I highly recommend Drytek for roof repairs. From start to finish, their service was professional, efficient, and reliable.
Drytek is based in Bedfordview. Roof leak repairs, ageing torch-on flat roofs, leaking balconies and parapets for homes, complexes and businesses across the suburb.
When it matters, Drytek it.
Local coverage
Bedfordview is home base for Drytek Waterproofing. Many of the larger freestanding homes, double-storey townhouses and sectional title complexes here were built between the 1980s and early 2000s, which means their original waterproofing systems are often well past the end of their working life. We work on roofs, balconies and parapets across the suburb almost every week.
Properties in Bedfordview often combine flat concrete sections, IBR or Chromadek lean-tos, tiled pitched roofs and paved balconies on a single building. That mix of systems on one property is exactly the kind of work we specialise in. Because our vehicles and materials are staged locally, response times inside Bedfordview are typically very fast.

I highly recommend Drytek for roof repairs. From start to finish, their service was professional, efficient, and reliable.

Professional, neat and quick. Awesome experience working with the team. Evance is very knowledgeable and trustworthy.

Thorough site evaluation, clear explanation of the work required, and excellent workmanship.

The team arrived on schedule, communicated clearly, and delivered excellent results.
Common problems
Many Bedfordview homes still carry the original SBS torch-on installed at construction. UV exposure has shrunk the sheets, laps have opened at the edges and the protective granules have washed off into the gutters, leaving the membrane bare and brittle.
Tiled balconies sitting above living rooms are one of the most common leak sources in the suburb. Failed grout, missing screed falls and unsealed parapet junctions let water track sideways into the slab and appear as ceiling stains well inside the house.
Bedfordview sits in the Highveld hail belt. Older waterproofing membranes go brittle over the years and crack after heavy storms, particularly around skylights, ridge details and upstands where the material is already stressed.
Body corporates around Bedfordview often deal with several intermittent leaks across one shared roof. We document the findings unit by unit so trustees and managing agents can plan and budget repairs in phases.
Property types
Larger freestanding houses across Oriel, Morninghill and St Andrews — flat roof re-waterproofing, tile roof repairs, balcony resealing and leak tracing.

Offices, shops and mixed-use buildings around Bedfordview, Bruma and the Eastgate node, scheduled around trading and office hours.
Light industrial and warehouse premises along the Germiston and Kensington edges with IBR and corrugated roofs, including rust treatment and sheet sealing.

SBS torch-on applied to clean, primed substrates with correctly lapped sheets — the system most Bedfordview flat concrete roofs need once the original construction membrane has perished.

Common questions
Yes. Drytek Waterproofing's base of operations is in Bedfordview, which is why response times here are typically very fast. We operate as a service area business, so we do not publish a public street address.
Because our vehicles and materials are staged locally, Bedfordview inspections are usually scheduled within a few working days, and emergency leaks during the rainy season are prioritised wherever possible.
Regularly. We quote and work on sectional title schemes around Bedfordview, including phased roof projects, balcony resealing and intermittent leak investigations across multiple units, with a written scope suitable for trustee or agent approval.
Yes. A lot of Bedfordview homes combine flat concrete sections, IBR or Chromadek lean-tos, tiled pitched roofs and paved balconies on one building. We inspect everything in one visit and quote each system separately so you can see exactly what is being done where.
Inspections and quotes are free. You can WhatsApp photos and rough measurements for a preliminary estimate, but the final quote is confirmed after an on-site inspection so we can verify substrate condition, falls, drainage and the correct system to specify.
Free on-site inspection. WhatsApp photos for a preliminary estimate, subject to final site measurement.
