The 5 Best Waterproofing Contractors Longtime KL Homeowners Trust
One of the best parts about living in Malaysia is that it isn’t affected by typhoons the same way as the Pacific Northwest area is. However, this isn’t to say that it doesn’t experience occasional strong rain showers.
As a longtime Kuala Lumpur homeowner, the main tip I’d give you when it rains is that, even if it’s just a small leak, it’s best to get it checked out. Don’t make the same mistakes as we did!
Even better, prevent leaks from happening by finding the right waterproofing contractor—that’s where my team and I come in. Since getting our home waterproofed, we’ve had zero problems whenever these rainshowers come, so keep on reading to do the same for yours!
What is the average cost of waterproofing in KL?
Waterproofing in KL can cost anywhere between RM5 and RM15 per square foot, depending on the method and the contractors’ labour costs.

Nano-G immediately stood out to us because of its state-of-the-art nanotechnology waterproofing solution. We inquired about this, and the representative clearly and patiently explained how this is graded higher in terms of resistance to abrasion and deterioration.
Our interviewees also shared that they never had to repair any leaks or damage in their rooms since having their homes waterproofed by Nano-G. They also highlighted how easy it was to work with this contractor.
For starters, Nano-G offers a free inspection that clients can book easily through their website. It was also mentioned that their inspector arrived at their homes promptly, with some even saying they had their homes inspected the same day of the inquiry.
Lastly, our confidence was further cemented when we saw their previous clients, which included Hospital Putrajaya and other major clinical establishments.
We only wish that they could also operate on weekends and offer emergency services.
Very professional
“Just completed waterproofing work on my car porch ceiling. Very professional and tidy work. Even in the hard-to-reach areas. Explain the defects and solutions clearly.”
– Zul Said, Google Review
This service should be acknowledged!
“Thank you, Nano-G. En. Noh came by and did the inspections on our leaking issues. Apparently, our problems were not the job they could offer. Anyway, Noh made the inspections and showed us the exact issues we are facing.
To me, this act of service should be acknowledged! It’s fortunate for Nano-G to have such a team member, ie En. Noh specifically. I am more aware of my issues now than before. Thank you, Nano-G & En. Noh.”

Business hours:
- Monday to Friday: 7:30 AM to 6:30 PM

Desa Aman Construction was recommended to us for its transparency. Previous clients stated how the contractors handled their budget like it was theirs, often finding the best value-for-money in terms of materials and making sure that there are no additional costs.
From what we’ve gathered, Desa Aman’s workers possess expertise in waterproofing. We’ve heard from previous clients that their homes never had any issues with leakages, even during heavy rain showers after waterproofing their homes with this contractor.
Furthermore, they also highlighted the workers’ professionalism, stating that they always showed up on time and that they cleaned up after themselves after working. However, we would’ve liked it if they improved their responsiveness via phone and email.
Lastly, we also liked how Desa Aman offered different waterproofing solutions, including injection waterproofing and waterproof membrane, to cater to different needs.
We reached out to clients who have tried these, and they said that the workers helped them decide which solution to try through thorough inspections and questions.
Helpful and responsive
“Very professional service provided. The staff are very helpful and responsive towards the message/response. Most importantly, the boss is very nice, sincere and willing to share all knowledge about waterproofing.
The price is also very reasonable. Overall, it’s highly recommended if you wish to have professional, friendly and responsible services.”
– Li Sze Lai, Google Review
Smooth and stress-free
“I rarely write reviews, but I feel this one is well deserved. I engaged Desa Aman for some waterproofing work at my home, and from start to finish, the experience was smooth and stress-free.
He was punctual, explained the problem clearly, and gave me options — never pushing for the most expensive solution, but instead suggesting ways to fix it effectively without overspending. That kind of honesty is hard to find these days.
I appreciate his professionalism and the fact that he treats his customers’ money like his own. I wouldn’t hesitate to recommend him to anyone looking for a trustworthy waterproofing specialist.”

