Garden Route Roof Waterproofing & Rubberising

From Mossel Bay to Knysna and everywhere in between, the Garden Route’s temperate coastal climate means plenty of rain — and plenty of leaky roofs. Properties in George, Wilderness, Sedgefield and Plettenberg Bay face unique challenges: high humidity, strong seasonal winds and constant moisture that breaks down conventional roof coatings.

Ecowise Rubberise applies Eco Rubber, a water-borne elastomeric membrane that creates a seamless, waterproof barrier over your existing roof. It bonds to tile, IBR, flat, Nutec and metal roofs, flexing with the building as temperatures change and staying intact through the Cape winter rains.

Roof waterproofing in Garden Route towns

We serve the full Garden Route corridor with dedicated local teams and fast response times. Choose your town to see the specific roof challenges in your area and what Eco Rubber does about them:

• Roof waterproofing in George — the largest Garden Route town, with a mix of family homes, sectional-title complexes and commercial buildings.
• Roof waterproofing in Mossel Bay — coastal salt air and strong south-easters make corrosion the #1 roof enemy here.
• Roof waterproofing in Knysna — lagoon-side humidity, forest moisture and holiday homes that often sit empty between visits.
• Roof waterproofing in Plettenberg Bay — high-rainfall coastal town with many second homes that need protection year-round.

Why the Garden Route trusts Eco Rubber

• Winter-ready: Handles persistent rain and damp conditions without breaking down.
• Mould & mildew resistant: The smooth surface discourages biological growth common in wet climates.
• UV reflective: Keeps buildings cooler in summer, reducing energy costs.
• One-coat system: Quick application with minimal disruption to your stay or business.
• Low VOC & non-toxic: Safe for homes, gardens and the natural environment.

Common Garden Route roof problems

• Salt-air corrosion: Coastal towns like Mossel Bay and Plettenberg Bay expose metal roofs and flashings to constant salt spray. Eco Rubber seals the surface and stops rust from starting.
• Winter rain ingress: The Garden Route’s wet season finds every crack in aged sealants, valley flashings and roof sheeting. A seamless membrane removes the leak paths.
• Humidity and mould: Forest and lagoon humidity in Knysna and Wilderness encourages mould, mildew and algae on roofs. Eco Rubber’s smooth, UV-reflective surface discourages growth.
• Neglected holiday homes: Second homes that sit empty between visits often leak for weeks before anyone notices. A once-off rubber membrane means the roof stays protected whether you are there or not.

Roof types we treat on the Garden Route

Eco Rubber works on tile roofs, IBR and corrugated iron, flat and concrete roofs, Nutec, asbestos and metal roofs. Minimal surface preparation is needed and the one-coat system goes on fast with spray or brush.
