Recent Waterproofing reviews

Adam is a fantastic communicator and incredible efficient. He is punctual, true to his word and an expert at what he does. He’s also very trustworthy and honest. I had major leaking issues in my shower which affected the adjoining wall and he pulled back the tiles, removed all cement and waterproofed the area, added original tiles and grouted the area as well as waterproofing the walls of the shower with spray.

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.

Moisture readings, shower waterproofing repair - 2 bathrooms

$5,000

Mount Louisa QLD 4814, Australia

20th Aug 2026

Investment property at Mount Louisa 4814. Two showers failed flood tests. Before choosing a repair method I need reliable moisture readings. Timing: property is vacant from 6 September. Readings to be taken after at least 5 days of no shower use, so results reflect trapped moisture rather than recent showering. Mid-September onwards. Stage 1 — Moisture assessment, both bathrooms 1. Readings to the reverse face of the shower walls (adjoining bedroom and hallway) — these stay dry in normal use and best indicate water migrating through 2. Readings to shower base perimeter, hob and wall/floor junctions 3. Check for drummy or delaminated tiles 4. Condition of grout and silicone 5. Written findings with readings recorded, plus photos Note: existing inspection holes were cut in the bedroom and hallway walls during earlier investigation and may give cavity access. Stage 2 — Repair, only if Stage 1 supports it If the substrate is dry and sound, quote to restore the watertight seal: regrout, replace failed silicone, seal wall/floor junctions and around the waste, reseal the screen. State your warranty period. If readings show the substrate is wet, I don't want a seal applied over a wet substrate. Plumber testing dated 1 July 2026 reports that: Main — pressure test passed, flood test failed with water escaping from the shower base. Holes and deterioration in the silicone at the tap penetrations. Ensuite — pressure test passed, flood test failed. No other plumbing defects found. Include in your offer: QBCC licence number and class Stage 1 fee, separate from any repair Type of moisture meter you use Warranty offered on resealing, in writing Public liability insurance Availability from mid-September Access via managing agent. I'm interstate, so written findings and photos matter. Budget - not sure at this stage.

Shower waterproofing, retile

$1,500

St James WA 6102, Australia

19th Aug 2026

I am looking for an experienced bathroom waterproofing specialist, tiler and leak detection professional to inspect and repair a shower leak at my property in St James, WA. Background: Approximately 10 months ago, I had a shower regrouting and sealing service completed by a specialist company to address water ingress. After the repair, the issue appeared to be resolved for around 6–7 months. Recently, signs of water damage have reappeared on the adjoining wall, including bubbling and peeling paint, suggesting that water may still be penetrating behind the shower tiles. The previous contractor has advised that residual moisture can take 18–24 months to dry out, but I am concerned because the symptoms disappeared for several months before returning. What I need: Inspect the shower and adjoining wall to determine whether there is ongoing water ingress or simply residual moisture. For peace of mind, I would like to just replace the internal shower pipework, rewaterproof and retile. Additional Information: The shower is tiled. Photos of the affected areas provided. I suspect the issue may involve failed waterproofing behind the tiles and pipework, but I require professional assessment.

Shower rebuild/ Waterproofing Quote

Elwood VIC 3184, Australia

Following recent complaint from neighbouring Unit about damp wall had Plumber investigate. Report indicates "Spray tested shower cubicle and found immediate water escaping through grout lines. • Used thermal imaging and confirmed water tracking from shower area, likely beneath tiles, contributing to water ingress into neighbouring property." Think shower walls and base need grouting and waterproofing then rebuild of shower including tiles and walls and probably new shower screen. We think physical inspection needed to provide accurate quote.

Timely inspection for quote.
