Torch-On Waterproofing for Flat Factory Roofs in Gauteng

Industrial-Grade Torch-On Waterproofing You Can Rely On

At QFR (Quality Fix Roofing), we specialise in torch-on waterproofing for flat factory roofs, offering long-lasting protection against leaks, UV damage, and structural deterioration. Our systems are designed specifically for the demands of industrial environments in Gauteng, including Johannesburg, Pretoria, and surrounding areas.

Whether you manage a warehouse, manufacturing plant, or distribution centre, QFR provides durable waterproofing that protects your assets and extends your roof’s lifespan.

What is Torch-On Waterproofing?

Torch-on waterproofing is a robust system that uses bitumen-based membranes applied with heat (torch). The result is a seamless, water-tight barrier ideal for:

  • Flat or low-slope concrete roofs

  • Metal deck roofs with insulation

  • Large-span factory and warehouse structures

This method is widely used in commercial and industrial roofing due to its long lifespan (10–20+ years), high durability, and excellent weather resistance.

Why Torch-On is Ideal for Flat Factory Roofs

Flat factory roofs are prone to water pooling and leak risks. Torch-on waterproofing offers key benefits:

Seamless Waterproofing – Prevents water ingress at joints or overlaps
UV & Weather Resistant – Handles harsh Gauteng sun and seasonal storms
Fire Retardant Options Available – Safer for industrial facilities
Low Maintenance – Once installed, systems require minimal upkeep
Cost-Effective Over Time – Reduces the frequency and cost of repairs

Our Process

At QFR, we ensure your waterproofing solution is built to last. Our approach includes:

  1. On-site inspection and roof assessment

  2. Surface preparation and primer application

  3. Torch-on membrane installation (single or multi-layer)

  4. Detailing around penetrations, joints, and edges

  5. Final inspection and quality assurance check

We use only SABS-approved torch-on membranes and materials sourced from trusted suppliers.
