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 Khalifa City: what we plan for
Khalifa City is mostly large private villas built plot by plot, many of them extended over the years with a majlis, staff quarters or a second house on the same land. Khalifa City A is the established part, with apartment developments such as Al Rayyana and Etihad Plaza. Khalifa City B, now also called Shakhbout City, is newer and lower density, and Al Merief is a district of private villa plots.
Open plots and building sites between the homes keep sand and cement dust in the air, and it settles in courtyards, on roof terraces and inside AC return grilles. Roof water tanks are exposed to full sun, and the hard desalinated supply scales up heaters and mixer taps quickly. Villas here often run split, ducted and package units side by side. Every unit, pump and water tank is logged on the first visit and maintained to one plan.
Most villas are on open streets, so the crew parks at the gate and works with the owner or the house staff. Apartment buildings ask for a permit and a lift booking. Any outside work that may need the community or municipality to agree is identified at the site visit.

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.

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.
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 Khalifa City?
Yes. We waterproof roofs, wet rooms, balconies, tanks and pools across Abu Dhabi. The first step is always a site visit to trace where the water is getting in.
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 Khalifa City?
Most villas are on open streets, so the crew parks at the gate and works with the owner or the house staff. Apartment buildings ask for a permit and a lift booking. Any outside work that may need the community or municipality to agree is identified at the site visit.

Yes. Roof and ground tanks are drained, scrubbed, disinfected and refilled, with the inlet and overflow screens checked. The scope is confirmed in writing after the site visit.
How do I choose a company for waterproofing in Khalifa City?
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.
