Torch-On Waterproofing
Torch-on waterproofing uses heat-fused bitumen membranes to create a protective layer over prepared surfaces. SealX inspects the area, prepares the substrate and applies the specified membrane system to help address water ingress at vulnerable roof and building details.
- Torch-on waterproofing membranes
- Flat concrete roof slabs
- Sheet roofs
- Parapet walls and upstands
- Retaining walls and below-ground structures
- Leak detection and assessment
- Surface preparation and crack repairs
A Clear Process for
Lasting Slab Protection
Torch-on waterproofing depends on sound preparation and careful membrane application. We assess the affected area, prepare the surface and details, apply the specified membrane system, then review the completed work with you.
1. Inspection & Leak Assessment
We inspect the affected area to identify likely water entry points and review the surface and details that may need attention.
2. Surface Preparation
We clean and prepare the agreed surfaces, address included cracks or defects and apply primer where specified.
3. Torch-On Membrane Application
We heat-fuse the specified membrane across the prepared surface, paying attention to laps, outlets, parapets and upstands included in the scope.
4. Final Sealing & Review
We review the completed areas with you and confirm the work included in the agreed scope.
Protect the Details That Keep Water Out
Roof edges, parapets, outlets and membrane laps need careful attention as part of a waterproofing project. SealX assesses these details and includes the required preparation and sealing work in the recommended scope for your home.
