Professional Flat Roof Waterproofing & Seamless Aluminium Gutters in Bryanston

7:24 Roofing recently completed a comprehensive roofing project at a residential property in Bryanston, Sandton, where the homeowner was experiencing persistent water leaks from a flat concrete roof and inadequate rainwater drainage caused by undersized gutters.
Following a detailed roof inspection, 7:24 Roofing identified that the existing waterproofing system had reached the end of its service life and the roof surface required corrective falls to allow water to drain efficiently. To provide a long-lasting solution, 7:24 Roofing carried out a complete flat roof restoration together with the installation of a new seamless aluminium gutter system around the entire property.

Flat Roof Leak Repairs in Bryanston

The existing waterproofing membrane was carefully removed together with all loose and deteriorated screed. The concrete roof slab was prepared before installing a newly engineered screed with the correct falls to ensure positive drainage towards the outlet.
Once the new screed had fully cured, 7:24 Roofing installed a premium 4mm torch-on Malthoid waterproofing membrane across the entire flat roof. Special attention was given to all upstands, wall junctions, outlets and internal corners to ensure every vulnerable area was effectively sealed.
After completion of the waterproofing installation, the roof received two coats of silver aluminium reflective coating, protecting the membrane against UV exposure while reducing heat absorption and extending the lifespan of the waterproofing system.

This complete roofing system now provides the homeowner with a durable, weather-resistant solution designed to withstand Johannesburg's harsh summer storms.
Seamless Aluminium Gutter Installation
As part of the same project, the existing small-profile gutters around the entire home were removed and replaced with large-profile seamless aluminium gutters.
Unlike sectional gutters, seamless gutters have significantly fewer joints, reducing the possibility of leaks while improving the flow of rainwater during heavy downpours.

the company's seamless gutter installation included:

Removal and disposal of all existing gutters
Supply and installation of large-profile seamless aluminium gutters
New heavy-duty concealed brackets
Correct falls to all gutter runs
Connection to existing downpipes
Complete testing of the drainage system
The result is a cleaner appearance, improved drainage capacity and a much lower maintenance requirement.
