Renovations and waterproofing in Parow
Solid older houses, long-standing damp and roofs that have been patched more than once. We start again from the detail.
Parow: good bones, tired waterproofing
Parow North and Parow East hold some of the most practical family houses in the northern suburbs. Bigger plots, solid walls, and garages or carports that have often been added later and tied into the original structure with less care than the house itself was built with. That is usually where the trouble is. A carport roof that meets the house wall without a proper flashing. A garage conversion where the original outside wall was never damp-proofed before it became an inside wall. A flat roof over a back room that has been patched with whatever was available and now holds water in the corners. We work on the whole envelope. Roof, flashings, parapets, external plaster, then the inside: ceilings, paint, tiles, and the joinery that water damage usually takes with it.
- Flashings, not patches: Most leaks at an added garage or carport are a flashing detail. We rebuild it properly rather than sealing over it.
- External plaster and paint: Cracks and blown plaster are cut back and repaired before painting, not filled and painted over.
- Local and reachable: Parow is minutes from our Goodwood base, so site visits do not cost you a call-out fee.
