Shop Roff under tile waterproofing – full range
Waterproofing beneath tiles helps protect the underlying surface from moisture, seepage, and water-related damage before the tiling work begins. Our range of Roff waterproofing products includes solutions for concrete repair, bonding, wet areas, and flexible cementitious waterproofing applications. Products such as Roff R01 Supercrete, Roff W01 Bond Repair, and Roff C01 Hyguard EX can be selected according to the surface condition and project requirements.
Applying waterproofing before tiling is particularly important in bathrooms, toilets, balconies, terraces, kitchens, and other areas regularly exposed to moisture. Choosing the right product and following the recommended application process can help create a suitable base for subsequent tiling work.

Shop by waterproofing area
Bathroom waterproofing before tiling
Bathrooms and toilets are exposed to frequent water contact, making suitable surface waterproofing important before tiles are installed. Choose a product according to the surface and waterproofing requirement.
Terrace and roof waterproofing under tiles
Terraces and roofs experience rain, sunlight, and temperature changes. Select a waterproofing product designed for the relevant surface and exposure before installing tiles.
Balcony waterproofing solution
Balconies can experience rainwater and regular moisture exposure. Proper surface preparation and waterproofing before tiling can help protect the underlying concrete and masonry.
Waterproofing for kitchen wall and floor
Kitchen floors and walls around sinks and wet areas can experience repeated water exposure. A suitable waterproofing treatment can help prepare these surfaces before tiling.
Waterproofing for swimming pool tiles
Swimming pool areas require waterproofing appropriate for prolonged water exposure. Product selection should consider the substrate, application conditions, and requirements of the pool construction.
Why waterproofing before tiling matters
Tiles and grout provide a finished surface, but they should not be treated as the only protection against water penetration. If the underlying surface is not properly prepared and waterproofed where required, moisture can find its way into cracks, joints, and porous areas.
Over time, this can contribute to damp patches, seepage into adjacent walls, loose or lifted tiles, damaged surfaces, and repeated repair work. Areas such as bathrooms, balconies, kitchens, and terraces are particularly exposed to moisture and therefore need suitable preparation before tiling.
A properly prepared leakage-proof tile base starts with assessing the substrate, addressing cracks or defects, and selecting a compatible waterproofing product. Following the manufacturer's application and curing instructions is equally important. Waterproofing at the appropriate stage can help protect the surface beneath the tiles and reduce avoidable maintenance issues.
Roff waterproofing application process
The exact method depends on the selected Roff product, so always follow its product instructions. A typical application sequence includes:
- Prepare the surface: Remove dust, loose material, grease, and other contaminants. Repair suitable cracks or damaged areas.
- Apply the first coat: Mix and apply the Roff waterproofing chemical according to the manufacturer's specified proportions and coverage.
- Apply a second coat if required: Follow the product instructions for coat direction, thickness, and recoat timing.
- Allow proper curing: Give the waterproofing layer sufficient time to cure before covering it.
- Proceed with tiling: Once the waterproofed surface is ready, begin the tiling work using the appropriate tile adhesive and installation method.

Chemical vs liquid waterproofing: which do you need?
The terms chemical and liquid waterproofing can refer to different types of waterproofing materials, so product selection should be based on the formulation and intended application rather than the name alone. Some waterproofing products are supplied as liquid polymers, while others are cementitious systems that are mixed before application.
For example, an acrylic or SBR-based product may be used as a modifier, bonding agent, or component of a waterproofing system. A flexible cementitious coating such as Roff C01 Hyguard EX is formulated differently and is applied according to its specific mixing and coating instructions.
When comparing Roff waterproofing chemical with Roff waterproofing liquid, consider the surface, location, moisture exposure, required flexibility, and manufacturer's recommended use. Bathrooms, terraces, balconies, and other wet areas may have different requirements. The right choice depends on the actual substrate and application rather than simply choosing one format over another.
Common waterproofing mistakes to avoid
Skipping the curing time
Rushing the curing process can affect waterproofing performance and adhesion. Allow the recommended curing time before tiling to give the coating sufficient time to develop properly.
Applying on a dirty or damp surface
Dust, grease, loose particles, or unsuitable moisture conditions can affect adhesion. Clean and prepare the surface properly before starting any wet area waterproofing application.
Ignoring corners and joints
Corners, joints, cracks, and wall-floor junctions can be vulnerable points for water entry. Pay careful attention to these areas and follow the product's application instructions.
Using an indoor product for outdoor areas
Indoor and outdoor surfaces face different moisture and weather conditions. For waterproofing under roof tiles, always choose a product recommended for the relevant outdoor surface and exposure.

Frequently asked questions
Do I need waterproofing before tiling?
Waterproofing may be required beneath tiles in areas exposed to regular water or moisture, such as bathrooms, balconies, terraces, kitchens, and other wet areas. The need and product selection depend on the substrate and project conditions.
How does under-tile waterproofing work?
Under-tile waterproofing creates a protective layer or treatment on the underlying surface before tiles are installed. It helps limit moisture penetration into the substrate when the correct product and application method are used.
Is terrace waterproofing different from bathroom waterproofing?
The exposure conditions can differ. Bathrooms mainly experience regular water and moisture, while terraces may also face rain, sunlight, and temperature changes. Choose a product according to the surface and the manufacturer's recommended application.
What's the best waterproofing solution for balconies?
There is no single product suitable for every balcony. The right option depends on the substrate, existing surface condition, water exposure, and whether the product is recommended for that application.
Can waterproofing prevent tile leakage over time?
Proper waterproofing can help reduce the risk of moisture-related leakage, but performance also depends on surface preparation, correct application, curing, joints, drainage, and the overall tiling system.
Do I need special waterproofing for swimming pool tiles?
Swimming pools require waterproofing systems suitable for prolonged water exposure and compatible with the pool substrate and tile installation system. Product selection should follow the manufacturer's stated application requirements.
