Get Waterproofing QuotesWhat Affects the Quote
- Roof area. Large roofs cost more in total but often less per m².
- Finishes. Terrace tiles, decking or stone cladding may need lifting and reinstating.
- Detailing. Parapets, outlets, skylights and thresholds add labour.
- Access. Double-storey walls and steep roofs need scaffolding.
- System. Polyurethane and premium membranes cost more than acrylic.
When to Book
Summer storms and hail are hard on large flat roofs and terraces. Book inspections in the dry season, clear outlets before the rains and leave full re-waterproofing for a dry spell.
Preparation and Disruption
- Furniture and plants. Clear terraces and protect landscaping below work areas.
- Noise. Lifting tiles and stripping membranes is noisy for a few days.
- Curing. Liquid systems need dry weather and time to cure before foot traffic.
Questions to Ask
- Where exactly is the water getting in?
- Will parapets, outlets and thresholds be detailed, not just the open roof?
- Which system suits a terrace with foot traffic?
- Who reinstates tiles or decking?
- What guarantee is given in writing?
Waterproofing Hyde Park FAQs
Why does my roof terrace leak only in heavy storms?
Often the outlet cannot cope or the threshold detail is too low, so water backs up above the membrane edge.
Is a coating over terrace tiles enough?
Only if the membrane below is sound and the problem is porous grout. A failed membrane needs the tiles lifted.
Can a cellar be waterproofed from inside?
Yes, with cementitious or crystalline tanking or a cavity drain membrane, when digging outside is not practical.
How often should a large roof be inspected?
At least once a year before the rains, and after any severe hailstorm.
