What the service covers - Over-tile waterproofing

What the service covers

Cleaning, crack repair and a waterproof coating applied directly over the existing tiled surface

  • Surface cleaning

    Removing dirt, algae and loose material before any coating is applied

  • Crack and joint sealing

    Filling tile cracks and grout lines with a flexible waterproof filler

  • Flexible waterproof coat

    Applying a flexible coating that moves with tiles under Kuwait's thermal cycling

  • Parapet edge treatment

    Reinforcing the junction between tiles and parapet walls against water entry

  • Drain collar bonding

    Bonding the coating tightly around each drain collar, the most common leak point

  • Post-application check

    Reviewing full coverage and marking any spots needing an extra pass

Signs this treatment is what you need

  1. Damp patches on the ceiling below

    Yellow or grey patches appear on the top-floor ceiling after rain or roof washing

  2. Crumbling grout lines on the roof

    Grout between roof tiles has hollowed out or crumbled, letting water slip underneath

  3. Paint blistering under the slab edge

    Paint swelling or flaking at the soffit edge signals moisture absorbed through the deck

  4. Pooling water that drains slowly

    Water sits on roof tiles for hours after hosing or rain instead of running off quickly

Things to check before you call

  1. Locate where the leak enters

    Find the wet spot on the ceiling and try to link it to a position on the roof above

  2. Check the tile condition

    Cracked or hollow tiles must be re-bonded before the waterproof coat is applied over them

  3. When the roof was last washed

    A surface thick with algae or grime adds preparation time and affects the coating bond

  4. Planned use of the roof surface

    Whether the roof is foot-traffic only or will carry equipment affects which coating grade is used

What goes wrong with most finishing.

The finish is what you see every day, and its mistakes do not hide. These three are the most common.

  1. 01

    A rushed finish

    The finish is what you live with every day. Rushing it shows in every corner.

  2. 02

    Four contractors for one finish

    Tiling, gypsum, paint and aluminium crews who never talk to each other.

  3. 03

    After-care that never comes

    Once you have the keys, it is hard to find anyone to come back and fix what shows up.

The solution?

Full finishing, and maintenance after it, from one licensed company.

  1. A bathroom finished in modern marble
    A rushed finish

    Turnkey finishing

    Marble, tiling, gypsum and paint from one company.

  2. A gypsum ceiling with hidden lighting in a modern living room
    Four contractors for one finish

    One company for every trade

    No gaps between the tiler, the gypsum crew and the painter.

  3. A finished modern living room with a marble floor
    After-care that never comes

    Regular maintenance after handover

    And finishing on instalments if you need it.

How it works.

  1. Call or whatsApp

    Describe the leak or problem and give your property location in Kuwait

  2. Roof inspection

    We inspect tiles, grout lines and drain positions to define the scope

  3. Preparation and cleaning

    Surface is cleaned, cracked tiles repaired and open joints filled

  4. Coating application

    Flexible waterproof coats applied across the field, edges and drain collars

  5. Check and handover

    Full coverage reviewed and handover completed once all points are confirmed sealed

What sets the price.

No fixed rate applies; the quote depends on the specific roof conditions and treatment required

Get a quote
  1. Total roof area

    Larger area means more coating material and labour time

  2. Existing tile condition

    Cracked or debonded tiles require repair work before the coating can be applied

  3. Number of coating passes

    High-traffic or heavily exposed roofs need two or three coats rather than one

  4. Edge and penetration detail

    Multiple pipe penetrations and outlets add time for careful sealing around each one

  5. Roof access difficulty

    High or awkwardly accessed roofs require extra equipment and longer setup time

Why one contractor beats four.

Every extra contractor means another schedule and another excuse. With us, one company answers for all of it.

  1. Turnkey

    Shell and finishing with one company, from footings to keys.

  2. Pay in instalments

    Construction and finishing on instalments. Ask us for the details.

  3. Engineering supervision

    Architectural drawings and engineering supervision on site.

  4. After handover

    Maintenance contracts and a 24-hour emergency plumber.

Is over-tile waterproofing a permanent alternative to stripping the roof and starting fresh?

It is a long-lasting solution when the underlying concrete deck is sound and tiles are firmly bonded. If the deck has deep structural cracking or tiles are hollow over large areas, full removal may be the more practical route.

Why do tiled roofs in Kuwait fail more quickly than in milder climates?

Large daily temperature swings expand and contract the tile bed repeatedly, which breaks down grout and sealant. Fine dust also collects in micro-gaps and widens them over time, giving water a direct path to the concrete deck.

Can the coating be applied during Kuwait's summer heat?

Yes, but application is scheduled for early morning before tile surfaces overheat. Tiles that are extremely hot alter curing speed and can affect coating spread, so timing the application is part of proper planning.

Does over-tile waterproofing help reduce heat in the top floor?

Some reflective coating types reduce surface heat absorption slightly, but the primary purpose of this service is waterproofing rather than thermal insulation. For meaningful heat reduction, a separate thermal insulation layer should be added.

How many coats are enough for a tiled roof in Kuwait?

The number depends on the coating type, exposure level and whether the roof sees foot traffic. Typically two coats cover the general field while three are applied at joints, penetrations and edges where stress concentrates.
