What we do
One focus — bathroom waterproofing. Everything on this page is about helping Melbourne property owners talk to us about waterproofing a bathroom or investigating a leak.
For enquiries about waterproofing a bathroom as part of a broader restoration, where the full wet area needs a new membrane before finishes go back on.
For enquiries about a shower that is leaking, staining an adjacent wall, or showing damp on the ceiling below. The starting point is working out where the water is actually coming from.
For enquiries where a bathroom was waterproofed previously but the membrane appears to have failed. Existing surfaces usually need to come up before a new membrane can be laid.
Re-tiling and other finishing work may be needed as a follow-on restoration step once waterproofing is complete. It is a related stage, not a standalone service we lead with.
How it works
Share what you know about the bathroom or the leak by phone, email or the form.
We read through the details and may ask follow-up questions to understand the situation.
We talk through what an appropriate next step could look like for your bathroom.
Only if you're comfortable, we move on to scheduling an in-person look.

Cost guide
Bathroom waterproofing costs in Melbourne are not a single number — they depend on the underlying issue, the condition of the substrate, and how easily the wet area can be accessed. The guide below walks through the factors that shape a quote and what information helps an enquiry conversation.
Frequently asked questions
It's a conversation about the bathroom in question — what's leaking or failing, when it was last waterproofed, and what you want to achieve. The team reviews the details before suggesting a next step.
Timeframes depend on the size of the bathroom, the condition of the substrate and the membrane system used. We'll talk through a realistic timeframe once we understand your specific bathroom.
Re-tiling can be needed as a follow-on restoration stage after waterproofing. We focus the conversation on bathroom waterproofing first, and only discuss tiling where it's required to complete the waterproofing work.
We take bathroom waterproofing enquiries from suburbs across Greater Melbourne — including the CBD, inner east, south-east and bayside areas.
Yes — bathroom waterproofing enquiries can be discussed in English, Mandarin or Cantonese.
