Roof & Waterproofing in Islamabad

Roofs, bathrooms, tanks and seepage. The cause found first, then the right system for that surface - because a coating over a live leak buys you one season.

How it works

Four steps, no surprises

Customer photographing a wet roof after rain to send on WhatsApp1

Send us a photo

WhatsApp us a picture of the problem and your area. Most jobs can be priced from a photo and a sentence.

Apni Chhat writing out the estimate before any work starts2

We send you an estimate

A price range in writing, before anyone travels. Asking costs nothing.

You agree, then our man comes and checks

He reviews the job on site, confirms the final price with you, and only starts once you say yes.

Waterproofing applied in coats and then flood tested on an Islamabad roof4

Job finished, then you pay

We walk it with you when it is done. No advance on standard repairs.

Water coming through the ceiling now?

Put a bucket under it and move anything electrical. We cannot coat a roof in the rain, but we can tarp it and stop the damage spreading until it dries.

  • Move anything electrical out from under it
  • Photograph it while it is actively leaking
  • Ask about a temporary cover
Why us

Four things we do differently

We find the cause before we quote a coat

A coating over a live leak fails in one season, and you pay twice.

Flood tested before it is covered

A bathroom that is not water tested is a guess.

Systems explained by lifespan, not brand names

You choose what to spend once you know how long each lasts.

Written guarantee on the system applied

Length depends on the system; we state it before starting.

FAQs

Roof & Waterproofing questions, answered

When is the right time to waterproof a roof?

Before the monsoon, not during it. Coatings need a dry substrate to bond, so February to May is the ideal window in Islamabad. Emergency leak repairs can be done in the rain but they are a patch, not a system.

Which coating should I choose?

It depends on exposure and budget. Cementitious is the economical option for a sheltered roof. Elastomeric handles Islamabad's summer thermal movement much better and is the sensible middle choice. Polyurethane and torch-applied membrane last longest and cost the most. The surveyor will give you a straight recommendation.

Do you guarantee the work?

Yes. The guarantee period depends on the system chosen and is written on the quote before you agree to anything — we do not give a verbal number and change it later.

The damp is on an internal wall, not the ceiling. Is that still waterproofing?

Possibly not. Internal wall damp is often a leaking concealed pipe rather than external water ingress. Our inspection visit distinguishes between the two before you spend money on the wrong fix.

Can you waterproof a roof we still use as a terrace?

Yes, but it needs a system that takes foot traffic and then a screed or tile over it. A bare coating rated for an unused roof will wear through where people walk, so tell us at survey if you use it.

How long does the work take, and can we use the water tank?

A typical roof is two to four days including cure time between coats. Tank lining means the tank is out of use for two to three days, so we will help you plan storage before we drain it.

Do I have to remove the old coating first?

If it is blistered, loose or chalking, yes - a new coat over a failing one peels with it. If it is sound and well bonded, it can often stay as a base. We test-scrape it at survey rather than guessing.
