Pricing guide
Cost is driven by the extent of the waterproofing failure and whether tiles or the substrate need to be removed or rebuilt. Localised patch repairs are typically less expensive than a standard remedial package, but hidden substrate damage can often push a job into a higher-scope repair. Callout, travel and after-hours attendance may also affect the final price.
Size and extent of the failure
Smaller, visible failures that need only a local patch usually take less time and materials than widespread failures affecting large areas.
Tile and surface removal required
Jobs that require removing tiles or other finishes to access the membrane add labour and can change the overall scope.
Substrate condition and hidden damage
Undiscovered issues beneath the membrane, such as deteriorated substrate, often increase complexity and may move the job into a higher-scope profile.
Need for hazardous-material handling
If the site involves hazardous materials or specialist handling, the work typically needs additional precautions and can increase effort.
Callout, travel and timing
Remote locations, longer travel, or after-hours attendance usually add to the total cost and affect scheduling.
