Waterproofing Paarl

Waterproofing in Paarl has to survive a temperature range the coast never sees. Summer roof surfaces here get punishingly hot and winter nights drop far lower than they do in the metro, and it is that annual swing, not the rain, that fatigues most systems.

Our Process

We work throughout Paarl and the surrounding valley, on houses in town, on the newer developments, and on farm and commercial buildings.

  1. 1
    Free site inspection.

    Including how much movement the structure is actually doing, which matters more here than on the coast.

  2. 2
    Written quote before work starts.

    Preparation, crack detailing and the waterproofing itself as separate lines.

  3. 3
    The work, specified for movement.

    Flexible systems where the structure moves, rigid ones only where it does not.

  4. 4
    Guarantee and follow-up.

    Written, minimum 2-year guarantee, and Fred phones after the first proper front.

Why Choose TurboMax

We specify for movement rather than applying the same system everywhere, and in a valley with this temperature range that is the difference between a roof that lasts and one that crazes in three summers.

Fred owns the business, quotes every job himself and is on site, with his son Thomas running the second team. He phones after the first proper front to confirm it held, and if it has not, we come back at our cost.

4.6 on Google, written, minimum 2-year guarantee, extended guarantees on request and a 10-year service guarantee where we maintain the work on an agreed cycle, public liability insurance, free inspections, and we work Sundays.

Frequently Asked Questions

Straight answers, including the ones that talk us out of a bigger job.

What does waterproofing cost in Paarl?

Roof type, condition and preparation drive it as everywhere, with one addition specific to here: crack detailing on concrete. Live cracks need flexible treatment before anything goes over them, and that is quoted as its own line. It costs a little more up front and it is the reason the same crack does not leak again next winter.

My roof coating has crazed and cracked across the whole surface, not just at the edges. Why?

That is the classic inland failure and it is fatigue rather than damage. The wide annual temperature swing here expands and contracts the roof thousands of times, and a coating that has lost its flexibility eventually crazes across the open field. A more flexible system is usually the answer rather than a thicker version of the same thing.

There is a crack in my roof slab that keeps coming back after being filled. What now?

It is almost certainly a live crack, meaning it is still opening and closing seasonally. Filling a live crack with anything rigid guarantees it will reopen, because the movement has not stopped. It needs a flexible detail that lets it keep moving underneath the waterproofing, which is a different treatment entirely.

Do you work on farm and cellar buildings?

Yes. Large sheeted roofs on cellars, sheds and workshops, and concrete structures with long spans. Late summer inspection on these is worth far more than it costs, because the alternative is discovering the problem in July when nothing can be properly repaired.

Is Paarl too far for you to come out?

No, it is comfortably within our normal working area and inspections here are free like everywhere else. For genuine storm emergencies, be realistic that a same-hour response is easier closer to Kuils River, which is a good argument for having things looked at before the season rather than during it.
