VVS Waterproofing
VVS crew grinding and preparing a concrete substrate — Sydney waterproofing project

Screeds
& Falls.

The preparation beneath the membrane. Substrate correction, remedial screeds and falls to drainage.

Screeds & Falls in Sydney & Greater Sydney

Class 1 · Class 2 · Class 3 Buildings — NSW

A membrane can only bond to what is underneath it, and it can only shed water if the surface falls to a drain. Preparation is where most waterproofing outcomes are decided.

We grind, repair, re-fall and prime as a documented stage of the works rather than an assumption made by the trade that follows.

Scope of Works

  • Grinding and mechanical preparation
  • Laitance and contamination removal
  • Crack routing and structural patching
  • Remedial screeds to correct falls
  • Set-downs, hobs and thresholds
  • Priming to the system requirement

Detail

What Matters Here.

Substrate

Moisture content, laitance, contamination and cracking assessed and corrected before priming.

Falls

Flat or reversed falls are rebuilt so water reaches the outlet under the finished surface.

Interfaces

Set-downs and thresholds set to allow compliant upstand heights and finished floor levels.
