The wrong membrane on the right surface still fails. Here's how we choose between the six systems we apply, and where each one belongs.
Modified bitumen sheets heat-fused directly onto the substrate with a torch, forming a thick, continuous, heavy-duty barrier. The standard choice for large flat roofs and podium decks that need long-term durability.
Torch membrane gives the thickest, most continuous barrier of any system we apply — ideal where the roof will be walked on, exposed to standing water, or covered by pavers.
PU cures into a fully bonded, seamless coat with no joints or laps to fail — the right choice anywhere the shape is irregular, like a shower tray or balcony upstand.
A liquid-applied polyurethane coating that cures into a seamless, highly flexible membrane. It moves with the structure rather than cracking, making it the standard for bathrooms, balconies and complex shapes.
Atactic Polypropylene modified bitumen, engineered for high UV resistance and stability under prolonged sun exposure — a strong fit for exposed rooftops that sit in direct Dubai sun year-round.
APP membrane holds its surface integrity under sustained heat and UV better than standard bitumen, reducing the surface cracking common on unshaded Dubai rooftops.
SBS stretches and recovers with the roof deck's daily heat expansion and contraction, resisting the fine cracking that rigid systems develop over time.
Styrene-Butadiene-Styrene modified bitumen, prized for elasticity across a wide temperature range — the right call on roofs experiencing repeated thermal movement.
A breathable, elastic acrylic coating applied to exterior walls and parapets. It sheds light rainfall and resists sun degradation while still letting trapped moisture escape from within the wall.
Because it's breathable, acrylic coating won't trap existing dampness inside a wall — critical when treating walls that already show damp staining.
Cementitious systems bond directly to concrete and resist constant water pressure from one side — exactly the condition inside a basement wall or water tank.
A rigid, cement-based coating with strong mechanical bond to concrete — the standard for structures under constant water pressure like basements, tanks and swimming pools.
We'll recommend the right one after a free on-site inspection.
