What We Do

Waterproofing membrane inspection with measuring tape on concrete substrate

Waterproofing Design & Specification

Design reviews, material selection, and specification development for wet areas, balconies, roofs, basements, and podiums. Compliance to AS 4654.1, AS 4654.2, AS 3740, and NCC 2022. We get involved before construction starts, not after problems appear.

Waterproofing design drawings and compliance documentation on desk

Membrane Inspection & Testing

Hold point inspections at every critical stage — substrate preparation, primer application, membrane installation, drainage, flashings, and penetrations. Thickness testing against specifications. Transition detailing at junctions — the areas most likely to fail.

Leak investigation with moisture meter on concrete wall

Leak Investigation & Remediation

Systematic leak source identification through non-destructive and invasive investigation methods. Forensic assessment of failed waterproofing systems. Remediation design and specification for residential and commercial buildings.

Compliance documentation and inspection reports on desk

Compliance & Documentation

Photo registers, defect schedules, design declarations, and inspection reports formatted and referenced for engineering reports, tender packages, and NCAT proceedings. Evidence-based documentation — not opinion.

No certificate, and someone is asking for one?

Selling or buying — wet-area work flagged The building report said “no certification sighted” and settlement is waiting. An independent evidence report answers the question without pulling up the tiles.
Council or a certifier is asking A Building Information Certificate application, an occupation certificate, unauthorised works — and the installer who could certify is long gone.
Renovating now, not yet tiled The cheap version of all of the above: record the waterproofing before it disappears under tiles, so this page is never about you.

How We Work

1

Consult

We review your waterproofing design, materials, and project scope. We confirm hold points, compliance requirements, and inspection strategy before anyone steps on site.

2

Inspect

On-site inspection at each hold point. Substrate, membrane, drainage, finishes, flashings, and penetrations checked against spec. Thickness testing and junction transition assessment at every stage.

3

Report

Photo registers, defect schedules, and inspection notes delivered formatted and referenced. Ready to drop into your engineering report or tender package.
