Roof Waterproofing in Frankel Estate, Singapore
Frankel Estate roofs are mostly older flat-slab construction whose original membranes have been patched repeatedly over the decades. Owners tend to arrive at the conclusion the rest of the East Coast reaches: another patch buys months, and a full strip-and-replace is the only durable answer.
Why Frankel Estate
Roof Waterproofing for Frankel Estate homes
Roof areas on these homes tend to be modest, which keeps total project cost reasonable. Many of the houses also have small accessible rooftop areas used for laundry or services, where the membrane must support occasional foot traffic. That pushes the spec toward torch-on bitumen with a protective screed rather than thinner PU-only systems.
Full torch-on system replacement on a modest roof is the typical job here. PU recoats remain popular where budgets are tight. We scope each roof after a free site assessment.
If the roof doubles as a laundry or services deck, say so when scoping the waterproofing: a membrane that will see foot traffic needs a protective screed or wearing layer, and the cheaper thin-coat systems that look fine on paper will not survive the traffic.
Common Questions
Roof Waterproofing in Frankel Estate: FAQ
How much does waterproofing cost per square foot in Singapore?
The cost depends on the system chosen (PU coatings, torch-on membranes, and cementitious systems with fabric reinforcement each carry different rates) as well as the roof area and the surface condition. We provide a tailored quote after a free roof inspection.
What is the best waterproofing method for a flat roof?
For Singapore flat roofs, torch-on modified bitumen membranes offer the best balance of durability and cost. They last 10 to 15 years and handle our UV and rainfall conditions well. For roofs with heavy foot traffic, cementitious waterproofing with a protective screed is preferred.
What is the difference between torch-on membrane and liquid membrane?
Torch-on membranes are pre-formed sheets heat-welded to the surface. They are very durable (10 to 15 years) but require skilled application. Liquid membranes (PU coatings) are painted on, easier to apply around complex shapes, but last 5 to 8 years. We recommend torch-on for large flat areas and liquid for detailed work.
Can you fix a roof leak as an emergency?
Yes. We offer emergency leak response for active roof leaks. We apply a temporary waterproof patch as quickly as the weather allows to stop immediate damage, then schedule the permanent repair once conditions permit.
What warranty do you offer for roof waterproofing?
Our premium torch-on membrane systems come with a 10-year material and workmanship warranty. PU coating systems carry a 5-year warranty. All warranties cover both materials and labour for any leak that develops in the treated area.
How long does roof waterproofing last?
Quality membrane systems last 10 to 15 years. Polyurethane coatings typically last 5 to 8 years before recoating is needed.
