The detail
What a good waterproofing quote includes
A good quote spells out how the job is priced and what's covered — labour, materials, prep and clean-up — so you're comparing like for like. Check what each waterproofer's quote covers before you choose.
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.
Flood testing. A 24-hour flood test before the tiles go on.

Local conditions
Things that can impact your job
These factors affect waterproofing work in this area — worth discussing with your tradie.
Seasonal Temperature Extremes
Saltia gets big seasonal temperature swings — materials need to cope with summer heat and cool winter nights. Flexible, versatile products handle these conditions best.
Cooler Months Give Better Results
Saltia has genuinely hot summers — heat affects how exterior materials cure and set. Scheduling exterior waterproofer work for the cooler months often gives a better result. When summer work is unavoidable, your tradie will work around the temperature — application early, prep and shade-side work during the hottest part of the day.
Winter Frost
Saltia gets light winter frosts — worth getting any exposed pipes insulated before the cold months hit.
Elevated Termite Risk
Termite risk is elevated in Saltia. If your job involves timber or ground contact, discuss termite management with your tradie. Regular inspections are recommended.
Consider a Whole-House Water Softener
Saltia has very hard water — a whole-house water softener is worth considering. Without one, expect faster wear on hot water systems, appliances, and irrigation drippers.
Your Saltia waterproofing checklist
- Products rated for wide temperature range
- Schedule exterior waterproofer work for cooler months
- Insulate any exposed pipework
- Regular termite inspections
- Consider whole-house water softener
