Aquagard Training Academy
Hands-on training in waterproofing, damp-proofing, and roof repairs – based on real site conditions and decades of manufacturing and contracting expertise.
Aquagard Training Academy was created with one clear goal — to raise the standard of waterproofing and damp-proofing in South Africa.
With over 38 years of industry experience, our foundation comes from real, on-site knowledge. We don’t teach theory for the sake of it — we teach what actually works in practise.
Too many contractors are ignorant and use incorrect methods that lead to failures, call-backs, and unnecessary costs. Our training is designed to change that.
All on-site training takes place at our training facility in Laser Park, Honeydew, with sessions held on Saturdays.
We provide practical and theoretical, hands-on training for contractors, property maintenance teams, and individuals who want to understand waterproofing and damp-proofing properly.
Our courses focus on:
• Correct application methods
• identifying and diagnosing problems accurately
• Avoiding costly mistakes
• Understanding different systems and when to use them
• Applying best practises used in the real industry
Whether you’re new to the industry or looking to improve your skills, our training is built to give you confidence on-site.
To develop skilled, confident contractors who can deliver quality work and build trusted reputations in the industry.
To become the leading waterproofing and damp-proofing training academy in South Africa — and a trusted authority in the construction industry.
We don’t overcomplicate things — we focus on what actually matters on-site.

Aquagard Training Academy was started to bridge that gap — to equip people with the right knowledge and skills from the beginning.
