The image above shows a disturbing sight: a child's bedroom closet showing significant black mould growth on the ceiling and wall. This alarming mould growth is located directly beneath a leaking balcony, highlighting a critical waterproofing failure that has compromised the safety, amenity and health of the home.
For this reason alone, it's why we provide expert waterproofing consultation and inspection services to identify and address existing waterproofing issues in buildings, ensuring remedial waterproofing repairs are done correctly and in compliance with industry standards.
As a potential client, the value of our Waterproofing Consultation, Inspection, and Advisory Service lies in the comprehensive, expert-led approach we provide to ensure your property remains safe, sound, and compliant.
The nightmare often begins when you first notice the telltale signs of water damage—mould, swollen skirtings, musty smells, damp carpet, or damp spots on walls to name a few. What starts as a small issue can quickly spiral into extensive damage, threatening the integrity of your home. These signs point to a deeper waterproofing failure that, if not addressed correctly, can lead to costly repairs.
Water damage can escalate quickly, leading to structural issues, further mould growth, and significant repair costs. It’s essential to act before minor leaks become major disasters.
In waterproofing situations, clients are often expected to navigate complex repairs and compliance requirements on their own, despite lacking the necessary expertise. This can leave them vulnerable to poor workmanship and costly mistakes. That’s where we come in. With years of waterproofing experience and technical knowledge, we guide you through the process, ensuring that the waterproofing is done correctly, complies with industry standards, and protects your property long-term—so you don’t have to be the waterproofing expert, we are.
During the initial site inspection and fault diagnosis, we conduct a thorough examination of your property to uncover any existing waterproofing issues. This isn't merely a visual check; we utilise years of experience to identify waterpoofing problems that may not be immediately obvious. You'll receive a report that includes expert analysis, photographs, and tailored recommendations for remediation.
Once you select your preferred contractor for repairs, we offer an additional layer of assurance with our post-repair waterproofing inspection. This step is crucial; it ensures that all waterproofing work meets the stringent requirements of the National Construction Code (NCC), Australian Standards (AS), and Technical Data Sheets (TDS). With this independent, arms-length verification, you can rest easy knowing that the waterproofing repairs are not just completed but done correctly and to code.
Our service is designed to protect your investment and prevent the nightmare of undetected water damage. Issues that go unchecked can lead to serious consequences, including mould infestations that pose health risks, structural integrity issues that could endanger your home, and the loss of property value. By identifying and addressing waterproofing issues early, we help you avoid costly repairs and stressful situations that could disrupt your life.
Having transitioned from contractors to consultants, we have seen firsthand the urgent need for independent assessments in the waterproofing industry. Our extensive experience enables us to diagnose problems quickly and provide reliable advice, positioning us as a trusted partner in safeguarding your property.
In Victoria, anyone can perform waterproofing work without needing to be licensed or qualified, leaving homeowners vulnerable to poor waterpoofing installations. This is why keeping your selected contractors accountable is crucial. We receive so many calls from people saying they paid THOUSANDS of dollars to have a repair done, only to have it fail again within a year.
It's distressing that current regulations allow unqualified waterproofing work in such a critical area. That's why our service exists: to hold remedial and waterproofing contractors accountable, ensure compliance with industry standards, and give you peace of mind that the job is done right the first time. By conducting independent inspections, we protect you from costly repeat repairs and future water damage.
Our independent inspection service ensures that the waterproofing work is completed to the highest standard and complies with NCC, AS, and TDS requirements. By holding remedial and waterproofing contractors accountable, we help you avoid costly mistakes and ensure long-lasting, effective waterproofing solutions.
This service is especially beneficial for homeowners, property managers, builders, and businesses dealing with high-risk areas such as balconies, roofs, basements, and bathrooms. What truly sets our service apart is our independence from contractors; we are solely focused on your best interests, ensuring compliance and quality without any conflict of interest.
Choosing our service not only enhances the integrity of your property but also provides you with the assurance and confidence that the waterproofing solutions implemented are effective, compliant, and durable.
Don’t wait until a small leak turns into a costly nightmare. Let’s work together to protect your investment and ensure your property remains safe and habitable for years to come.
"There is a lack of training to design, inspect and test the waterproofing systems required ... Inadequate training in the designing of the waterproofing, and the selection of the waterproofing methods and materials best for the job, in addition to lack of training in inspection and test plans, has contributed to widespread failures in waterproofing"
