Terrace & Balcony Waterproofing

Survey first · fixed quote in 24h

  • Leak survey of thresholds, drains, tiles and fixings
  • Option A: clear tile-overlay sealer — no tile removal
  • Option B: strip tiles, repair falls, PU membrane and retile

Sound familiar?

  • The ceiling under our terrace leaks after rain or when we wash it.
  • Water gets in under the balcony sliding door.
  • Tiles are loose, cracked or the grout has gone dark and damp.
  • There's white powder (efflorescence) on the tiles and the soffit below.
  • Our planters and roof garden are leaking into the villa.

Every one of these has a lasting fix — once the source is found.

The Survey

What we check before quoting terrace & balcony waterproofing

Most failed waterproofing jobs treated the stain, not the source. These are the points we check on every survey before we recommend a system or a price.

Door thresholds

The membrane must turn up under the sliding-door frame. A flat threshold with no upstand is the most common terrace leak we find.

Falls & drains

Tiles checked for fall towards the drain; water that ponds against the façade or door eventually finds its way inside.

Tiles & grout condition

Hollow, cracked or loose tiles show where the bed below is wet — deciding whether a clear sealer will do or the tiles must come up.

Planters & balustrade fixings

Planter boxes and post fixings drilled through the slab are sealed and tanked, because each one is a hole in the membrane.

How It Works

From first photo to flood-tested

Start with photos on WhatsApp. We confirm the source, quote one fixed price and prove the finished work before handing it back.

  1. Photos on WhatsApp

    Send the terrace and the leak below. We tell you if a clear sealer could work or tiles must come up.

  2. Survey & fixed quote

    We check the thresholds, tiles and drains, then send one fixed quote within 24 hours.

  3. Seal or rebuild

    Either a clear overlay system, or a new PU membrane with corrected falls and new tiles.

  4. Flood test & handover

    Flood-tested to prove it, then handed back with photos — and we come back if it leaks again.

Questions

Terrace & Balcony Waterproofing FAQs

The questions Dubai and Sharjah owners ask us most about this service.

Typical 2026 rates are AED 50–95 per m² for pU membrane under new tiles or screed; AED 35–65 per m² for clear tile-overlay sealer — no tile removal. The price depends on the area, whether the tiles can stay and the condition of the screed, and is fixed after a survey.

Often, yes. If the tiles are well bonded and the leak is through the grout and tile joints, a clear tile-overlay sealer can make the surface watertight without demolition. If the tiles are hollow or the screed is saturated, the tiles must come up so the membrane underneath can be renewed.

Usually because the waterproofing stops flat at the threshold instead of turning up under the door frame, or the balcony falls towards the door. We detail an upstand at the threshold and correct the fall so water runs to the drain.

Yes. Planter boxes and roof gardens need a root-resistant membrane, a drainage layer and sealed outlets. We tank them so irrigation water stays in the planter, not in the room below.

Every rain makes a leak worse. Fix it properly, once.
