Remedial Waterproofing & Balcony Upgrade

At Elite Australian Engineering, we specialise in high-quality remedial waterproofing solutions to protect buildings from water damage and structural deterioration. This project involved a complete balcony waterproofing system upgrade, ensuring compliance with Australian standards and long-term durability.

Project Scope:

Demolition of Existing Finishes – Removal of all deteriorated materials to expose the substrate for thorough assessment and preparation.
New Screed to Falls Installation – Precision-engineered screed system to improve drainage and prevent water pooling.
ARDEX WPM 1000 Waterproofing System – Application of a premium waterproofing membrane for superior moisture protection.
Stormwater Drainage Upgrade – Installation of a new stormwater system to enhance water flow and prevent future leaks.
New Balcony Sliding Doors – Replacement with modern, weather-resistant sliding doors to enhance aesthetics, functionality, and thermal efficiency.

By implementing cutting-edge waterproofing technology and expert remedial strategies, we restored the balcony’s structural integrity while enhancing its longevity and weather resistance.

Project Details

Location: Ryde NSW

Client Representative: Strata United

Project Budget: $150,000

Project Commenced: 10 February 2025

Project Completed: 24 March 2025

Reason for Remedial Works:
The existing waterproofing system had significantly deteriorated, leading to persistent water ingress into the unit during every rain event. Cracks in the surface, poor drainage, and failed membrane integrity allowed moisture to seep through, compromising the structural integrity of the balcony and interior spaces. Over time, this ongoing exposure to water not only caused visible damage, such as peeling paint and swelling of internal finishes, but also posed a serious risk of mold growth and concrete deterioration. To prevent further damage and ensure long-term protection, a comprehensive remedial waterproofing solution was essential.
