Waterproofing in Vikhroli, Mumbai
Atlanta Waterproofing & Protective System provides waterproofing and building restoration across Vikhroli (S Ward, pincodes 400079, 400083). The locality records around 2,500 mm of rain annually and is dominated by industrial and corporate campuses and company townships in the 10-60 years range. We are roughly 35 minutes away.
What makes Vikhroli different
Creek and mangrove adjacency gives a persistently high water table and brackish groundwater, which is aggressive to below-grade concrete. Basement specification here should assume chloride-bearing groundwater.
The building stock here is principally industrial and corporate campuses, company townships, creek-adjacent development, new residential towers, mostly in the 10-60 years band. The failure patterns that follow from that are creek-adjacent high water table, industrial large-span roof leakage, township stock at end of terrace service life.
We work throughout the area, including around Godrej campus, Vikhroli creek and mangroves, Kannamwar Nagar.
What we do in Vikhroli
- Terrace Waterproofing in Vikhroli
Terrace waterproofing is the application of a continuous water barrier across a roof slab, laid to a fall so rainwater drains rather than ponds.
- Basement Waterproofing in Vikhroli
Basement waterproofing protects a below-grade structure against groundwater under hydrostatic pressure.
- Bathroom Waterproofing in Vikhroli
Bathroom waterproofing seals the sunk slab and wet-area walls so water from daily use cannot reach the flat below.
- Toilet Waterproofing in Vikhroli
Toilet waterproofing seals the sunken slab, wall skirting and pipe penetrations of a WC area so water cannot migrate into the structure or the flat below.
- Brick Bat Coba Waterproofing in Vikhroli
Brick bat coba is the traditional Indian terrace system: broken brick pieces bedded in waterproofed cement mortar, laid to a fall and finished with china mosaic or IPS.
- China Mosaic Waterproofing in Vikhroli
China mosaic is a finish of broken glazed ceramic tile pieces set in waterproofed cement mortar over a terrace.
- APP Membrane Waterproofing in Vikhroli
APP membrane is an atactic-polypropylene-modified bitumen sheet, torch-applied to a primed substrate with lapped and sealed joints.
- SBS Membrane Waterproofing in Vikhroli
SBS membrane is a styrene-butadiene-styrene-modified bitumen sheet.
- HDPE Membrane Waterproofing in Vikhroli
HDPE membrane waterproofing uses a high-density polyethylene sheet, generally pre-applied below rafts and against retaining walls before concrete is poured.
- TPO Membrane Waterproofing in Vikhroli
TPO is a single-ply thermoplastic polyolefin membrane whose seams are hot-air welded rather than glued, producing a homogeneous joint as strong as the sheet.
- Polyurea Waterproofing in Vikhroli
Polyurea is a spray-applied, fast-setting elastomeric coating that gels within seconds and forms a seamless, high-elongation, highly abrasion-resistant membrane.
- PU Grouting in Vikhroli
PU grouting injects polyurethane resin under pressure into a leaking crack or joint.
- Injection Grouting in Vikhroli
Injection grouting forces a cementitious or epoxy grout under pressure into cracks, voids and honeycombed concrete to restore continuity and block water paths.
- Overhead Water Tank (OHWT) Waterproofing in Vikhroli
Overhead water tank waterproofing lines the internal faces of an elevated potable-water tank with a non-toxic, water-resistant system, and treats the external faces and base where leakage tracks into the structure below.
- Underground Water Tank (UGT) Waterproofing in Vikhroli
Underground tank waterproofing must resist water in both directions — the stored water pushing out, and groundwater pushing in.
- Swimming Pool Waterproofing in Vikhroli
Swimming pool waterproofing lines the pool shell so treated water cannot escape into the structure and so chemically treated water cannot attack the concrete.
- Podium Waterproofing in Vikhroli
Podium waterproofing protects a landscaped or trafficked deck sitting above occupied space — typically parking, a clubhouse or retail.
- Lift Pit Waterproofing in Vikhroli
Lift pit waterproofing seals the lowest point of a building's shaft, which sits below the water table in most of Mumbai and collects anything that runs down the shaft.
- External Plaster & Painting in Vikhroli
External plaster and painting is the building's first line of defence against driving rain.
- Building Restoration in Vikhroli
Building restoration is the structural rehabilitation of an ageing or distressed building — diagnosing why the concrete is failing, repairing it properly, and protecting it so it does not fail again.
Waterproofing in Vikhroli — questions we get asked
How quickly can you reach Vikhroli?
Our office is in Jogeshwari West, about 9 km from Vikhroli, and we normally allow around 35 minutes in off-peak traffic. We also work regularly in Powai, Ghatkopar, Bhandup, so a crew is often already in this part of the city.
Why do buildings in Vikhroli leak more than elsewhere?
Vikhroli records roughly 2,500 mm of rain a year, measured at the IMD Santacruz observatory, suburbs. Combined with industrial and corporate campuses and company townships in the 10-60 years range, the recurring problems here are creek-adjacent high water table and industrial large-span roof leakage. It is less that Vikhroli leaks more, and more that it leaks in a particular and fairly predictable way.
Which BMC ward is Vikhroli in, and does that matter?
Vikhroli falls under S Ward (S), covering pincodes 400079, 400083. It matters practically rather than technically: ward boundaries govern which office handles permissions, notices and any municipal correspondence a society may need during major repair work.
Vikhroli is not on the coast — is waterproofing less critical here?
No, the failure mode simply differs. Without direct salt exposure, chloride-driven corrosion is slower, but Vikhroli still takes about 2,500 mm of rain annually. The dominant problems here are creek-adjacent high water table and industrial large-span roof leakage, which are just as capable of ruining a top-floor flat.
Is Vikhroli on reclaimed land, and what does that mean for a basement?
Yes, substantially. Reclaimed ground retains water, continues to settle for decades, and puts a sustained hydrostatic head against below-grade structures. In practice that means a basement here needs a continuous wrapped barrier and water stops at every construction joint, plus working sump and dewatering provision. An internally applied coating on its own is being asked to hold back pressure from the wrong side.
