Waterproofing

What we waterproof

Alpha Waterproofing lays membranes on almost any surface that has to keep water out, on homes and on commercial buildings across Tauranga and the Bay of Plenty.

Roofs

Flat, low-pitch and curved roofs in Butynol, TPO, two layer torch-on and liquid membranes. See membrane roofing in Tauranga.

Decks, balconies and ramps

Sheet and liquid membranes for decks and balconies over living areas, walkways and access ramps. See deck and balcony membranes.

Basements

Tanking on basement walls to keep ground moisture out. See basement tanking.

Box gutters

Internal box gutters on commercial and residential buildings, lined new or recoated with a liquid membrane over the existing one.

Water features

Liquid membranes for water features and fountains, which have to hold water rather than shed it.

Leaks and joints

Finding and fixing leaks, and sealing new construction joints. See leak inspection and sealing.

Membrane Specialists

From new constructions to commercial and domestic projects, our waterproofing services can cover all the surfaces you need. By using high-quality membranes specially designed to be durable and long-lasting, we can help protect your investments from the harsh weather and potential water damage.

Membranes systems can vary in type and have different benefits for each. The most common types you will see are sheets and liquid made from different materials. Ask us about all the different types we carry and which one may be the best fit for you.

Our specially trained team can measure, apply and seal your projects quickly, on-time and within budget. Let us know what you need to be waterproofed and we'll be happy to do it for you. If you have any questions about other waterproofing methods or our additional services we provide, do not hesitate to call and ask. We'd love to talk with you and help you find the best service for your needs.

Approved applicators

We are approved applicators for Viking, Nuralite, Ardex, Sealco, Cohe and Special Finishes membrane systems.

Sheet and liquid membranes, and the brands we use

Most waterproofing membranes are either sheets or liquids. Sheets such as Butynol (a synthetic rubber made in New Zealand by ARDEX), TPO and vinyl come in rolls and are laid and joined on site. Liquid membranes are applied on site and cure into a seamless, fully adhered layer that follows curves, plant stands and penetrations. Which suits depends on the surface, how it is used and your budget, and we will explain the choice.

On recent jobs we have used WPS Durotuff TPO from Waterproofing Systems, Ardex 615 TPO and Butynol from Ardex, Sealco's Dekmaster vinyl and TPO, and liquid membrane systems, as well as products from Allco and Nuralite. Whatever the membrane, the goal is the one set by clause E2 of the Building Code: buildings must provide adequate resistance to penetration by, and the accumulation of, moisture from the outside.

The work is done by a qualified team. Les Hepworth, who owns Alpha, is a Licensed Building Practitioner (BP104443) with a Roofing licence covering membrane, torch-on and liquid membrane roofs, the team holds national certificates in membrane roofing and waterproofing, and Alpha is Totika accredited.

Frequently asked questions

What can you waterproof?

Roofs, decks, balconies and ramps, basements, internal box gutters and water features, plus leak repairs and joint sealing. Each has its own page: membrane roofs, decks and balconies and basement tanking.

Should I use a sheet or a liquid membrane?

Sheets suit large, simple areas and long service lives; liquids suit awkward shapes, lots of penetrations and recoating a sound existing membrane. We recommend one after looking at the job.

Both. We waterproof new construction for builders and owners, and repair or recoat existing roofs, decks and gutters.

Are you licensed and qualified?
