Things to consider before you book
The local conditions that shape the job, the best time of year to book, and what to sort out before you choose a waterproofer.
Strata Area
Albert Park is predominantly apartments and units — body corporate approval is often needed before external work can start. Check with your owners corporation early in the process.
Body Corp Sign-Off May Be Needed
Albert Park is predominantly apartments and units. Body corporate approval is typically required before waterproofer work affecting common property, shared wiring, or building systems. Check with your owners corporation early — approval can add weeks.
Rental-Heavy Area
A large share of Albert Park 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.
Premium Finishes
Properties in Albert Park typically feature higher-end finishes and fittings. Ask your waterproofer about their experience with premium materials — the right techniques and products make a real difference with quality surfaces.
What's in a good Waterproofing quote?
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.
- 01Licence number
On the quote, and verify it before work starts.
- 02Compliance certificate
An AS 3740 certificate promised before tiling starts.
- 03Membrane brand
The exact membrane product, not just 'waterproofing'.
- 04Substrate preparation
Grinding, priming and levelling, so nothing is skipped.
- 05Number of coats
Liquid membranes need at least two coats.
- 06Flood testing
A 24-hour flood test before the tiles go on.
