Waterproofing Services in Hohoe, Volta Region (2026 Guide)
Share
Fest Ghana Limited installs polyurethane roof, wall, and gutter waterproofing in Hohoe and across the Volta Region, using a 2-coat polyurethane membrane with a 3-year workmanship warranty and a 20-year engineered design life. Installed pricing runs GHS 80-130 per square metre for standard roofs, rising to GHS 180-280 per square metre where fleece reinforcement is needed.
Why Hohoe's Terrain Is Hard on Roofs and Walls
Hohoe sits at the base of the Gemi Range in the Volta Region, one of Ghana's wettest and hilliest zones. Annual rainfall in the area runs comparable to Koforidua's 1,400-1,600mm, and the hillside terrain around Wli and Tagbo Falls means water runs fast and hard off roofs during a downpour, concentrating stress at gutters, parapets, and downpipe outlets. Humidity stays high year-round, which is exactly the condition under which unsealed concrete absorbs water, carbonates, and eventually lets rebar rust and spall.
What We Waterproof in Hohoe
Most of our Hohoe work falls into a few categories: guesthouses and small hotels serving the falls tourism trade, where a leaking roof directly costs bookings; church and school roofs, often large spans with limited maintenance budgets; and family compound homes with flat or low-pitch concrete roofs showing the first signs of ceiling staining. We also handle water tanks, retaining walls on sloped plots, and parapet walls, which fail faster than open roof fields because they take direct rain on two exposed faces.
Our Process
| Step | What Happens |
|---|---|
| 1. Site survey | We measure the roof, check fall/drainage, and identify cracks, ponding, and failed joints. |
| 2. Substrate prep | Pressure washing, crack repair, and priming of the concrete or metal surface. |
| 3. First coat | Polyurethane coating applied at the correct wet film thickness and left to cure. |
| 4. Second coat | Applied at 90 degrees to the first coat for full, pinhole-free coverage. |
| 5. Inspection & handover | We walk the roof with you and issue the workmanship warranty documentation. |
Pricing in Hohoe
| System | Installed Rate |
|---|---|
| 2-coat polyurethane (open roof field) | GHS 80-130/m² |
| Fleece-reinforced (parapets, gutters, cracked substrate) | GHS 180-280/m² |
| Torch-on membrane | GHS 150-220/m² |
How Much Material Your Roof Actually Needs
This is the number most quotes in the Volta Region get wrong. Our Polyurethane Coating covers 20-40 m² per coat for the 5kg pail (GHS 500) and 40-80 m² per coat for the 10kg pail (GHS 1,000). Because every roof needs two coats, the finished coverage is half that: 10-20 m² for the 5kg pail and 20-40 m² for the 10kg pail. A documented 370 m² project at Kpone Katamanso used 150kg of coating across two coats — a working rate of about 0.41 kg per square metre. Use that figure, not the per-coat number, when you're budgeting quantities for a Hohoe roof.
Warranty and Design Life, Explained Plainly
The warranty is the period we return and fix it at our cost. The design life is how long the membrane is engineered to keep performing. Anyone in Ghana offering a warranty as long as the design life is quoting one figure under the wrong heading. Fest Ghana's workmanship warranty is 3 years, our manufacturer material warranty is 3 years, and the polyurethane system is engineered for a 20-year design life. In an inland location like Hohoe, without coastal salt exposure, that generally translates to 18-20 years of real service life with basic upkeep — clearing gutters, checking parapet joints after each rainy season.

We've applied the same fleece-reinforced system to a failing parapet in Madina, Accra, and used the full two-coat process on a 370 m² roof and wall job in Kpone Katamanso — the project that gives us our most defensible coverage figure.
