Authorised reseller, Durbanville, Durbanville, the Northern Suburbs and greater Cape Town
The trade does not buy its waterproofing at a hardware chain.
It buys the drum, the right primer and the honest coverage figure, then puts three coats on. We are an authorised Rubber Sealant® reseller in Durbanville, so you can do exactly the same thing at exactly the same prices.

Problem & approach
Where these projects go wrong, and how we handle them.
The usual problem
Buying waterproofing yourself is easy. Buying the right waterproofing yourself is where it goes wrong, and it usually goes wrong in the same order. You buy the sealant but not the primer, because nobody mentioned the primer. You buy the metal primer for a concrete roof, or the masonry primer for a rusted metal one, because the difference was never explained. You work off the coverage figure on the front of the tin, which is a one-coat number, so you buy a third of the product the job actually needs and then thin what you have to make it stretch. And you do all of that at a retail counter staffed by somebody who has never been on a roof, so there is no one to say hang on, what surface is this going on.
Our approach
We sell the same product we apply, and we tell you what the job needs before you pay for it. Tell us the surface and the rough area and you get back the correct primer, the coverage at the manufacturer's three coats, the number of drums, and the total including VAT. Stock lives in Durbanville and collection is by arrangement, so your order is picked and priced before you arrive and somebody is there to meet you. If it turns out that what you have is not a coating problem at all, we will say so. There is no version of this where selling you drums for a job that will fail is good for us.
