Worth knowing: getting two or three quotes is the simplest way to land a fair price — and it costs you nothing.
Licence number. On the quote, and verify it before work starts.
Compliance certificate. An AS 3740 certificate promised before tiling starts.
Membrane brand. The exact membrane product, not just 'waterproofing'.
Substrate preparation. Grinding, priming and levelling, so nothing is skipped.
Number of coats. Liquid membranes need at least two coats.

Local conditions
Things that can impact your job
These factors affect waterproofing work in this area — worth discussing with your tradie.
Heat-Tolerant Products Needed
Gillen's hot, dry conditions put stress on rigid exterior materials. Flexible products that handle wide temperature swings work best here.
Heat-Tolerant Products and Cooler-Month Scheduling
Gillen has extreme summer heat — exterior waterproofer work is effectively limited to early mornings or the cooler months. Heat-tolerant product specs and early scheduling are essential here.
Pipe Frost Protection
Regular frost in Gillen makes pipe insulation essential for any exposed plumbing — subfloor pipes, outdoor taps, and hot water systems in unheated areas are all at risk.
Elevated Termite Risk
Termite risk is elevated in Gillen. If your job involves timber or ground contact, discuss termite management with your tradie. Regular inspections are recommended.
Rental-Heavy Area
A large share of Gillen properties are rentals. If you're a tenant, check whether your lease requires landlord approval before waterproofer work. For end-of-lease services, book early — demand can be high.
Best time of year for exterior waterproofing in Gillen
