- Commercial waterproofing. Roofs, podiums and plant decks on offices and apartment blocks.
- Shower waterproofing. Unit showers leaking into the ceiling of the unit below.
- Balcony waterproofing. Apartment balconies with failed membranes or drains.
- Joint sealing. Facade, window and movement joints on taller buildings.
- Wall waterproofing. Rain driving through cracked or porous exterior walls.
- Roof leak repairs. Quick repairs on flat and pitched roofs of older homes.
Leaks Between Units
In apartment buildings, water often travels before it shows. A stain on your ceiling can come from the roof, a balcony or a shower above.
- Shower above. Failed grout, silicone or membrane in the unit above is a common cause.
- Balcony above. Water tracks along the slab from a balcony or planter.
- Roof or facade. Top-floor and corner units get leaks through roofs, parapets and window joints.

Get Waterproofing QuotesWhat Affects the Quote
- Finding the source. Leak tracing in multi-storey buildings can take time and testing.
- Height. Facade and window joint work on tall buildings needs rope access or scaffolding.
- Unit access. Work that needs entry to other units must be coordinated.
- Retiling. Shower and balcony fixes often include new tiles.
- Building rules. Working hours and noise limits can extend the job.
Storm Season
Wind-driven rain in summer storms tests facade joints and window seals as much as roofs. Get joints and outlets checked in the dry months.
Getting Work Approved
- Managing agent. Report leaks from common property to the agent or trustees.
- Unit owner. Work inside a unit, such as a shower, is usually the owner's cost.
- Building access. Book lifts, loading bays and parking for contractors in advance.
Questions to Ask
- How will you confirm which unit or area the water comes from?
- Is a reseal enough, or does the membrane need redoing?
- What access will you need to other units?
- Which sealant is used on facade joints?
- What guarantee comes with the work?
Waterproofing Rosebank FAQs
Water is coming through my ceiling. Is it the roof or the unit above?
It could be either. A leak test on the shower or balcony above, or a roof inspection for top-floor units, shows the source.
Can a leaking shower be fixed without retiling?
If grout or silicone has failed, a regrout and reseal may work. If the membrane has failed, tiles usually come off.
Who fixes leaking facade joints?
Usually the body corporate or building owner, through a contractor with rope access or scaffolding.
What does a shower leak repair cost?
Ballpark R1,500 to R4,000 for a regrout and reseal, or R3,500 to R9,000 to redo the membrane before tiling.
