Find a waterproofer the easy way

What services do waterproofers provide?

From peeling paint to mould and mildew growth and electrical hazards, water damage can cause serious problems in homes that can put your household in danger and be expensive to fix.

Waterproofing is a vital preventive measure for areas such as bathrooms, balconies and roofs that can prevent serious problems before they happen. Whether you're building or renovating your home or repairing deteriorated caulking, waterproofing experts provide a range of services.

Bathroom waterproofing

Bathrooms are the largest wet areas in most homes, so good waterproofing is essential. Without adequate waterproofing, bathrooms and surrounding rooms are at high risk of water damage.

Waterproofing for bathrooms must conform to Australian standards, which specify the amount of waterproofing needed for each area. Bathroom walls must be waterproofed up to a certain height and bathroom floors must be fully waterproofed if they are above the ground floor or made from materials such as timber or plywood that are vulnerable to water damage.

Waterproofing balconies

As exposed surfaces, balconies are prone to water damage from rain and moisture in the air. Waterproofing should be applied to balconies when they are first built and they will need to be checked and resealed periodically.

Waterproofing a balcony first involves caulking the surface and filling any cracks before laying a waterproofing membrane and polyurethane base coat. The balcony can then be tiled or have other flooring installed above the waterproof layers. Most modern balconies also have an outlet to ensure water runs off and doesn't settle.

Waterproofing roofs

Roofs must be thoroughly waterproofed to prevent rain and other moisture from entering your loft and your home. Moisture from a leaking roof may not be detected until it has already caused severe damage or electrical hazards.

There are different methods of waterproofing a roof, depending on the profile, condition and age of the roof. These include polyurethane or liquid rubber coatings and reinforced bitumen membranes.

Caulking

Caulk is a watertight sealant that prevents water from getting into cracks and gaps around plumbing fixtures, cabinets, countertops, floors and other surfaces. Caulking also improves insulation, helping households to save on energy bills.

Caulking is a necessary service when you install a new shower or bath or carry out bathroom or kitchen renovations. It's also important to replace old caulking when it deteriorates to prevent serious water damage and associated problems.

Rising damp proofing

Rising damp occurs when moisture is trapped in the walls of a home and moves through the masonry as it tries to escape. This is a common problem in basements and older buildings that are not well ventilated or waterproofed or where waterproofing has been compromised over time.

Treating rising damp can involve removing affected plasterwork and installing a damp proofing compound before replastering. The cost of damp proofing treatments will depend on how severe the problem is.

Sealing showers

Shower enclosures are some of the most important parts of a bathroom to keep sealed and waterproof, as even a small gap can lead to significant water damage over time. Showers must be sealed effectively when installed and resealed if the seal becomes mouldy or damaged.

Waterproofers typically seal a shower by installing waterproof membranes along the walls and in the basin, after which sealant must be applied to any grout or unglazed tiles. Resealing a shower can take up to 2 hours, with most of this time spent removing the old seal.

Waterproofing pools

Waterproofing isn't only important inside the home. In-ground and above ground swimming pools also need to be properly waterproofed to avoid leaking water and to prevent the pool being damaged by chemicals.

There are different options for waterproofing a pool, depending on its material and other considerations. These include an external slab membrane installed between two layers of concrete and chlorinated rubber paint applied in a thin layer to the pool walls.

Tile and grout seepage

Tile flooring that is not properly sealed may be at risk of seepage from underground water. This can cause damage or lead to other problems such as damp developing in a home.

Waterproofing should be applied below tiles to prevent seepage and leaks. Tiles may be at risk of seepage and need resealing if they sound hollow when tapped.

Seepage can also occur between tiles if water enters through cracks in grout.

Sean and the team from Tiling Dynamix are amazing! Their professionalism, quality and attention to detail are first class. We couldn't recommend them highly enough after a total bathroom, toilet, laundry and ensuite renovation. I was blown away with their design expertise and ability take all of our inspiration, ideas and budget into account to produce spaces that are Insta and Pintrest worthy! Our job was tricky, with a number of issues to be resolved as we went. Tiling Dynamix always approached each stage with a problem solving mindset, presenting a range of options, with pros and cons, for resolving; always keeping us informed.
