What is included
Abu Dhabi roofs bake for most of the year and then take a sudden downpour, which is when cracked membranes and blocked outlets show themselves. We trace the leak before recommending anything, prepare the surface, apply the membrane system named in your quotation and flood test it before any tile or screed goes back.
- Leak tracing with moisture readings and flood or dye tests
- Removal of failed membrane, loose screed and blown tiles
- Crack, joint and drain outlet repairs
- Liquid applied and sheet membranes matched to the surface
- Upstands, corners and pipe penetrations detailed
- Flood test before finishes are reinstated
- Screed, tiling and regrouting over the new membrane
- Building or community paperwork prepared where approval is needed
- Photographs of every layer in the handover report
How it works
The same method on every job, so the result does not depend on who is on shift.
- Survey and diagnosis. A technician inspects the system or surface, takes readings and photographs, and explains what was found in plain language.
- Written quotation. You receive a written quotation against a defined scope before any work starts. Anything outside that scope is quoted separately.
- Protected, supervised work. The work area is protected and isolated, and the job is carried out by our own technicians under a named supervisor.
- Testing. Every job ends with a measured test suited to the discipline, so the result is a reading and a photograph and not an opinion.
- Report and warranty. The completed report reaches you within the hour. Any failed point is put right free of charge within 48 hours.
Waterproofing in Al Karamah: what we plan for
Al Karamah is an established district in the middle of Abu Dhabi island, between Al Karamah Street and Sheikh Rashid Bin Saeed Street. Villas and villa compounds such as Al Dhafra Compound make up much of the housing, with older standalone homes in pockets such as the Al Musalla Area. Mid rise apartment buildings including Al Maharba and Al Karama Complex line the main roads, and Delma Street runs through the middle.
Traffic on the main roads lifts fine dust that settles on window ledges, car ports and outdoor AC units. Older window seals let that dust indoors, and hard desalinated water leaves scale on taps, shower screens and kettles. Older villas often have AC drain lines running inside walls that block with sludge. Lines are cleared and flushed, units cleaned, and leaks found behind ceilings are opened up and repaired.
Gated villa compounds register contractors with security in advance through the resident. Apartment buildings need a work permit from building management and a booked service lift. Where exterior work may need an approval, this is identified at the site visit and we prepare the paperwork asked for.

The leak is coming from the apartment above. What can you do?

Do you provide waterproofing in Al Karamah?

How do you find where a leak is coming from?
We take moisture readings, inspect the area above and around the damp, and where needed run a flood or dye test on the suspect surface. The plumbing is pressure tested if a pipe is the likelier cause.
How do your crews get access to Al Karamah?
Gated villa compounds register contractors with security in advance through the resident. Apartment buildings need a work permit from building management and a booked service lift. Where exterior work may need an approval, this is identified at the site visit and we prepare the paperwork asked for.

Ask four things: who employs the people who will come, whether the scope is written down before work starts, how the result is checked, and what happens if something is missed. The MELLS uses its own staff, quotes in writing after a site visit, checks every job (a measured test for every job, with photographs before and after) and puts right any failed check free of charge within 48 hours.
