How It Works

From first drip to dry, in four steps

Start with a few photos. We find the source, quote one fixed price, then build a full waterproofing system — layer by layer — and prove it with a flood test.

Tiles or protection screedMembrane — upstands & drains detailedPrimerScreed laid to fallsConcrete slab
A waterproofing system, not a coat of paint — every layer and every upstand matters.

  1. Send photos on WhatsApp

    Photograph the stain, the leak and the area above it. We tell you the likely cause straight away — and whether a site survey is needed.

  2. Survey & fixed quote in 24 hours

    We confirm the source with moisture readings and testing, then send one fixed quote for the right system — no surprise costs later.

  3. We waterproof it properly

    Surface prepared, details reinforced and the membrane applied by our own team — with a photo record of every layer.

  4. Flood test & handover

    Horizontal surfaces are flood-tested before handover, you get a photo record of each layer, and we come back if it ever leaks again.

Two minutes — we reply with the likely cause and next step.

Why Leaks Come Back

A patch job, or a proper waterproofing system?

Most leaks we're called to have been 'fixed' before — usually with a coat of sealant over the symptom. Water always finds the gap that was skipped.

The quick patch

Cheap today, wet next winter

  • 1Guess the cause — quoted from the stain, not the source
  • 2Coat over the top — waterproof paint or sealant on the surface
  • 3Skip the details — drains, upstands and thresholds left as they were
  • 4No test — you find out it failed at the next heavy rain
RecommendedThe Maawa way

Fixed once, properly

  • Find the source first — thermal, moisture, pressure and dye tests
  • Prepare the surface — failed layers removed, cracks and falls repaired
  • Build a full system — primer, membrane and every detail reinforced
  • Prove it — flood-tested and photo-recorded

We reply with the likely cause — and whether a survey is needed.

Who We Help

Residential and commercial waterproofing

Villas, apartment buildings and commercial sites each leak in different places. Choose yours to see what we cover.

Roofs, terraces, pools and tanks — the whole villa

Villas have the most to waterproof: flat roofs and terraces, en-suite bathrooms, a pool, water tanks and sometimes a basement. We survey the whole property and fix each area with the right system.

Waterproofing Questions

Straight answers about leaks and waterproofing

The questions Dubai and Sharjah owners and building managers ask us most.

No. Book the waterproofing within 30 days of your leak-detection visit and the detection fee comes off your price. You only pay for detection on its own if you decide not to go ahead.

Waterproofing is priced by area and system, not per hour. As a guide, roof waterproofing typically runs AED 35–80 per m² depending on the membrane, and a full bathroom waterproofing redo AED 3,500–7,500 including retiling. Send photos and you receive one fixed quote after we confirm the source of the leak.

With non-destructive testing: thermal imaging, moisture mapping, pipe pressure tests, and dye or flood tests on wet areas, roofs and terraces. The source is often far from where the stain appears, so we confirm it before quoting — you never pay to waterproof the wrong area.

It depends on the surface. Torch-on bitumen or PU liquid membranes for roofs, cementitious or PU membranes for bathrooms and pools, food-grade linings for water tanks, PU injection for active leaks through concrete, and trafficable PU or polyurea for car parks. We recommend the system after seeing the job.

We come back. We don't issue a written warranty certificate; instead, if water comes through an area we waterproofed, message us and we return to inspect it. If the cause is our work or materials, we put it right at no extra cost. Horizontal surfaces are flood-tested before handover, and you get a photo record of each layer.

Yes — warehouses, factories, offices, residential towers, podiums and car parks. We provide condition reports for owners, FM companies and owners associations, and phase the work so the building keeps operating.

All of Dubai and Sharjah — from Dubai Marina, JVC, Downtown, Palm Jumeirah, Arabian Ranches and Mirdif to Al Majaz, Al Nahda, Al Khan, Muwaileh and Aljada in Sharjah — plus commercial and industrial zones such as JAFZA, Al Quoz, DIP and Sharjah Industrial Area.

Fix it now. Water that keeps getting in corrodes reinforcement, breaks down screed and grows mould, so the repair only gets bigger. The UAE's dry months are actually the best time to waterproof — surfaces are dry and the work is done before the winter rains.
