SERVICES

Whether you are building a new home, have a commercial project or have an existing building in need of waterproofing, we work with you to explore the waterproofing solutions that will work the best for you.

TANKING

Tanking refers to the practice of completely waterproofing any area below ground.

A tanking membrane is capable of withstanding constant hydrostatic pressure without failure. In order for a building to be considered fully tanked all areas below ground would be fully encapsulated in a membrane.

For habitable spaces below ground, we strongly recommend using a true tanking membrane (Volclay) because almost every site will experience some form of hydrostatic pressure over the lifetime of the building.

ROOFING

At Sahara, we stay educated on the latest products, method and technology. We only use high-performance waterproofing membranes.

When waterproofing a roof, after evaluation, we may opt for multi-layer or single-layer applications, with or without insulation.

We know how important it is to get it right first time.

DECKS, RAMPS & PODIUMS

High traffic spaces that need waterproofing are increasing in popularity as the way that we live changes and evolves.

Sahara can help you to find a solution for your space and ensure a completely weathertight project to stand the test of time.

BASEMENTS

Moisture in basements can lead to mold and mildew growth, which can be harmful to health and cause structural decay. Waterproofing helps maintain a dry environment, reducing the risk of mold and mildew.

A dry, waterproofed basement can be utilized as additional living space. This can add value to your home by creating usable areas such as bedrooms, home offices, or recreational rooms.

Water infiltration can weaken the foundation of your home over time, leading to structural issues. Waterproofing helps preserve the integrity of the foundation by keeping it dry and free from water damage.

BATHROOMS & WET AREAS

Waterproofing your bathrooms and wet areas helps in preventing water from penetrating into building materials such as wood, concrete, or GIB. Water ingress can lead to structural damage, mold growth, and deterioration over time.

GARAGES

Many people use their garage to store valuable items such as tools, equipment, or even vehicles. Waterproofing helps keep these belongings safe from water damage, rust, and corrosion.

Waterproofing extends the life of the garage floor and walls by minimizing the effects of moisture, which can cause cracks, deterioration of concrete, and weakening of structural integrity.
