Top Waterproofing related questions

You may need someone with a specialist licence for certain types of tasks, as well as additional insurance. Please make sure that you confirm that a Tasker has the relevant licence to improve your property’s waterproofing system and insurance before accepting an offer. 

On average, a waterproofing job can take one to three days to dry. However, it also varies on the area’s foundation type, material, and waterproofing method. 

Consider these factors when selecting a waterproofing company or contractor: 

  • Look for a reputable and licensed professional with experience in waterproofing. 

  • Check for positive customer reviews, past projects, and evidence of quality workmanship. 

  • Ensure they use high-quality waterproofing materials and products. 

The best roof waterproofing method depends on roof type, climate, and budget. Options include bituminous membranes, liquid-applied membranes, and elastomeric coatings. Consult a professional contractor for expert advice tailored to your roof’s specific needs and on waterproofing products you can use to DIY leaks when you spot any wet wall areas.

Suggested reads about Waterproofing

What do waterproofing contractors offer?

Water issues can come from many sources. Areas like bathrooms that are commonly wet are the most prone, but you can also be a victim of water damage through burst pipes, leaky roofs or torrential rain. 

Waterproofing contractors and some local handymen offer professional services to protect your property from water damage. They specialise in waterproofing solutions, such as assessing vulnerabilities, applying waterproofing materials, conducting repairs, and ensuring a watertight seal. Trustworthy waterproofing contractors near you provide expertise to safeguard your home or building from potential water-related issues.

Bathroom waterproofing

Waterproofing contractors or bathroom tiling specialists can help seal your bathroom when building a new one or renovating your old space, as well as leaking showers. Bathroom waterproofers can waterproof your bathroom flooring and walls should you need to reseal your bathroom after its construction. 

Roof waterproofing

Waterproofing your roof is vital to keep your property’s or roofing membranes’ structural integrity intact. Roof waterproofing specialists identify areas prone to leaks, apply roof waterproofing membranes or coatings, repair existing damage, and ensure a watertight seal. Hiring a pro to waterproof your roof enhances roof durability and avoids water-related issues.

Wall waterproofing

A burst pipe, rising dampness or mould growth can cause problems in your home. Wall waterproofing is one of the steps to repair the damage on your interior walls or retaining walls and avoid the same case in the future. When looking for waterproofing near you, look for wall painting experts or local tradies experienced in wall waterproofing. They can come by, repair the damage and give your walls a fresh new look. 

Floor and tile waterproofing

A tiler can remove tiles, clean up your grout and set your new tiles. Their waterproofing service can come as an add-on cost. Ask your tile and floor waterproofers if they also do tile cleaning and sealing, so you can hire a professional that offers the services you require for a complete job. Consider concrete waterproofing contractors near you as well, as they can safeguard your driveways and footpaths.

Waterproofing of Ground Level balcony threshold

$2,500

Hawthorn East VIC, Australia

30th Jan 2026

Hello! The floor level of my apartment is below my ground level balcony outside. Over the years, there has been water ingress, likely due to: water saturating the grout under the tiles, wicking sideways and overwhelming the old membrane, and entering the apartment. I have removed the tiles closest to the threshold and attempted to waterproof to no avail. I'm planning to properly waterproof the area, then reinstall tiles with epoxy grout or concrete. I would like someone to come and: 1. Prepare the slab (clean etc) 2. Waterproof, using primer, fillet + bond breaker tape, waterproofing membrane etc 3. Install the epoxy grout/concrete and tiles (if possible) I would like someone with a bit of experience in this field. Happy to provide materials or reimburse along the way. Also happy to hear any other ideas or feedback. Area is about 14m in length, 180mm wide. Flexible with timing, however realistically this will need to be done within a the next month while it is not raining. Thanks! Luke.

Licensed Waterproofer – Inspect Existing Bathroom Waterproofing

$200

Parkdale VIC, Australia

29th Jan 2026

I’m seeking a licensed and insured waterproofer (Melbourne) to inspect existing bathroom waterproofing. 2 coats of waterproofing has already been applied and appears to be in good condition, however no compliance certificate was provided by the original contractor. If the waterproofing is generally sound, I’m looking for someone who would also be open to remediating the work if required (e.g. final coat / minor detailing) and then issuing a waterproofing compliance certificate. Scope of this task (inspection only): - Inspect the existing waterproofing membrane (shower + bathroom floor) - Assess whether it appears compliant - Advise whether the waterproofing is capable of being certified - Identify any remedial work (if required) to achieve certification Additional info: - 8 tiles have been glued down in non-critical areas only (where the toilet and laundry cabinetry will be) - No tiles have been glued down in the shower base - I’m happy for the tiles to be lifted if required for inspection Important: - This task is for inspection and advice only - No remediation or certification is expected as part of this task Requirements: - Licensed waterproofer in Victoria - Public liability insurance - Experience inspecting and remediating existing waterproofing Photos: In the attached photos, the majority of tiles on the floor are loose and can be removed to inspect the membrane. There are 8 tiles at the back that have been glued down.
