What is included
A waterproofing company for villas, apartments and buildings, treating roofs, bathrooms, balconies, water tanks and pools once the leak is traced. Dubai 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.
- Tiles and screed removed in the wet zone
- Membrane taken up the walls and into the drain
- Flood tested for at least 24 hours before tiling
- Retiled and grouted to match
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.
What your quotation depends on

Questions about bathroom waterproofing
What does bathroom waterproofing include?
Tanking of shower areas and bathroom floors beneath the tiles, the fix when water marks appear on the ceiling or wall of the room next door or below. The work includes tiles and screed removed in the wet zone; membrane taken up the walls and into the drain; flood tested for at least 24 hours before tiling.
How much does bathroom waterproofing cost in Dubai?
We do not publish prices, because no two jobs are the same.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 bathroom waterproofing in Dubai?
The MELLS provides bathroom waterproofing in Dubai. 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 bathroom 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.
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.
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.
Do you provide waterproofing in Dubai?
Yes. We waterproof roofs, wet rooms, balconies, tanks and pools across Dubai. The first step is always a site visit to trace where the water is getting in.
How do I choose a company for bathroom waterproofing in Dubai?
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.
