Waterproofing for buildings that can't close.

Torch-on membrane, liquid systems and basement tanking — roof and structural waterproofing across Gauteng, specified properly, installed to system, and guaranteed in writing. We work around your trading hours, not the other way round.

We install these systems on your building. We are applicators, not suppliers — we do not sell materials.

The specification

What you're actually buying.

Most waterproofing failures are specification failures, not product failures — a membrane laid over an unprepared substrate will lift no matter whose name is on the roll. This is the build-up we quote, and the one we install.

01 Substrate preparation Grinding, removing laitance (the weak, dusty top layer), opening and filling cracks, and correcting the falls so water runs off instead of sitting. Moisture tested before anything goes down. < 5% moisture
02 Primer Bitumen or acrylic primer, matched both to the surface underneath and the membrane going over it. 0.3 kg/m²
03 Membrane Torch-on APP modified bitumen, or liquid-applied where detailing is complex and heat is not an option. 4 mm
04 Reinforcement & detailing Polyester fleece through the overlaps, the upstands where the membrane turns up against a wall, the outlets, and around every pipe coming through. This is where roofs fail, so this is where we spend the time. 165 g/m²
05 UV protective topcoat Reflective aluminium or acrylic. Without it a membrane degrades years early on a Highveld roof. 2 coats
06 Flood test & handover Tested, photographed and signed off. Written guarantee issued with the completion certificate. 24 hr test

Surfaces & systems

What we waterproof, and what goes on it.

Different surfaces fail in different ways, so they do not get the same system. Torch-on belongs on a concrete roof slab; it does not belong over a corroding IBR sheet, where heat is not an option at all. This is what we install where.

Concrete roof slabs

Torch-on membrane

Torch-on APP modified bitumen membrane, 4 mm, over a primed and prepared slab, with polyester fleece through every overlap and upstand. The standard flat roof waterproofing system, and the one most commercial roofs in Gauteng want.

Basements & retaining walls

Tanking

Water pushing in from outside is a different problem from water sitting on top. Tanking is specified against the water table and the structure, negative or positive side depending on what the building allows.

Gutters & box gutters

Gutter linings

Box gutters are where a great many warehouse leaks actually start, and they are usually the cheapest thing on the roof to put right. Lined and detailed into the outlets rather than patched.

Metal & IBR sheeting

Liquid-applied coatings

Heat is not an option over sheeting, so these go on liquid — the systems most people call liquid rubber. Laykold acrylic and bitumen-based membranes, reinforced through the laps and over every fastener, then finished with a reflective topcoat against the Highveld sun.

Past coating

Resheeting

Sometimes the honest answer is that the sheet is gone and no coating will save it. We will tell you that at the assessment rather than sell you a system that buys you eighteen months.

We are applicators, not suppliers — we install these systems on your building, we do not sell the materials on their own. We install Darachem and Laykold waterproofing systems, and Plascon and Dulux coatings, to each manufacturer’s specification. Which one goes on your building is a decision made at the assessment, against the substrate and the guarantee you need — not decided before we have seen the roof.

Scope

What we take on, and what we pass on.

Worth saying upfront so you can tell quickly whether we are the right fit. Most of our work is planned — specified, programmed and signed off. But if a roof is coming in tonight, phone us: there is no call-out fee, we get a team there, assess it and quote on site. What we are not is a handyman service, and for that we would rather point you to someone better suited than take it on badly.

Work we take on

  • Torch-on and liquid-applied flat roof systems
  • IBR, chromadek and tile roof spraying
  • Basement, foundation and retaining wall tanking (sealing out ground water)
  • Balcony and terrace waterproofing
  • Box gutter and valley gutter linings
  • Expansion joints and joint sealant replacement
  • Structural crack injection
  • Planned and preventive maintenance contracts
  • Multi-site portfolios and rollouts
  • Emergency leak response, assessed and quoted on site

Work we pass on

  • Handyman work — broken windows, taps, doors
  • Geyser, plumbing and internal water damage
  • Supply-only material orders
  • Insurance assessments with no appointed contractor
  • Sites outside Gauteng

Rain starts in October.

Gauteng takes almost all of its 700 mm in the summer thunderstorm season. Roofs booked in August get done in dry conditions, properly cured, before the first storm finds the fault.

Book a site assessment
How it runs

From first call to signed guarantee.

Consultation

We talk through the building, the history of the problem, your budget and the window you have available to do the work.

Site assessment

We come out, get onto the roof, and establish what is actually failing rather than what looks wet. You get findings with photographs.

Specification and quote

A written specification with the system build-up, materials, areas in m², programme and guarantee term. Issued within 24–48 hours of the assessment.

Execution

Licensed, insured tradespeople working to an agreed programme and OHS file. Clean sites, contained materials, and work scheduled around your operating hours where required.

Test, hand over, guarantee

We flood the roof to prove it holds, photograph the finished work, fix any snags, and issue the written guarantee with the completion documents.

Who you deal with

You deal with Antoni directly

Antoni Botes founded AnJo in 2005 after working every side of the table — main contractor, sub-contractor, project manager, professional team and client. He runs the assessments himself.

Compliance

Licensed, insured, OHS-compliant

Tradespeople are licensed and insured. Strict adherence to occupational health and safety regulation, with a site file for every project and clean, organised job sites throughout.

Scale

Comfortable on large sites

Antoni has run projects valued up to R250 million over twenty years in the trade, including multi-campus and multi-depot clients. Programme, phasing and reporting are normal parts of the job here.

Before you ask

Questions facilities managers ask us.

Do you charge a call-out fee?

No. We come out, get onto the roof and establish what is actually failing, and you get a written quote off the back of it. If a roof is coming in and you need someone there tomorrow morning, we will bring the team and the gear, assess it on site and quote you on the spot — and if you say go, we start.

Can you work outside our trading hours?

Yes. Retail, warehousing and schools almost always need it. We programme night work, weekend work and holiday-window work — it needs to be agreed upfront so it is priced in and the OHS file covers it.

What guarantee do you issue?

Between five and ten years depending on the system specified and the condition of the substrate. The term is stated in the quote before you commit, not decided afterwards, and the written guarantee is issued with the completion documentation.

Can you work on an occupied building?

Most of our work is on occupied buildings. It changes the method — containment, phasing, access control, odour management on liquid systems — and we would rather build that into the programme than surprise your tenants with it.

How quickly can we get a quote?

We respond to enquiries within two working hours and aim to be on site within a few days. The written specification and quote follow within 24 to 48 hours of the assessment.

Do you handle multi-site portfolios?

Yes, and it is where we do our best work. We already service clients with campuses and depots across multiple Gauteng locations, on planned maintenance programmes rather than reactive call-outs.

Will you take on a smaller first job?

Yes. Most of our longest-running client relationships started with one modest job on one building, and grew from there once the work held up. If you have a single problem roof and forty more behind it, that is a sensible way to start and we are happy to price it.
