Bathroom Waterproofing in Melbourne

Membranes, Screeding and Falls Done Right the First Time

Bathroom Waterproofing Questions

How long does bathroom waterproofing take?

Membrane application typically takes a day, followed by the manufacturer required cure time before tiling can start. We confirm exact timing for the system used.

Do I need to waterproof the whole bathroom floor?

Wet areas such as the shower base and walls to the required height need full membrane coverage. The rest of the floor is assessed based on layout and water exposure.

Can waterproofing be done without removing tiles?

For a full waterproofing job, old tiles generally need to come up so the membrane bonds directly to the substrate. We can discuss your specific situation on site.
