Waterproofing and balcony repairs in Sydney

Balcony, bathroom, roof and planter box waterproofing for apartment buildings and commercial properties across Sydney.

We repair balconies end to end: the membrane, the tiles, the drainage and the edges, so the whole balcony works as it should.

Remedial waterproofing is our everyday work, from a single bathroom to every balcony in a block.

Balcony repairs, done in the right order

A lasting balcony repair starts underneath the tiles.

We remove the tiles and bedding, check the slab, set the falls so water runs to the drain, apply the membrane with proper upturns at doors and walls, and then retile.

Where the slab edge or balustrade fixings need attention, we repair the concrete at the same time.

You get a balcony that drains properly and is ready for years of use.

Bathrooms and wet areas

We strip and rebuild showers and bathrooms in occupied apartments, keeping dust and noise contained.

Membranes are applied to the relevant Australian Standards, with the shower recess, floor wastes and wall junctions detailed carefully.

Our team handles the tiling and finishing too, so the apartment owner deals with 1 builder from start to finish.

Waterproofing for strata buildings

Balconies and roofs are often common property, so the work is approved by the owners corporation and coordinated by the strata manager.

We give a clear scope and quote the committee can approve, plan the works around residents, and keep the strata manager updated at each stage.

For remedial work on Class 2 apartment buildings, we're a registered building practitioner under the Design and Building Practitioners Act.

Questions

Waterproofing and balconies: questions we're asked.

Can you waterproof a balcony over the existing tiles?

Sometimes, for a balcony in good condition, a clear coating system can be applied over the tiles.

Where water is already getting under the tiles, we remove them so the membrane can be done properly.

How long does a balcony repair take?

It depends on the size of the balcony, the curing times of the materials and the weather, and we give you a timeframe with the quote.

Can residents stay in their apartment during the work?

Yes, in most cases.

We work from the balcony side where we can and keep the apartment clean and secure.

Do you replace the tiles too?

Yes, removing and replacing the tiles is part of the job, so you deal with 1 team.

Do you waterproof bathrooms in apartments?

Yes, we strip, waterproof and retile bathrooms and showers in occupied apartments across Sydney.
