- Rising damp treatment. Tide marks and salts low on walls of older houses.
- Damp assessments. Working out whether damp is rising, penetrating or condensation.
- Flat roof waterproofing. Flat roofs on flats and older homes with cracked membranes.
- Wall waterproofing. Walls facing the sea taking wind-driven rain.
- Balcony waterproofing. Balconies on blocks of flats leaking into units below.
Salt and Damp Near the Beach
- Salt in plaster. Salts draw moisture from the air and keep walls damp after the source is fixed.
- Blown plaster. Salt crystals push paint and plaster off the wall.
- Corroded fixings. Steel in balconies and parapets rusts and cracks the concrete around it.
Painting over salt-damaged plaster rarely lasts. Damaged plaster is usually hacked off and replaced with a salt-resistant render.

Questions to Ask a Muizenberg Contractor

Waterproofing Muizenberg FAQs
Why does my wall stay damp after it was painted?
Salts in the plaster draw moisture from the air. The salty plaster usually has to be replaced.
Is it rising damp or rain coming through the wall?
Rising damp shows low on walls; penetrating damp shows after rain, often higher up. A damp assessment confirms it.
Can rusted balcony steel be repaired?
Yes. The concrete is broken out, the steel treated or replaced, and the area rebuilt before waterproofing.
How long does rising damp treatment take?
Injection takes a day or two per house; drying out and replastering take longer.
