Waterproofing Services
Our Services
Waterproofing is vital in all buildings to stop water and moisture from entering the structural areas of the building and causing damage. Common wet areas in household buildings include the bathroom, laundry and kitchen.
However, balconies, roofs, walls, basements and garages are all susceptible to water and also need to be waterproofed. Water may also cause damage in areas that are poorly ventilated so, where possible, ventilation needs to be improved. If not possible, then a waterproofing system should be applied.
- Areas to Waterproof

Why Waterproof
- It is a council requirement (however first check with your council to the extent of their requirement)
- To prevent substrate damage under wet areas in bathrooms and/or wet areas
- On deck surfaces to prevent moisture damaging areas beneath
- Compressed AC sheeting, ply or concrete Decks
- Around retaining walls to prevent moisture travelling into the negative areas

Shower Recess Areas
Proper waterproofing in wet areas is absolutely vital – water leaking into floor and wall spaces can very easily rot structural timbers and do some heartbreaking damage. The worst bit about this kind of damage is that you won’t normally realise it’s happening until the worst of the damage has already been done.
Bathroom, WC and Laundry
Because they’re likely to see more water than any other area inside your house, it’s particularly important that bathroom floors are properly waterproofed. There are regulations that your waterproofing will need to comply with, as set out by the Building Code of Australia and Australian Standards (AS 3740-1994).
Pottable Water Tanks
Underground water tanks are susceptible to water ingress from external sources like surrounding soil as well as soluble salts can infiltrate the tank and cause reinforcement attack if not properly waterproof. Our comprehensive waterproofing solutions can keep your structure free from any harmful chemical attack.

We use specifically designed wet area studs to protect against borers and termites when carrying out repairs to wall studs. Walls which require re-sheeting will be fitted with wet area cement sheeting as required by Australian Standards. The floor will be fitted with 15mm compressed cement sheeting and a puddle flange before any waterproofing.
However, balconies, roofs, walls, basements and garages are all susceptible to water and also need to be waterproofed. Water may also cause damage in areas that are poorly ventilated so, where possible, ventilation needs to be improved. If not possible, then a waterproofing system should be applied.
