What is shower waterproofing?
Shower waterproofing refers to making the floor and the walls around the shower impermeable to water. In the past, most homeowners believed that installing tiles alone prevented water from passing through. However, tiles are not really waterproof and water from the shower can still pass through them.
A build-up of moisture in the structure of the property due to water seepage can eventually lead to severe structural damages. Waterproofing helps to avoid this issue by completely keeping the water sealed away. To waterproof a shower, one would have to install a waterproofing membrane over the walls and the floor.
Do you really need professional waterproofing services?
Well, whether you can waterproof your shower by yourself or need a professional’s assistance for it depends on which part of Australia you reside in. In certain localities, it is mandatory to hire a professional. However, even if your local regulations allow you to carry out the waterproofing by yourself, it is advisable to opt for professional services. This is because installing a waterproofing membrane is not a simple task. It is necessary to pay attention to several factors.
All these small details play an integral role in ensuring that the waterproofing is actually effective. Quite naturally, you may not know the best practices to install a waterproofing membrane if you lack professional experience. This is why, hiring reputed companies like us for shower sealing and waterproofing is important.
How do you know if the current waterproofing is ineffective?
Often, homeowners do not know that their shower waterproofing is failing until the leaking water starts damaging the property. However, this is avoidable if you know what signs to look out for.
In case it turns out that the waterproofing is ineffective, you have two options. You may demolish the walls and the floors by removing all the tiles and clear the surfaces so that you can apply the waterproofing membrane once more. The other option is to hire and get the surfaces coated with a layer of epoxy. To contact Budget Seal, simply call us at 1300 907 104.
