Common Waterproofing Jobs in Sunninghill

Leaks Between Units

  • Common causes. Showers, balconies, geysers and pipes are as likely as the roof.
  • Leak tests. A flood test of the shower or balcony shows whether the membrane has failed.
  • Cost split. The cause decides whether the owner or the body corporate pays.

Storm Season in Sunninghill

Summer storms quickly reveal blocked outlets on complex roofs and balconies. Book outlet cleaning before the rains and larger work for the dry season.

What Affects the Quote

  • Retiling. Lifting tiles and retiling is often the largest cost.
  • Matching tiles. Finding matching tiles for a partial repair can be hard.
  • Access. Upper-floor work and parking for contractors in complexes.
  • Cause. A plumbing leak needs a plumber, not waterproofing.

Before You Renovate

  • Membrane first. Bathrooms and balconies should get a waterproof membrane under the new tiles.
  • Curing time. The membrane must cure before tiling; ask how long.
  • Corners and drains. Fillets, bond-breakers and drain collars are where leaks start.

Questions to Ask a Sunninghill Contractor

  • How will you confirm the shower or balcony is the cause?
  • Is a regrout enough, or does the membrane need replacing?
  • Which membrane will go under the tiles, and how is it tested?
  • Will you coordinate with the body corporate and neighbours?
  • What guarantee is given in writing?

Waterproofing Sunninghill FAQs

Is a regrout enough to fix a leaking shower?

Only if the membrane underneath is sound. A leak test shows whether the problem is grout and silicone or the membrane.

Who pays for a leak into the unit below?

Usually the owner of the unit where the leak starts. Common property leaks are the body corporate's responsibility.

Do I need waterproofing under new bathroom tiles?

Yes for showers and wet floors. It is far cheaper to do during a renovation than afterwards.

How long does a shower redo take?

Often several days, because the membrane and tile adhesive need time to cure.