3. Real Solutions Waterproofing Sdn Bhd
Services: Roof leakage repair, bathroom waterproofing, concrete roof waterproofing, injection grouting
Location: 84, Jalan Belabas, Kepong Baru
Contact: +60 18-203 4788
Business hours: Daily from 8:30 AM to 6:00 PM
Real Solutions Waterproofing’s 15 years of experience were one of the main reasons we included it in our review.
We dug deeper and were further impressed that throughout their years in the business, they haven’t had a single negative review. However, we must say that the testimonials at hand at the time of writing are a bit limited compared to other companies in KL.
One of the things we liked about this contractor is their in-depth consultation session, where clients are given the floor to talk about their house’s problems. It’s followed by an inspection, and from there, the workers will provide solutions to fix the leakages.
We were also impressed with the quick turnaround time of their services. Clients told us how efficient the team worked on their home after the inspection, and they were surprised that the overall process only took an hour and a half or so.
Lastly, their sealants are the sturdiest kinds that are both weather-resistant and strengthening agents for the roofs themselves.
Reasonable price
“Very good service from Jason. Explained very well and updated the work progress time to time to make sure you understand the process. Highly recommend. Reasonable price with 5-star services”

- Sunday: 12:00 AM to 6:00 AM
- Monday: 8:00 AM to 12:00 AM
Aathaworld Sdn Bhd is among the most reputable waterproofing companies in KL due to its rich portfolio. We’ve seen their works in both commercial and residential properties, some of which they’ve also designed themselves.
We also liked how varied their waterproofing solutions were, targeting different parts such as piping, cracked walls, slabs, and roofs. Previous clients were also kind to provide before-and-after photos, and we were impressed with the seamless finishes.
One thing that came up frequently when we talked to their previous clients was Aathaworld’s hands-on approach. They said that from the inspection down to the repair itself, their contractor made the entire experience smooth and stress-free.
Furthermore, they mentioned how the workers would constantly provide updates to their clients throughout the repair/renovation. We only wish that they would possess the same responsiveness during the first inquiry, as some clients said that it took them a day to respond.
Always attentive
“Great experience with this supplier. Very fast response time and always attentive when preparing quotations. Makes the tendering process smooth and efficient.”
– Wan Amylin Lyana Wan Ariff, Google Review
Highly recommend this company
“Very responsive and fast! I called them at the last minute, early in the morning, to make custom red carpets and needed them to measure my client’s place, and guess what, 2 hours later, they were already at my client’s place doing measurements.
So fast. Thanks for your good service. I highly recommend this company to everyone.”

5. Wai Hong Brothers Sdn. Bhd.
Services: Slab waterproofing, roof tiles installation, roof tiles repair and installation, insulation
Location: B1-G-45, 1/3, Jalan Pinggiran Putra
Contact: +60 10-946 7118
Business hours:
- Monday to Friday: 8:30 AM to 5:30 PM
- Saturday: 8:30 AM to 1:00 PM
We wanted to include Wai Hong Brothers because of their reliable waterproofing services. Our interviewees told us that they haven’t repaired their roofs ever since being sealed, and even then, they’re not worried since the company offers a 10-year warranty on their services.
Previous clients also praised Wai Hong Brothers’ workers for their professionalism, noting they were never late and always worked efficiently.
We also appreciated how these professionals would communicate any issues they found in the client’s house and provide in-depth explanations of their solutions.
Wai Hong Brothers is also praised for their expertise in flat roofs, which are among the toughest to waterproof due to water buildup. However, the company offers numerous solutions, from injections to membranes to cementitious waterproofing.
The only downside here is the slightly pricey rates, with some clients even noting they weren’t given any wiggle room in their budgets. Furthermore, we wished they would provide financing options to alleviate this issue slightly.
Extremely satisfied with the overall experience
“I recently engaged Wai Hong Brother for repair works, assisted by Salesman Darren and Site Manager Yu Xuan, and I’m extremely satisfied with the overall experience. Their professionalism, clarity in explanation, and follow-through were truly impressive.
The leaking issue at my property had been a long-standing concern, but their team handled it with top-tier workmanship. They completed the repairs efficiently, and I monitored the results for over a month before giving this review.
Even through several heavy thunderstorms, there wasn’t a single drop of leakage afterwards — a clear sign that the job was done to perfection.
Both Darren and Yu Xuan were attentive, responsive, and consistently updated me throughout the process. Their commitment to quality and customer satisfaction really shows.
I strongly recommend their service and products to anyone looking for reliable and professional repair work. Truly a job well done.”

Punctual, efficient, and paid attention to every detail
“I recently hired WaiHong Brothers Roof Work for my home, and I’m very satisfied with the results. The team was punctual, efficient, and paid attention to every detail.
They inspected thoroughly before starting, kept the work area clean, and completed everything ahead of schedule. The quality of the roofing work is excellent — no more leaks even after heavy rain. Definitely a trustworthy contractor! And thank you, Jia Jun teams as well~!”
