WHY DECKS & BALCONIES FAIL
Decks and balconies are fully exposed structures. Without correct falls, drainage, and movement detailing, water is forced into the structure, leading to repeated failures.
Poor falls
& water pooling
Failed waterproofing membranes
Cracked screeds
& movement joints
Incorrect drainage & outlets
HOW WE FIX IT - PROPERLY
Deck and balcony leaks cannot be solved by surface coatings alone — correct preparation, detailing, and waterproofing are essential.
1. Inspection & Ingress Analysis
We identify the true source of ingress by assessing falls, drainage outlets, junctions, upstands, and membrane condition. No guesswork — only measured diagnosis.
2. Removal of Failed Waterproofing
All compromised waterproofing layers, loose screeds, and failed finishes are removed to expose a sound substrate suitable for corrective work.
3. Corrective Structural Work
Falls, joints, and detailing are corrected to ensure effective drainage. Where required, screeds are reformed and outlets repositioned to prevent future water build-up.
4. Premium Waterproofing System
A high-performance waterproofing system is applied, selected to suit the deck or balcony’s intended use, exposure, and movement requirements.
