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 Mushrif: what we plan for
Al Mushrif is a long established villa district in the centre of Abu Dhabi island, between Airport Road and Al Khaleej Al Arabi Street. Most homes are standalone family villas on their own plots, in areas such as Al Qubaisat and along Al Saada Street, with compounds including Mushrif Gardens, Palm Oasis Villas and Al Yasat Compound. Umm Al Emarat Park and Mushrif Mall sit within the district.
Mature trees and large gardens give Mushrif more shade than most of the island, but they also bring leaf litter, pollen and birds. Irrigation keeps garden walls damp at the base, and dust from open plots and building work settles on terraces and in AC filters. A typical Mushrif villa has ducted and split AC units installed at different times, along with water tanks and pumps. We map the equipment first, clean ducts and coils, and check tanks for the sediment hard water leaves behind.
Standalone villas are reached directly, with the owner or house manager present for the first visit. Compounds such as Al Yasat and Palm Oasis have gate security, so the resident registers the crew in advance. Approvals for exterior work are identified at the site visit and we prepare the paperwork.

Questions about waterproofing in Al Mushrif
What does waterproofing include?
A waterproofing company for villas, apartments and buildings, treating roofs, bathrooms, balconies, water tanks and pools once the leak is traced. The work includes 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.
How much does waterproofing cost in Al Mushrif?
We do not publish prices, because no two jobs are the same. The main factors: size and type of the system or surface; present condition and ease of access. Book a site visit: a supervisor from The MELLS looks at the work and you receive a written quotation with a defined scope before anything begins.
Who provides waterproofing in Al Mushrif?
The MELLS provides waterproofing in Al Mushrif, Abu Dhabi. The work is carried out by people The MELLS employs directly, under a named supervisor, 08:00 to 19:00, Monday to Saturday. To arrange it, book a site visit on this page or call +971 55 444 0084.
How long does waterproofing take?
Typically quoted per project, typically 2 to 3 days for a bathroom and 3 to 7 days for a villa roof, including curing and a flood test. The time for your property is confirmed with the quotation.
Can a bathroom be waterproofed without removing the tiles?
A clear sealer over tiles and grout can slow minor seepage, but it is not a membrane. Where water is reaching the room below, the tiles in the wet zone have to come up so the floor can be tanked properly.
How long does waterproofing last?
That depends on the membrane system, the exposure and how the surface is used. Your quotation names the system, and an exposed roof is worth inspecting before each summer.
The leak is coming from the apartment above. What can you do?
We inspect your ceiling, take readings and report the likely source with photographs. The repair itself has to be made in the unit above, so access is arranged through that owner or building management.
How do your crews get access to Al Mushrif?
Standalone villas are reached directly, with the owner or house manager present for the first visit. Compounds such as Al Yasat and Palm Oasis have gate security, so the resident registers the crew in advance. Approvals for exterior work are identified at the site visit and we prepare the paperwork.
Do you work with house managers and household staff?
Yes. The supervisor agrees the plan with the house manager, works zone by zone and walks each area with them before the crew moves on.
How do I choose a company for waterproofing in Al Mushrif?
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.
How are visits to Al Mushrif arranged?
Visits in Abu Dhabi are booked by appointment between 08:00 and 19:00, Monday to Saturday. Call or send the form and we agree the earliest time a supervisor can come to you.
