days between rain periods. For urgent leaks, we provide temporary emergency repairs to prevent further damage, then complete permanent waterproofing when weather permits. We monitor weather forecasts carefully and communicate timing clearly. Call for emergency leak repairs.
