Terrace & Roof Waterproofing

The largest part of the Dr. Fixit range, and the part most people arrive looking for. These are liquid-applied coatings for flat RCC terraces and roofs — the failure point in almost every Indian building, because a roof takes the full rainfall, the full sun and the full thermal movement all at once.

Leakproofs by Betterwork specifies and applies materials from this range across residential, commercial and industrial projects. Which one is right for your building depends on what the deep-scan inspection finds — the defect, the substrate and how much the structure moves — not on which product is best known.

What this range covers

Product types and systems within Dr. Fixit terrace & roof waterproofing:

• Acrylic roof coatings
• Flexible elastomeric roof coatings
• Ready-to-use terrace waterproofing
• RCC roof waterproofing systems
• Crack-bridging roof membranes
• Reflective and heat-resistant top coats

Where it is used

Flat and low-slope RCC terraces, roof slabs, mumty roofs, chajjas and any horizontal surface exposed to rain and sun. Also used over old brick-bat coba once the failed layer has been removed.

How we choose between them

The question is how much the slab moves. On a stable slab with hairline shrinkage cracks, an acrylic coating is adequate and economical. On a slab that opens cracks every summer — which describes most of Delhi, Jaipur, Ahmedabad and Indore — only a high-elongation flexible system will still be watertight in year five.

Every recommendation we make is written down before work is agreed, alongside the reason for it, so you can compare quotations on the same technical basis rather than on price alone.
