Waterproofing
We specialize in comprehensive waterproofing solutions for residential, commercial, and industrial properties, delivering a professional service from initial assessment through to final completion.
Our experienced teams operate within secure and sensitive environments and take all necessary measures to ensure that work areas remain neat, orderly, and safe throughout the project. We prioritize efficiency and precision, providing timely execution with minimal downtime and disruption to our clients’ operations or daily activities.
We partner with reputable waterproofing product manufacturers, and all waterproofing products and materials utilized are tested, approved, and certified to ensure optimal performance, long-term durability, and valid warranty and guarantee offerings. As an independent waterproofing contractor, we work with a wide range of waterproofing systems and have access to multiple product solutions, enabling us to specify and apply the most suitable system to meet each client’s requirements and technical specifications.
TFSSA provides waterproofing, damp-proofing, and waterproofing repair assessment and estimate quotations, allowing clients to plan, budget, and evaluate their waterproofing project options with confidence.
Prior to the commencement of any project, a final on-site consultation is conducted to ensure accurate planning. This includes detailed measurements, area assessment and evaluation, sample and substrate analysis where required, and the provision of professional recommendations and technical advice on the most appropriate waterproofing solution.
We approach each project individually, carefully considering the specific requirements of the client and the site, with the objective of not only meeting but surpassing expectations.
Waterproofing systems and products continue to evolve as new technologies are introduced to the market. As a contractor that builds its reputation on technical expertise and innovation, we ensure that all new products are thoroughly tested and that our teams receive expert training in the correct application of every waterproofing system we offer.
The quality of application and workmanship is critical to the effectiveness of any waterproofing system and directly impacts product performance, warranties, and guarantees. For this reason, a significant portion of time on every project is dedicated to meticulous surface preparation, followed by the professional application of waterproofing coatings in strict accordance with manufacturer specifications and industry best practices.
TYPES OF WATERPROOFING SYSTEMS OFFERED:
Bituminous membrane Waterproofing / Torch-on waterproofing
Bituminous waterproofing membranes, modified bitumen waterproofing membranes or commonly known as torch-on waterproofing membranes: Bituminous waterproofing membranes are manufactured with rubberized asphalt, modified plastomer / elastomer bitumen, the product is reinforced with a dual carrier spun bound non-woven polyester filament stabilized with fiberglass, with, some systems with special additives, the upper surface is finished with a special release material which is uniformly spread and calibrated in order to prevent the roll from sticking to itself and available in various types of finishes and in some products provide an anti-slip feature. The lower surface can be laminated with a thermo fusible film.
It can be applied in a wide variety of areas that requires waterproofing including flat, sloped and pitched roofs, reinforced concrete and prefabricated concrete, masonry cement, metal, decks, parking, insulated concrete, under flooring, garden roof, terraces and air/vapour barrier, foundations, tunnels and tanks.
Bituminous membrane is usually applied by heating the bituminous blend using a gas burner or hot air guns and can be modified / manipulated as per constructive size and shape.
This system is coated by using a suitable aluminium or acrylic coating. The coating will serve as a decorative and protective coating that will protect the torch on waterproofing against ultraviolet degradation. The coating will need to be serviced as stipulated after application.
Bituminous / torch-on waterproofing have outstanding waterproofing capability and performance perfectly meets all architectural forms.
Liquid Waterproofing
Liquid waterproofing methods, also referred to as membrane waterproofing systems, modified liquid waterproofing coatings, or seamless liquid waterproofing systems, consist of cold- or spray-applied coatings that cure to form a continuous, joint-free waterproofing membrane. These systems are highly adaptable and are particularly effective in areas with complex detailing, penetrations, joints, and irregular substrates.
There is a wide range of liquid waterproofing products available in the market, generally categorised as follows:
Bitumen Emulsions
Bitumen emulsion waterproofing systems typically comprise modified anionic bitumen emulsions combined with rubber and/or latex additives. These systems provide effective waterproofing and flexibility and may be applied with reinforcing membranes in high-stress or movement-prone areas to improve performance and durability.
Polyurethane Emulsions
Polyurethane liquid waterproofing systems are water-based, seamless membranes manufactured from modified monomers and polymers, incorporating polyester components fused by carbamate bonds (urethane). These systems offer excellent flexibility, strong adhesion, and outstanding resistance to chemicals and ultraviolet (UV) exposure, making them suitable for both exposed and concealed applications.
Polyester Systems and Acrylic Emulsions
Polyester and acrylic liquid waterproofing systems are water-based coatings commonly reinforced with fibre membranes such as fibreglass or geo-fabric reinforcement. These systems provide enhanced tensile strength and crack-bridging capability and are widely used for roof waterproofing, detailing, and refurbishment projects.
Polyurea Waterproofing Systems
Polyurea is a high-performance modified polymer liquid system formulated with specialised resins and additives. Once applied, it forms a seamless membrane with exceptionally high tensile strength, rapid curing times, superior elongation properties, and excellent UV resistance. Polyurea systems are suitable for demanding environments and applications requiring long-term durability.
Silane / Siloxane Liquids
Silane and siloxane-based liquid waterproofing products offer deep-penetrating, hydrophobic impregnation of substrates. These systems provide effective water repellence while maintaining vapour permeability and deliver excellent resistance to water ingress, chemical exposure, and environmental deterioration.
Cementitious Liquid Waterproofing
Cementitious liquid waterproofing systems, including polymer-modified cement-based coatings, are used where strong adhesion to mineral substrates is required. These systems are suitable for both positive and negative water pressure applications and can be reinforced where necessary.
Areas of Application for Liquid Waterproofing Systems
Liquid waterproofing coatings are suitable for a wide range of residential, commercial, and industrial applications, including but not limited to:
- Flat, pitched, and complex roof structures
- Sealing of roof joints, laps, fixings, roof screws, and bolts
- Flashings, penetrations, vents, parapet walls, valleys, and ridges
- Balconies, terraces, podium decks, and walkways
- Wet areas such as bathrooms, kitchens, showers, and ablution facilities
- Concrete, steel, and structural linings
- Reservoirs, tanks, and areas subject to full or partial water immersion (particularly polyurea systems)
Polyurethane and polyurea liquid waterproofing systems are especially suitable for wet-area applications due to their seamless nature, flexibility, and excellent adhesion. Polyurea coatings, in particular, are ideal for water-immersed environments and high-performance industrial applications.
