Waterproofing Process
Read about our process
Waterproofing is the process of applying a waterproof barrier around a wet area.
The waterproofing of bathrooms, laundries and balconies are regulated and require a specific application process and product selection. These processes and products must comply with Australian Standards and Building Codes.
Applying the correct process and products to your job prevents moisture/water from seeping through and damaging the underlying structure of the building.
We utilise industry expects and quality trade suppliers to ensure any challenging job is supported by the right products and application processes.
Example
As an example, if we were to recommend a water-based flexible waterproofing membrane for your constructed bathroom, the product we recommend would be specifically designed for use under ceramic and stone tile finishes;
The unique formulation of a product like this would provide excellent workability and film build;
You would have a Class III (flexible) membrane that meets with AS 4858 & AS 4654
It would be fast curing;
The environment would have a low VOC response;
The membrane would have a fibre reinforcement;
Our finish would be compatible with a wide range of tile adhesives;
It would provide a permanently flexible barrier;
This application would be completely resistant to re-emulsification (when fully cured);
Our application would have excellent adhesion to a wide variety of substrates;
You would receive a 7-year warranty on our workmanship and product.
