Waterproofing Services in Prampram — Complete 2026 Guide
Share
Fest Ghana Limited provides professional waterproofing in Prampram and the Ningo-Prampram district, covering roofs, parapets, water tanks and bathrooms. Because Prampram sits directly on the Atlantic coastline, every specification here accounts for salt exposure — the single biggest variable that separates a job that lasts from one that doesn't.
Why Prampram Needs a Different Spec Than Inland Accra
Prampram's beachfront and near-beach properties sit inside the 15km coastal salt zone. Airborne chloride settles on roofs and walls daily, accelerating membrane degradation and, on unprotected concrete, corroding embedded rebar. Roof surfaces here can reach 75°C under Ghana's UV index of 11+, and daily thermal swings of roughly 20°C put continuous stress on any coating that isn't formulated to flex.
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 "20-year warranty" on waterproofing is quoting design life under the wrong heading — we keep the two figures separate: a 3-year workmanship warranty, a 3-year manufacturer material warranty, and a 20-year design life.
Realistic Service Life in Prampram
| System | Design Life | Realistic Service Life in Prampram |
|---|---|---|
| Standard 2-coat polyurethane | 20 years | 14-17 years |
| Coastal-rated fleece-reinforced + chloride-blocking primer | 20 years | 17-20 years |
What We Cover in Prampram
Roofs and Parapets
Two-coat polyurethane over sound concrete, GHS 80-130/m² installed. Fleece-reinforced membrane is worth specifying at parapets, gutters, upstands and penetrations — anywhere movement or cracking concentrates — at GHS 180-280/m². It is not worth doubling the cost across a sound, uncracked open roof field, since fleece and standard PU share the same 20-year design life; fleece bridges cracks up to about 3mm rather than the roughly 0.3mm a standard film can bridge.
Water Tanks and Bathrooms
Concrete and polytank waterproofing, plus full wet-area systems before tiling, are available on the same coastal-adjusted specification.
Coverage — Get the Quantity Right
Coverage is quoted per coat, and two coats are required. Our 5kg Polyurethane Coating (GHS 500) covers 20-40 m² per coat, or 10-20 m² finished with two coats. Our 10kg Polyurethane Coating (GHS 1,000) covers 40-80 m² per coat, or 20-40 m² finished with two coats. As a working rate for take-off, budget roughly 0.4 kg per square metre across both coats — a figure confirmed on a documented 370 m² project in Kpone Katamanso, which used 150 kg (0.41 kg/m²).
